Comment: As i waited for my project mate to submit to me, i began playing around with my 30D and i stumbled onto the "blub" mode and was i amazed!! haha! its fun to play around with the trigger and aperture settings and then i took this picture, also wanting to show off my new iMac that i've got. Its basic iphoto are more than enough for this noob to play around with and i was impress at the graphic quality of it

Model: Micky
Date: 2/10/2007
Location: Living Room, Home
Lens: EF 50mm prime f/1.8
Shutter: 1/50
Aperture: f/1.8
Focal Length: 50mm

Comment: Just bought my lens that day and was keen to try out, so apparently micky kept bugging me as usual and so i thought, why not, and i tried to coax him into sitting down, and then took a snap shot of this look, it made him look so obedient and so angelic, almost got me fooled, but then again, the 50mm really capture the main focal point, his eyes.

I thought it's about time that i start to upload some of my shots taken and these are what i've come up with, some pictures taken from the outing baracuda batucada had with NP dance sports, its all trial and error and i have to say, it's really interesting how things turned out. ^^
Brought my 30D out along on the trip to capture some of the happenings on that day and tried out my EF 50mm prime lens/EFS 55~85mm/ EFS F4 80~200mm lens and results are quite satisifying.

These 2 pictures below are taken with my 70~200 mm lens and i must say, de bokeh obtained from em are quite satisfying note the details on the background vs de focus on him. "only if he doesn't have squinty eyes.. :p






Another of my favourite shots are taken from dance sports's michelle, she has a very natural smile on her and her posture are often very defined, pictures taken with a 70~200mm lens, note the contracts between each picture, 1st one was taken when she making a call and she happened to be facing me, the dropback plus her smile makes it almost picture-perfect

2nd was taken asking her to pose and it turned out quite well, last was taken while she's rushing off for school. haha.. sneak pix. :p



Well, gotta rush off for work now, i'll leave you with this "group" picture.
