Some wine might help but I am staying away from booze for a day or two since I&#8217;ve just recovered from a bad tummy problem. Nevermind. I&#8217;ll just add a blog entry and post a couple of photos I took in Malaysia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ever had such situation when you see something you would like to photograph but realise you either don&#8217;t have your camera with you or brought the wrong camera? Well take a look at this photo &#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/miscellaneous-digital\/collide.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It might look like just a simple photo of a wall, a door and some shadows &#8230; but I really missed several opportunities to photograph it. It&#8217;s not in some exotic place &#8230; but just in my old home in Malaysia. I remember a few times when I was back there visiting my folks, I saw this pretty cool pattern cast on the wall\/door at certain time of the day &#8230; and it&#8217;s not every day that the sun is strong enough to cast that strong (and long) shadows. The first couple of times when I saw a similar sight &#8230; I had only some very challenging-to-use cameras like the Diana or Supersampler with me &#8230; and when I had my digital camera with me &#8230; the shadows were pretty &#8216;weak&#8217; and were not &#8216;pretty&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This trip &#8230; a miracle happened! I was watching TV with my compact camera in my pocket and suddenly &#8230; tada~ &#8230; what I&#8217;ve always wanted to capture appeared in front of my eyes! Hmm &#8230; I sound like I just photographed some aliens in their spacecraft eh?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ok &#8230; I&#8217;ll go force my eyes to close and sleep &#8230; but before that &#8230; I&#8217;ll leave you with a couple of snapshots of Fitzand eating durians when we were in Malaysia. He loves durians! I remember a couple of weeks ago when we were at the market (here in Singapore) &#8230; he stopped right in front of the durian stall and told me that he wants to eat durian. Of course I got my wife to buy some for him that day and we were all laughing at how he enjoys eating them. I ain&#8217;t too big a durian fan though.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-2-years-old-album-1\/fitzand-20-jun-09-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ok folks &#8230; goodnite!
