So it's been, and going to be, a pretty tough few days for me, since I've temporarily lost my source of addiction until Saturday. Add to that the fact that the weather has been playing around with me, and you get a pretty disgruntled Eman.

The day I ran, it was pretty nice and bright up until the point I had to go home, so it was no biggie. My sister entertained me throughout my um, "portrait" session. In all honesty I was just randomly shooting things in the house, when she sat down to read a book. I just shot a few frames of her, and she layan-ed. So yeah, thanks.



Yesterday, it was pretty darn hot, though it rained again in the evening. And that means some photography was supposed to happen, though it was such a dull and dreary day that I had no inspiration nor mood to shoot anything, though a glance up at the sky changed that, somewhat. A little.



Something different, and.. un-me.



Oh, and thanks for the call. Cheered me up, though I may not have sounded it.

I think I was supposed to head out today, but in the end tak jadi, I'm not entirely sure why. So I stayed home and bummed around, read a little, tried to do some work, failed, and decided to head out at about five to take some photos. Went to Kiara, and walked around for a bit before settling down to some pigeon shooting.



There were tonnes there, and they were pretty tame, so I could get pretty close. Not that I could get that close, anyway, since I was limited by the lens punya min. focus distance. And I still haven't gotten the knack for Bird-in-flight photos. It's so hard to keep tracking them!







Then as I was walking around, taking a break, this bugger kept on staring at me. So, what else was I to do. Whip, zoom, snap! And when I pointed the camera at him, he looked away. Nabeh.



Also got some weird looks from people there, though I guess it's because I was almost on my stomach crawling around trying to get the shots I wanted. Hmmmmm..

Eye-level photos babe! Not easy, especially if you're at a public place, and you're wearing a white tee, and the ground is filled with those tiny red ants that swarm on your left elbow as soon as you put it on the ground. Gah!





Then it got too dark to use available light with decent ISO and shutter speed, so I decided to try some flash.





And that's about it.

Oh, and a big Happy Chinese New Year shout-out to my friends out there!
