Doing photo stories is still my primary passion, but fashion photography is something that I've always desired to endeavour. A good fashion photograph has all the fashion elements: the outfit, the hair, the make-up, the location, the sets. Photography only comes after all these, and post-processing delivers the final packaging to the image.I chose to shoot at the Marina …

Every morning, my wife would tune in to Class95 radio station to listen to the radio deejays Glenn Ong and the Flying Dutchman talking sense (and often non-sense too). This morning, Glenn and Carol was on radio and they were mentioning about the car decal goodie giveaway happening at Bishan Stadium. Since it's near our home, we decided to go pick up the goodies.When we …

Zoe's not getting married - yet. But it is every girl's dream to don the bridal gown and look absolutely ravishing. This shoot gives her an excuse to wear a gown.Many friends have asked me why I have done so many photoshoots with Zoe. That's mainly because we have built a good friendship over the years, since the start of her modelling and event stints. During the times, I …

Woken up at 6am by a bad tummy ache, followed by diarrhoea. What did I eat yesterday? Morning was Nasi Lemak at Cuppage Plaza Isle Cafe, lunch was Beef Noodles at Cineleisure, dinner was the Fried Noodles ("sang meen") with Fish Slices at Blk 505 zichar store. Just blogging here in case I, you know, well, can't blog due to some physical deteoriation. For now, the …

I have been using StarHub MaxOnline (MOL) Express for as long as I could remember. I have been contented with its download speed 16Mbps and upload speed of 1.5Mbps, until they made an offer I could not refuse during the recent COMEX show. StarHub is offering its fibre-based MaxInfinity (MIF) Elite plan, with download speed of 150Mbps and upload speed of 75Mbps, at a price of …

I was invited to the Canon Blogger Event held at The Screening Room at Ann Siang Road. I was expecting a huge event but was pleasantly surprised that it was exclusively for a handful of around 20 guests.Before the presentation started, we chilled out at the rooftop with the rest of the bloggers. Met and chatted with Claudia and Diana from 24seven, a social media company. …

Thailand ads are often laced with emotions. Here's one to share.Pantene did this 4-minute theatre commercial about a deaf girl who yearns to learn the violin, snubbed by her pianist classmate. Eventually, she overcame the prejudice and her own inferiority and did it.Not as well done as the other Thai commercial I posted some time ago. Nevertheless a good inspiring storyline. …

This is my first formal shot as a model since my pre-wedding sessions in 2000. Thanks to Ervine of StudioV for making this possible. He was trying out his newly-acquired lens, the Nikkor PC-Micro 85mm f/2.8D with tilt-shift capability. The "strange" blur effects you see on the photos are the result of the lens itself, no post-processing done.It is an eye-opening …

I went down to the PC Show at Suntec Convention Centre with a few colleagues during lunchtime. After a quick lunch, we took a cab and arrived at 12.30pm. Barely opened for 30 minutes, the place is already packed with human traffic.I had a list of things to purchase, but ended up buying only one item, the 22-inch ViewSonic VA2226w LCD monitor at $349. This is the third …

My latest music album project is finally going to be released, according to my agent. The moment I got hold of the cover design images, I promptly created a web site, as I always did for all my other albums, Timeless and Piano Spa series. These are not official websites from the record label, but it's important to establish a web presence to let people search for album …

Today is Singapore's 42nd National Day, a public holiday, so I went for a few test drives at Ubi. My parents came over to my house at about 9am. We instructed Mum a few things before we left her alone with Mayenne and the rest of us left the house for Ubi.First stop: Toyota. We were the first customer at the showroom, and we found out that they just brought in some new cars …

With so much competition on the network community portal, it's no wonder the once-popular Friendster is trying so hard to keep up by introducing new features. But unfortunately, some of the features are flawed and will cost them dearly.There was one feature called 'Fan Profile'. On one look, I thought it will tag your current Friendster account with this new feature. So I …

I was doing a photoshoot today at Punggol beach with Lara. Halfway through the shoot, we headed back to the car to change. I was leading the way and was already walking up the concrete stairs when I heard a hissing sound to the left of the stairs. And I saw this:Instinctively, I backed off slowly. Lara, who was behind me, was unaware and wondered why I was going backwards. …

Facebook has become such a phenomenon, a choir actually sang to the tune of "Dream".

The easiest way to understand (and therefore appreciate) the meaning of a piece of music is through lyrics. Which is why I felt that lyrics are more important in a song than the melody. And though sometimes you would enjoy the instrumental version of a song, you enjoy with a prior understanding of the song through the original lyrics. So say you were listening to …
