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.
