No lighting, long exposure

Flashed with no diffuser

Flashed with diffuser

Looks like its not so great yet, the falloff at the corners is terrible! I’m guessing its the choice of plastic and the fact that this version is flat (i made a curved one before this)

Thoughts and Discussions

Joblessness

I went for a long long long blogsurf and realise I’m really not doing anything with my time and skills. I came across some random blogs of people my age and read about what they do and I wondered if I would ever get to do something I really liked. Sometimes I wonder where people get their money from. hahaha.. you’re 24 and you have a quadcore pc for gaming, 15? powerbook, canon dslr eos-1 mark II, ricoh digital gr, sony dsc T10, x360, wii, ds lite? oh my. Okay okay.. so the canon mk2 is for work but cmon man.. haha..

I think I have to get to work. Not to buy stuff.. but.. hey… actually if don’t buy stuff work for what. haha.. there comes a point where you earn enough to survive right? I’m thinking this earn money to spend it is quite ridiculous. Still, I’d like to get me either a G9 or a ricoh digital gr2. haha.. My olympus don’t want to die yet so nothings going to happen for now.

Personal Blog

My 4th Wordpress Theme..

..for this site that is. Its still being touched up but its totally doped! Its a shame half of the features nobody will ever see or notice. haha.. Its really meant for me. Time for some link love.

Things you will see

  1. Ginormous image support thanks to wp-imagefit
  2. Bible verses thanks to ESV plugin
  3. Tooltips thanks to tippy
  4. Twitter updates thanks to twitter tools
  5. Latest Comments thanks to Brian’s Latest Comments

Things you won’t see/notice

  1. Easy Flickr photo insertion thanks to Flickr Manager
  2. Spam Free thanks to Akismet
  3. Convenient admin navigation thanks to ozh
  4. Backend kept in order by gamerz
  5. Easy edit, admin and login/logout links
  6. Easy aside posting thanks to the Prologue theme
  7. Theme is xhtml & css valid (its a first for me!)

Well, its so nice and decent that I’ll be sharing it with my brother cos we do exactly the same things with our blog. Almost.. just waiting for that elusive iphone admin interface to get working with WordPress 2.5. I think I have just a little bit of details here and there such as his header and the colour scheme to take care of. Total time spent.. hmm… 10-15hours spread over a few days? Thats like really fast man. I guess its because its very low on graphics and I didn’t have to mess around with the CSS alot. I paid attention to web standards, typography, shades and author useability more than anything this time. I really like it! Don’t foresee it changing much in the near future. Think my skillz are not yet madz.. but it is getting there. My design still needs tons of improvement.
