During last weekend’s trip to Malaysia, I actually planned to shoot at least 3 rolls on my Spinner but due to the super duper busy time there … I managed to burn only one single roll. As we spent most of the time at home with my parents, the only time I could fire some shots was during a short trip out of town to some small fishing village (my bro goes thru all that trouble just to buy fresh seafood!) and a short visit to a temple near there. You probably find Fitzand in my arms in many of the shots because he wanted to be the one pulling the cord. I’m a little more used to the cam now and I’ll help him pull it and then get him to hold it tight before releasing it. Oh … you will also find me trying very hard to include a big smile in some of the photos (after some of you complaining about my angry face in the first test roll). 😀
Luck must be on my side this time round because most of the shots turned out okay. Credit goes to ‘Queen Cindy’ aka Cyanwater who ‘blessed’ my Spinner when I lent it to her for a couple of days. 😀 I’m sure those of you who are into Lomography stuffs have seen her works but if you haven’t … just go do a search in Lomo’s webbie or walk into ThirtySix (if you are in Singapore) and get her to grope your camera and perhaps drip some sweat onto it to get blessed with some of her magic. Really! No joke. I know of some who borrowed her camera and ended up with some prize winning shots! 😀 Don’t tell her I sent you though. I’m gonna try eBay my Limited Cyanwater Blessed Spinner 360 for maybe US$1000. Anyone bidding?
Do click on the images on this page to see slightly bigger versions of the images. I’m still too lazy to find a better way to present these pano photos. 😛
It ain’t easy spinning while carrying a kiddo with one hand. The only way is try get him to help pull the cord and then pray real hard that things will turn out fine.
I had to present this vertical shot (above) this way because it will really screw up my blog’s layout if it is in the original orientation.
Lazy me loves spinning from inside the car. My mom was asking what on earth it was (the Spinner). Hahaha!
So happy this roll made it out of the cam (and came back from the lab) alive!
Gosh! I think I spent 2 hours scanning and stitching these shots (and it is 1:30am now)! Damn! Thank God the DigitaLIZA exists (and hopefully arrive soon), otherwise I might just forget about scanning the pics with sprocket holes from now on.
