Belair For Christmas!

Written by • Oct 19th, 2012 • Category: Others
This is probably one of the most exciting camera from Lomography! The Belair camera! Received a newsletter with an offer to do a pre-order with 30% off and I went ‘whoaaaa!’ when I saw them. The specs looks yummy too! Specs taken from their website says … – A totally original medium-format camera with automatic shutter settings. – Takes breathtaking 6×12 panoramic photos as well as 6×6 square format and 6×9 photos. – Exchangeable lens system for experimentation and flexibility. – High quality lenses crafted by an experienced optics team.… >> read more

Five Already!

Written by • Jan 6th, 2012 • Category: Digital stuffs
In a blink of an eye … Fitzand turned 5 yesterday. Instead of the usual day off on his birthday, he told me that he wanted to celebrate it in school with his friends there and thus we prepared some goodie bags and ordered cake for him to have some good time with his buddies there. As we brought him for the Dinosaurs Live! exhibition last weekend, he didn’t bug us to bring him to the zoo this birthday. We used to bring him to the zoo for some big… >> read more

Skinny Santa Sent Cammie

Written by • Dec 17th, 2011 • Category: Toys
One year ago … those awesome people from ThirtySix gave me a super duper surprise when they gave me the Wrangler special edition Diana F+ for Christmas. That camera was meant to be a prize for some competition and they managed to hunt one down for me (which they still refuse to tell me how they did it). This year … last night … I met up with Jimmy for some beer at a barbeque session and after some beer … he turned into the skinniest Santa ever and gave… >> read more

Glitter Rocket

Written by • Apr 23rd, 2011 • Category: Others
During my recent trip to visit my folks in Malaysia, I packed along my Sprocket Rocket thinking I could fire some rolls there but as I was lurking around the paint section in a hardware shop … I suddenly had an idea to create something a little different as a present for my friend Jimmy (from ThirtySix). I saw some gold paint and thought maybe I could give my Sprocket Rocket a new look and give it to him (and soon go buy a brand new one from him again).… >> read more

Love The Spam!

Written by • Apr 7th, 2011 • Category: Others
Don’t you dare try spam me though. 😀 This is a ‘making of’ video for a ‘Spamera’ … a DIY pinhole camera using an empty Spam can … done by the talented Noreen (aka Miun). She told me about this little project of hers, and she was making this as a birthday present for ‘Queen’ Cyanwater … the famous Lomographer and lady boss of ThirtySix. Noreen did asked if I’d be interested to make one too … and at that time I foolishly told her I’d be interested to try… >> read more

Hijacked Birthday

Written by • Feb 15th, 2011 • Category: Digital stuffs
It is Valentine’s Day today as well as wifey’s birthday. As we do not usually bother celebrating birthdays (except when I need an excuse to gather friends to gulp beer) … we had a simple dinner at a Thai restaurant. After the dinner … I told Fitzand that it is his mommy’s birthday and he was super excited. He made a dash for his mommy and said ‘Mommy! It is your birthday today! I buy you a cake!!!’. Hahahaha! Guess he was excited about the cake instead. So we agreed… >> read more

Deciding On The Decided

Written by • Jan 19th, 2011 • Category: Others
Stumbled upon some images of this Philip Stein watch from their ceramic collection online recently and decided to get one for wifey. Her birthday is still a month away but I decided to get it for her now anyway and hopefully she’ll like it. The guy at the boutique told me that the watch has Natural Frequency Technology inside (WTH is that?!) that helps give better sleep and relaxes the mind (really?). I asked if he has anything that helps one stay awake … and he offered me coffee. Duh!… >> read more

Yeah … Very Funny!

Written by • Jan 9th, 2011 • Category: Fun with film
Cindy (aka Cyanwater) from ThirtySix gave Fitzand a Christmas present that he loved lots. It was a disposable camera called ‘LOL CAM’ and he wanted to use it the moment he ripped apart the box (in the car!). I managed to stop him and later taught him how to use it. Luckily his finger was long enough to reach the front to press (and hold) the flash button. I thought that roll of 24 exposure film wouldn’t last an hour … since I decided to just leave it to him… >> read more

It Is Still Christmas!!!

Written by • Jan 8th, 2011 • Category: Toys
Christmas is over? That’s what I thought until I went down to ThirtySix to collect my ‘girls’ after the recent Diana F+ showcase there. I went home … opened up the box … and in it was something I don’t remember passing to them. It was a box … sized like a normal Diana one … but wrapped up in some nice Lomography gift wrapper. Hmm. I thought it was a prank by those guys there but I almost screamed in excitement when I opened it up! It was a… >> read more

Christmas 2010

Written by • Dec 25th, 2010 • Category: Digital stuffs
Merry Christmas!!! Some find it hard to believe that I turned down invitations to go grab some beer last night (on Xmas eve) but it is very true that I made the decision to spend the evening at home with my family instead. Good boy eh? 😀 We just got back from some shopping and lunch at Orchard Rd and Fitzand got himself some new toys as early birthday presents. It is about 2 weeks to go til his 4th birthday but we decided to let him pick his presents… >> read more
