Water Droplets. Take 2!

So with some free time and some gained experience from the last time,
I tried water droplets again.

It went relatively easier than the first.
I'll write down some of the tricks I learned after this pic.

Wanna know how to get professional macro shots with your kit lens?

5 things I learned with my DSLR

Ever since I got my DSLR a few months back,
I have learned a lot from friends and the net but the few most important would be the 5 listed.

1. Always carry your camera around - You did buy the camera for a reason. So use it! Bring it around. I've missed quite a number of shots cause I didn't feel like bringing it around. If you think that a DSLR is too big and chunky for you, then aim for something smaller, a Lumix GX1 or a Sony NEX3 perhaps.
2. Use other modes besides AUTO - Well you did get a DSLR camera for a reason, so why not move away from Auto and to the other modes before eventually ending up with the Manual modes. There are loads to learn and it is pretty fun. 
3. Never shoot with a bright backlight - This is a pretty general rule. Unless you are going for a silhouette shot, the picture will most likely turn out not what you want it. With the subject dark and the background bright. 
4. Try not using the flash - With all the new High Iso options with the cameras, try using it instead of a flash. It would give the picture more ambiance and mood. Just keep in mind that, the higher the Iso the higher the picture noise. 
5. Be patient - Take your time with the shot you are about to snap. Cause if you rush it through, it may either turn out blur or it may not capture the moment. Wait for it but not for too long.

Starbucks Instant Coffee

Okay well Starbucks came out with their instant coffee line a few months back and by luck,
Chester (the guest blogger of this blog),
sent some to me! So nice of him horrr

Means my coffee fly from the Starbucks factory, then to wherever he bought it then fly again to Malaysia.
Those nuts got more fly time than my nuts for this year. damnnn
Since this review is nothing about my nuts, lets move on...

So well apparently Starbucks claimed that the instant coffee is so fresh, regular Starbucks drinkers wouldn't be able to tell the difference.


Here is a short video of that.





DO NOT BE CONVINCED


Well let me explain. I tried the Instant Iced Coffee from Starbucks a few nights back, its tastes EXACTLY like those you can get from a Kopitiam. (cheaper version of a coffee shop in Malaysia).
So my conclusion for it was Iced Coffee = Iced Kopi-O
Worst part of it was, cause the Kopi-o is made at the spot, it sorta tastes better. jengjengjenggggg

So there you go, the next time your friend wants to buy you Starbucks Instant Coffee, request for their Frappacino flavor if they have it...XDD


I grew up drinking coffee and I'm really curious, I've got friends who have never tried coffee besides Starbucks or Coffee Bean. hmm
They must be rich~

SNSD Japan HQ Wallpapers

Okay I know that quite recently SNSD released their Genie single in Japanese
If you haven't seen it yet, here it is.
Damn Tiffany and Sunny looks so hot.



Well technically looking for the Jap Wallpapers did take some time and effort.
So please enjoy~

The Viliv ones I'm not so sure,

but since Jessica changed her hair color in the Jap vid, I'm just assuming this is related.

If it ain't,

not a bad thing having another SNSD wallpaper..XD

Hope you will enjoy this. ^^
