Sunset Panoramic Kuching

Yo, how's everyone. Doubt much people read my blog, cept for looking at the pictures. Anyway, was freed from the clutches of the evil assignments and reports and freedom for a breather for a few days, went out shooting with a few buddies of mine so enjoy the photos.


Sunset. Using it as my wallpaper currently. Grab it if you like it. Just click on the picture. Remember, CC2 licence.

Now, back to studies and revision for finals!

Holiday, here I come.

Tara~

Another Beginning

Uni has started and wasn't so eventful. Managed to catch up with some old friends who were back and running around attending lectures and classes (wait, on a first week? Oh well.)

Weather was fine before that, then it just poured. Not that I'm complaining but hot weather couple with a crazy rain (Hey, welcome to Kuching) which never lasted for an hour (usually it does) and you get a very humid and wet air.


Bah, rained and stopped. What the... （￣へ￣）

After attending lectures, I reluctantly went home cause lecture was cut short due to a PC-less tutorial class. Besides, the lecturer has already prepared the stuff on slides, so wasted some time talking crap and stuff with the lecturer instead.

Home, this is how the weather was.


Around 30 mins or so later.


There.


The holidays have been fun, minus the boring part of doing nothing for days on end. Entertained myself on animes and music and my NDS games (Chrono Trigger is nice, so is Zelda and FF4 but all is near its end and I didn't want to finish them).

Had a few outings


A few gathering with a bunch of people


Some nice shots


And lovely mother nature doing her thing she's good at


Some boring outings also not to mention


And not so-much-fun Chinese New Year also. Feels like some other day.


Missing KL, or more precisely, Selangor


Drinking with my cousin


And the fun I had with my cousins


What a life.

PS: I noticed I haven't updated my sidebar. Owh well.

Titleless

Well, CNY is here and since I'm quite late, Happy Chinese New Year to those celebrating and happy holidays to those who aren't (well, its already the 3rd day so most of those working are back working already.)

Enjoy the shot I took on the eve's of the Lunar New Year.



=D

Paintball in Kuching 2nd Round

This time, we all went loco and headed out for a fight again on the 4th day of Raya (well, it was a holiday and everyone needed a break from the constant nag by lecturers and assignments biting our arse) and grab a reservation in Sentosa Sports Center. You can find more information on the website and I do recommend it, aside from the little complain that the lighting is tad poor and the place is tad small. Rest, its good.

I'll let the picture do the talking. Forgive me for the not so good pictures and I had to tinker with it quite a lot to fix it as it wasn't taken by me. I was inside marking people instead with a marker!


2 Japanese friends new to paintball. Another friend was telling them what to do and whats not.


Ready!


*Peaking~*


*piew~ piew~ piew~*


Next round!


Military training?


One on one showdown!




*Aim~ aim~*


That dude is hiding.





"Go! Go! Go!" *running for cover*


Er... Commando maybe?




SWAT tactical style maybe. I reckon they both watched too much movies.


Sneaking around....


Ah. The marker. Tippmann 98 Custom with CO2 tank.


Ha, just had to do this.

Hrm...

Well, thats all. Hope it sparks the eagerness for those readers who want to try paintball. Its fun and safe, apart from the bruises.

Owh, did I mention the ground is sand? You can slide around but I don't really like it. Cannot sprint properly. All that energy absorbed into the sand. Wastage.

Lack of Post

Hrm.... Work took pratically 90% of my time, leaving 10% of that for sleep and bit of entertainment during the 1 month holiday.

Now, uni has started, grades were good and finally, back to studying again and getting stress over assignments and also finals.

During the transistion of work and going back to uni, I went for the Sarawak Regatta 2008, and gotten myself soaked as well as enjoying the race from the regatta.

Pictures for you to enjoy.


Trying to overtake.


Sinking boat. "Man Overboard!"


D80 Cameraman

After a few hours, heavy downpour followsuit and the race was held off due to thunderstorm and the boat paddlers all scramble out of the water.


Silver veil


Hrm.

Enjoy.

Akiyame Outing

Well, like I said in the previous post, I was invited to join teh Akiyamers for their cosplay outing+gathering+activity+meeting? (Okay, I'm not sure about the meeting though.)

Anyway, reached there near noon and the sunlight was so harsh, I wanted to rob a neutral density filter off someone but no one has it. Owh well, I let the white balance to take care of the job, but not much effective.

So, on with the pictures!


Another nice wallpaper!






Well, another nice wallpaper but....*wrong direction* *should have taken in landscape mode* T_T


Naruto trying to do crane style kung-fu




Chouji watching out for people who wants to steal his food


Result from waking up too early and sleeping too late

Chouji's jealous of people dating, or is he spying?




Eek! Something got stuck on mah ribbons!

Priceless shot!

Another group shot


Weird pose mode


Naruto went Egyptian, and Zoro showed me his arse.


Now when did they exchange weapons?


Hey, don't fall!


......


*speechless* Though its nice.


300mm focal. Details is still retained. Not bad for a non-VR lens.


Barrel distortion.


Macro!

So, that wraps up the photoshoot from Akiyame at Cat Museum @ DBKU. The weather was burning hot with harsh light. Even with a hood for the lens, I still get stray light, lucky it was reduced with my cap. XD

So, at night, headed over to yen's place to chill a little before heading home and too this.


I love the lighting.

Enjoy.

PS: Akiyame people, I'll pass you the photos to either Eichi or Yen or Kenan during the I've Anime meeting. Hopefully I remember.
