But barely, cos it always refuses to start after shutting down the engine. As the spark plug was hot n ‘wet’. It was a common sight of me and my car at a car park swapping out the spark plugs. 

So after it got more and more frustrating I brought the car to my friend’s workshop. To help me find out what was the problem.

As I don’t want to post bit n pieces on and off. So since the last journal posting Green mobile update. I exceeded the time date line I set for myself. I wanted to get the car out 5 months ago. HAHAHA! Oh well I finally got it out.

Software being free is important for me, I’m just a hobbyist. I played around Camera Control Pro for 30 days and thats it.

I have been searching high and low for a cost effective solution when I found Sofortbild.

It seems to connect (to the d300) faster on OSX 10.5 on my iMac compared to my MacBookPro which was running 10.6. I wonder if its really the software difference or just my mind playing tricks on me. I have not had my morning tea!

Testing =D (mutiple shots not live view!)

]]>Joe's Workshop (cont.)http://www.randomshutter.com/journal/2010/2/6/joes-workshop-cont.htmlGerald2010-02-06T12:14:46Zevents joe louis mcnally pang photography shangrila wedshooter workshop workshopThe workshop was organised by wedshooter.tv. A site created by Louis Pang. The workshop kicked off at about 830 Louis introduced the program a bit and then introduced Joe McNally. Then we (the ‘students’ of light) introduced ourselves. It was kinda strange for me as everyone had a purpose and know what they want to learn from Joe. Me, I said that I was there to have some fun. Hmmm.. actually I was there to see how he worked. Which I did. And it was a lot of work! He is a perfectionist sort off… and has heaps of experience to throw at the problem and is really really good at what he does. For those who didn’t know, Joe is a lighting guru. He has a knack of making the photos look so natural that you cannot tell that it was created by artificial light. And most of the time accomplished by the small lights, speedlites. Who also won many awards and accolades over his 30 years of experience in photography. And recently voted as one of the top 30 most influential photographers of the decade. 

And he has got a lot of gear… I only shot a few pics of the gears n stuff~

After mucking about for abit finally got out of the hotel to see this

Smokes coming out of Maybank HQ, in Jalan Tun Perak. I was wondering why people were taking photos and pointing upwards when I was looking down at the streets from my window. Hmm.. the building was behind where my window was facing. Only when I went downstairs and looked up did I know what was going on. So, I too took a shot at it =D

Probably a good 10 years? maybe one or two years more. He has always been smart and creative. Likes to play mah-jong and a few things. Amongst the few other things apparently lately its been photography. I have known of the site for a while now, but didnt realise there were updates and it has become a blog! I dont know why he has been keeping a low profile about it. Probably his closer friends may know of it.. or maybe he was not ready to show it. Who knows.

But me being me, have already added it into my links page. Cos I think its a well built site and deserves more traffic!

In case you have not figured out this web page, its http://www.cliked.com/
