Birthday Month Here



This month many of my family members shall be celebrating their birthday including myself lah. So here I`m going to hint lah waht I would like to have as a present. Hope it`s not so obvious.
Images was taken between 10:30 am to 11:00 am, using Nikon D50 standard lens at focal length 55mm and minimum aperture possible, manual focus, 1/3 flash, 1 white A4 reflector and a tripod stand. Speed 500. No strong wind. Histogram excellent.
The images can be much better with a good macro lens. Then we can also see the pimples and the warts of the beetles.
A good macro can take better close up images where you can see the minor details.


Good landscape images will require a good polarizer filter like what Ikelah have. That`s why the skies look superb. I don`t have one yet but shall need one for my Jogjakarta trip this May. The sunrise at Borobudur and the sunset at Parangitis, I can already visualize the results.


Talking about the jogja trip, I`m getting worried. I found out Ikelah`s back will take sometime to get better. Now who`s gonna carry the bags?

I can`t carry all 4 person`s backpack and climb Borobudur?
