Alpha, You've Disappointed Me... Same to you SONY...!!!

During the photoshooting at the paddy field, found out there's a huge dust in front of my 18-200 lens... Assuming it was in between the UV filter and the lens, I removed out the UV filter and tried to blow away the dust by using blower. Looks like the dust is in the lens..!!! WTF..! I wonder how such a huge dust can enter into the lens..! Ridiculous..!








I was just about to celebrate 1 month old of the lens but... "masuk kilang pulak..." Sigh... Frankly, I'm very disappointed with SONY ALPHA product... Not only cheap finishing, but also poor QC... Old granpa minolta lenses also have better quality and solid-built, serious shit...! I can accept minor dust, but not such a huge dust like that..!!! I wonder what will enter into the lens next... Armpit hair..? Pubic hair..?

p/s: -1 for you SONY ALPHA

Sekinchan Paddy Field Again, Again & Again... (Part 2)

Here's part 2... In part 1, the pics are towards high contrast and saturated... Following pics, I would like to present it in LOMO feel... Yay..! Kampung style..! Enjoy...


The grain is about to turn yellow. Another 1 month, the paddy will be riped... If there's a chance, hope I could be there to view it...



The weather machine... Thanks to Wonderboy who introduced this GND filter... Really effective to bring out the details of the sky which usually over-exposed.



Nice weather during our photoshoot outing... But still the same amount of UV ray... (-_-")



Our very 1st stop... The wrecken bridge... Never miss this place each time I visited there...



Early in the morning, the farmers get ready to start their work. Their usual transport is motorbike.



Another farmer with his reaper...



Then the next stop was near to a factory. I think this is the only empty brown ground you can find there... Therefore, the ground looks very outstanding as we had too much of greens...



I wonder how they can manage such a huge field.



Motorbike uncle again...



Very relaxing and pleasant scenary... Don't know why I feel emo when looking at this... =(



In the middle of the field, there's an odd tree... seems like get stucked by lightning... The shadow fell on the ground looks creapy...



The tree...



Haha.. Reminds me of kukubird... Its sweet sweet home...



That's all from the paddy field... Not sure wheather to post or not for the next destination...

Sekinchan Paddy Field Again, Again & Again... (Part 1)

Hei ya... Seems like it's been a long long time you don't see green in my blog... LOL... So last week, I went to "cuci mata" with Wonderboy, Enigmaz, Sam and a group of Cari forumers... I mean "cuci mata" in a good way la dei, not the yellow wan..

So it was the 27th of April... Started our journey from Klang by 0600 and arrived to Sekinchan paddy field again by 0700... So many times at there for shooting but it's still fun coz there're millions of angles you can choose from... You can refer to my paddy field series.


Early in the morning for sunrise... it was misty, not haze ya.. ;)



Great reflection at the river...



All the photogs at work... Thx to them, I got poisoned by their D300 T_T



Fresh aaa...!!! *sniff* *sniff*



Wo hoo...! I don't have to wear my spec..!!!



All the paddy still young and need breast feeding...



This is so called the "breast..."



Not only paddy, got water lily and dunno what eggs are that...



Never miss any part of the scenary...



Just like at the seaside but green in colour...



Hardly find the grain yet...



Not until at a part of the field... Grainy..!



Green + Blue = something something banana rite???



Found a great spot for group pic...
