Panasonic Lumix Workshop & Cosmo Parade

I'm blessed to get a chance to attend the "I Love Lumix Photography Workshop by Bob Lee" organized by OMY, last saturday. I would say that because the workshop is pretty much conceptual and Bob shares more about the idea behind what makes a photo good, rather than just technical camera usage skills. This is good as it's a lot more practical for a point and shot camera user like me.

That's me and the new Panasonic Lumix GF5 camera which I was loan for the day.

The biggest take away from the workshop is that I understand that it's extra effort we put into our photo can make it stand out among others. Well, I didn't get selected as one of the 5 participants that gets to keep the camera for 1 month to continue taking photos of the various events at the SHINE Youth Festival 2012.


Well, here's the unedited photos taken by a SLR camera noob -- Me, of course. That's the first time ever in my life that I got to play with such camera and I have to admit that although I understand that there're features like shuttle speed, focus length, etc but I've no idea where are there and how to set them...

 Setting off for the Cosmo Parade for practice of our skills

 Here's the first Cosplay person I saw on my way there

 I love the look of the cute little girl, happily playing with the drums





I like the Cai Shen's look 









 This is the miniature effect

 The toy camera effect

 Here's the guy who was on top of the same pillar as me


 I'm so far behind that this is the only thing I saw...


 The star filter effect

Our videography team

 Oops

Lion Dance standby area


 This little girl is just so cute












Spiderman that saved the day... Because this dragon is just so long that... The cars can't cross this side of the road, until Spiderman stands in the middle of the road to let them through


 Beauty and the Beast?

 He reminds me of dragon ball or was it?



Well, I would say that my skills is just not there after all. Especially after reading one of the selected participants' blog post. Well, after you see her photos, you will understand better. It's really very nice looking. From her photos, I understand that it's not just a difference in skills, it's the feelings that her photos emit that makes the entire big difference!

Tiramisu @ The Tiramisu Hero Cafe

While walking from Jalan Besar Stadium's carpark to Lavender Food Square to eat my favourite wanton mee, we past by an interesting dessert cafe - the tiramisu hero . the tiramisu hero As a fan of tiramisu, I wonder why I haven't seen that place before that. So after dinner, we dropped by to check out their menu. I am amazed to know that they actually serves a wide variety of tiramisu flavours, unfortunately not all special flavours are available. From the board displayed at the order counter, I can see that they strike off all the sold out flavours... I believe their business must be very good because there's only a few flavours are left. The $3.5 MiniHero are all sold out. So I had to order the ♥ MommaHero (classic original flavour) instead. Even their menu looks so cute  ♥ While I was sitting at the table, waiting to be served, I wonder if I can even finish the entire tub myself as I am pretty full from dinner and it seems like it might be pretty big....

Free Antivirus Software

Just shared with one of my friends a few days ago that her computer is infected by some virus. And came to realised only yesterday that she's not the only one with unprotected computer. Then I'm wondering if it's just IT people that knows where to get free yet good antivirus software and install? Just to share with those that didn't know, AVG is really a very good yet free antivirus software. If you don't have one, it's best that you just download and install it so that your computer will be almost always virus free. At least most of the normal virus won't be able to disturb you :)
