Bounce Flash~~

Hello once again!
Today i found some really exciting additions to my camera... And it's a piece of foil!! Yep, a piece of foil. I sort of searched it somewhere, and apparently, when trying to bounce flash from a in-camera flash, you can use foil. Well, using the glossy side would be good. So basically, you jut angle the piece of foil into the cameras flash, and you would be trying to reflect the flash, onto somewhere else (like a ceiling or wall) and put it back into the subject. It takes time to make the angle to correct, because at first, when I did mine, I just held my foil in place, and just shot the picture. But later on, I sort of went lazy, and I wanted to just attach the foil onto the flash, so I could just shoot the photos and not worry about the foil. And I did it, using some wire. Just poked a hole onto the foil, and hooked it onto my flash. So basically, now, I can take it off, and put it back on when I need it!
Here's some pictures. Enjoy ;) Yep, it's taken with my Casio..

Partial Black and White~~

Hello Everybody!
Yep, it's blogging time once again. Now, you can go and guess what my new interest and obsession is about this time. Let's give you a hint. It's this blogs title! Yep, it's partial black and white. Pretty cool eh? For those who does not know what is partial black and white is, it is a black and white picture, with the main focus points (or the stuff the photographer wants the viewer to be focused on) in colour!
Also, lately, I have went to a table tennis competition, and I was shooting for them for the day. This was really fun and challenging. Actually, it was extremely challenging because, the game was played inside a shopping centre, where there was low light and fast actions. Before the game, I was tossing around about whether I should bring my lousy tripod, but luckily, I made the decision to bring my tripod, and it was a very good choice to do so! Because, it was shot in low light, I had to use a tripod so I can allow myself to do some slow shutter speed shots. Even thought some shots were done in slow shutter speeds, there was enough light, but the shots were blurry because the players were doing some fast action. So even though I got some nice "action" shots, I also wanted some sharp, non-blurry shots. So this got me to use a higher shutter speed and a higher ISO speed. I know, I know, using a higher ISO speed causes noise? Yep, I know that. For the whole day, the highest ISO I used was up to 800ISO. Even though this is just a low ISO speed, it did get some noise in it, causing me to edit it, and make it all smooth again. I guess it wasn't impossible, it was just 10x harder than using 200ISO. So I guess I need some more practice sometime later in the year.
So far, until this point, I have a few needs and wants in my life. These are *drum rolls*: Buy new zoom lens and fish eye lens (Yea, I know, it's not a need, its a want), get some fireworks, fast action shots and landscape portraits done. Actually I want to do a long panoramic view shot as well. But last of all (Yes, this one is a need, a definite need as well), is to earn more money, and so I can spend on my needs and wants. Hehe.
Anyway, It's photo time!! Enjoy.

Morning Walks~

Hi people!~
Recently, I have been really busy on my studies, and yea, making me leave this blog for a while. Sorry for that, well really for anyone who reads this.
So yea, in this period of time I have created a new habit. And this is *drumroll*... Taking a morning walk! Yep, waking up at 6.45, getting out by 7, and walking for an hour or so. Sounds pretty lame and makes people ask, "Why would you want to wake up THAT early for?" Well, to put it straight, I have been gaining some useless kilos, and also, my doctor has suggested me to breathe more cleaner air into my lungs so I can minimize the sneezing in the season of Spring. That's a good reason, right?
So yea, when I went for my first walk, I went and took some hilly walk, just to walk up and down, and move my muscles. But sadly, the first time, I forgot to bring my camera!! I only had my phone with me, and yea, you know my expectations of photos. They got to have sufficient lighting and good composition. Yea, composition is not a problem, but the colours were so OFF!!
