Israel Kamakawiwo'ole...

2008-10-27T19:55:00.006+08:00

This evening my twin and i watched a movie "Meet Joe Black"-starred by Brad Pit as the "death". Great movie.!!. While watching the movie i've felt asleep and been awaked by a phone call from my girlfriend. By the time, the movie came to it's end already.. and a wonderful song came to it's end.. I really touch by the song.. wonderful song. Then i've searched through the internet about this song.. i've found out that the song was sang by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, Hawaiian .. it was really touch my heart when i've found Israel was died since 26 June 1997.. almost 11 years ago!!!... and i just found out this song by today.. This is the video.. RIP.. May God Bless Your Soul...
*All the story about this guy stated on the video..*

The lyric
Somewhere over the rainbow/ what a wonderful world.

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?
Well I see trees of green and red roses too,
I'll watch then bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white and the brightness of day
I like the dark and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands saying, How do you do?
They're really saying, I, I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more than we'll know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?

Canon EOS Experience Seminar

2008-09-22T22:10:00.007+08:00

Last Sunday, i have attended the 2nd Canon EOS Experience Seminarheld at Grand Ballroom, Shangi-La Tanjung Aru Resort. Great seminar, lot of photographer- amatuer,enthusiast and pro came to join this seminar. Great opportunity for me and all of the participants-free breakfast, free lunch there wihout any admission fee. :). I have great time there and get lot of info about the latest technology from Canon - from their camera, lenses and to their imaging system. Kaz Chua, the potrait sifu from west malaysia do gave me some inspiration with the light techniques. And lastly we have chances to shot their models for the competition. Here some of my shot at the Seminar.

Look into my eyes.....

The 15mm Fish Eye Lense - love this!!

2008-09-22T10:24:00.010+08:00

I shot this pictures using fish eye lens on Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III.. nice lense and camera I think.. i've tried this machine.. but dont know how to operate.. maybe i am not familiar with it or because it is not so user friendly for me.. my Nikon have tw0 buttons dial to set my apperture and my shutter.. while this machine need to press another button and then you will need to use the same dial to set shutter/apperture.. however still the good and massive machine for me.. and I still with my Nikon!! Nothing gonna change it.. Go.. go Nikonian!!.. See how the fish eye effect on the floor and wall.. i felt in love with this so-called "fish eye".. I think that i need to get this baby.. and of course Nikon Lense.. :D

Oh God.. I've been infected by conjunctivitis!!

2008-08-30T14:43:00.000+08:00

This is not my eyes.. :)

Oh.. I am so suffered with this "red eyes"- Fortunately just infected only on my left eye. If both ? For god sakes- i really hope NO. For those with the simptom of this disease, consult your doctor now.. Ehehehe unless you want to experience it. Here i attached some article about the disease...

Red eye: Also called conjunctivitis. Redness or irritation of the conjunctivae, the membranes on the inner part of the eyelids and the membranes covering the whites of the eyes. These membranes react to a wide range of bacteria, viruses, allergy-provoking agents, irritants and toxic agents. Viral and bacterial forms of conjunctivitis are common in childhood.
The leading cause of a red eye is virus infection. Viral pink eye is usually associated with more of a watery discharge, not green or yellow in color, and is frequently associated with viral cold-like symptoms. The eyelids may be swollen. Sometimes looking at bright lights is painful. While viral pink eye, may not require an antibiotic, the doctor should see the child, as occasionally this form of pink eye can be associated with infection of the cornea, (the clear portion of the front of the eyeball). This infection must be correctly detected and treated. Viral pink eye is highly contagious.
The bacteria that most commonly cause pink eye are staphylococcus, pneumococcus, and streptococcus. Symptoms include eye pain, swelling, redness, and a moderate to large amount of discharge, usually yellow or greenish in color. The discharge commonly accumulates after sleep. The eyelids may be stuck together requiring a warm wash cloth applied to the eyes to remove the discharge. This bacterial pink eye responds to repeated warm wash cloths applied to the eyes and antibiotic eye drops or ointment.
Chlamydia is a form a bacterial that is an uncommon form of pink eye in the U.S., but is very common in Africa and the Middle Eastern countries. It can cause pink eye in adults and neonates. It is a cause of pink eye in adolescents and adults that can be sexually transmitted. Chlamydia pink eye is typically treated with tetracycline (except in children less than eight years old, because of possible teeth discoloration) or erythromycin.
Allergic pink eye is usually accompanied by intense itching, tearing, and swelling of the eye membranes. Frequent causes include seasonal pollens, animal dander, and dust. It is frequently seasonal, and goes along with other typical "allergy" symptoms such as sneezing, itchy nose, or scratchy throat. Cold moist wash clothes applied to the eyes and over-the-counter decongestant eye drops give welcome relief. Your doctor can prescribe stronger medications if these remedies are not adequate.
Chemical pink eye can result when any irritating substance enters the eyes. Common offending irritants are household cleaners, sprays of any kind, smoke, smog, and industrial pollutants. Prompt, thorough washing of the eyes with very large amounts of water is very important.
Persistent conjunctivitis can be a sign of an uncommon underlying illness in the body. Most often these are rheumatic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. Conjunctivitis is also seen in Kawasaki's disease (a rare disease associated with fever in infants and young children) and certain inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease.
Bright redness of the whites of the eyes can also occur when the tiny blood vessels covering the whites of the eyes rupture from trauma or changes in pressure within the head (for example, after forceful laughing or vomiting, when diving under water, or even bending upside down). This condition is called subconjunctival hemorrhage, and, while it can appear impressive, it is generally harmless

Attention!!: Nikon Corporation Announce Newest DX-format DSLR, D90

2008-08-29T14:33:00.000+08:00

Stunning 12.3-megapixel image quality, broad control and the world’s first* digital SLR movie function combine to deliver unsurpassed creative freedom in a D-SLR.

TOKYO – Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce the introduction of its newest DX-format digital SLR, the D90. More than just a new camera, the D90 represents a new era of digital SLR fun and creativity.
The first thing that will amaze photographers about the D90 is its stunning image quality, which takes its inspiration from Nikon’s flagship DX-format digital SLR, the D300. The D90’s image sensor and 12.3 effective megapixels combine with Nikon’s exclusive EXPEED image processing to deliver outstanding images featuring fine details, smooth tones, rich colors and low noise across a wide ISO sensitivity range.
The D90 is the world’s first* digital SLR camera with a movie shooting function that delivers genuinely cinematic results, enhanced by the creatively shallow depth of field made possible by the DX-format sensor. This is further refined by the optical quality and broad selection of NIKKOR lenses — the same lenses relied upon by professional photographers the world over. Thanks to the D90’s large image sensor, D-Movie images exhibit less noise than those of a typical camcorder, most notably in low-light situations.
The D90 also provides remarkable performance and operability, featuring Nikon’s exclusive Scene Recognition System that advances precision in auto focus, auto exposure, and auto white balance in diverse shooting situations. Live View mode allows shooting while confirming the subject on the large 3-in., approx. 920k-dot high-density color LCD and offers three contrast-detect AF modes to allow photographers to focus on any point in the frame, enabling a greater variety of composition. In addition to wide and normal area AF, the D90 offers face priority AF in Live View mode for even sharper pictures of people.
All of these powerful features and more are housed in a compact, comfortable-to-hold body, with intuitive controls. In other words, the D90 is a camera that will satisfy the requirements of passionate photographers who demand superior image quality and crave exciting new photographic possibilities.

Merdeka!! Merdeka!! Merdeka!!

2008-08-29T01:09:00.000+08:00

On this 31st August, we will celebrate our 51st Independence Day of Malaysia. 51 years in peace, harmony and continuing the glory of our nation. As Malaysian, I am proud of this Malaysian, that was built under the courages and hardwork of the late leader such as Tunku Abdul Rahman - Our Father of Independence. He dedicated his life to achieve independence without thinking of any benefits to himself. He wanted that for the nation. Nowadays, lots of people want to become leader- but not to struggle to achieve something for the nation, but to achieve something for the benefits of themselves!!. However, the important things is to stay together- to be strong in one nation ignoring what race you are, what religion you are in and what level you in the society. so, in this joyful of our 51 years of freedom. Let us held our hand together and shout with our spirit to love this country.. MERDEKA.. MERDEKA.. MERDEKA..!!!
