was too busy to upload what i have for the past 2 days..

here goes;

date taken 03 January 2011
olympus point and shoot digicam FE230

was preparing my cam as i was supposed to go and shoot some photos of a completed factory in tuas area next day..

january 4
this photo was taken as park of the BCA site inspection of one completed factory.
did a lot of photos during that day but most are only meant for inspection purposes.. the above is the only one that i can show as it is an internal view of the factory's production area.

sharing a photo taken by an iphone4

was testing the iphone's camera's capabilities.
camera model: iphone4
fstop: f/2.8
exposure time: 1/15 sec
iso 125
incidentally this is one of 2 shots taken by the iphone4 camera. apparently the other 1 which is a bit brighter than this 1 is the normal shot while this one which has more saturated colors is the hdr version or maybe its the otherway around. honestly i dont see much difference other than more saturated colors.

 

[naynoy]

due to current family and office work load i will be uploading my daily photos in one shot most probably by the next 2 days. this will still be photos i took on a daily basis with either of my p&s digicam, my iphone or my sony alpha cam. ..

i think i should forward this to your wife to let her know that you like this subject :sweatsm:.
Nice thread, keep it up man.

no problem.. she always see me processing my shots at night and sometimes she would comment why i only take photos of nice looking girls..

Edit: for some of my street photos.. i at times will use liquify in CS5 to enhance/adjust a face or a portion of a body..

 

[naynoy]

2nd night visit to pagoda street chinatown last night after office hours..
i may have on occasion 1-2 pics per day since i often do my processing in the early morning, noontime or nighttime and if i happen to upload an early morning shot taken on the same day and managed to get another good shot in the night of the same day, i will post the night shot as an additional photo for that day..

this was taken last night using my sigma 70-300 macro that can only work in manual focus mode..

this was taken with a heart shaped cut-out in fromnt of the lens.. not exactly sharp but i did liked the heart shaped bokeh
