Sensitivity V Backpack

I have found a bag that I can use for travelling. It can carry my laptop or netbook, DSLR, (at least) two lenses, external flash, Ipod Nano, PSP and camera accessories. And most importantly, it is not too bulky and is suitable on the lady.

Shadows

Elliott Erwitt says : Nothing happens when you sit at home. I always make it a point to carry a camera with me at all times…I just shoot at what interests me at that moment.

I say : I always TRY to carry a camera with me at all times…I just shoot at what interests me at that moment.

Light Painter KK's (birthday?) wish - to take one night photo of Singapore Flyer from Esplanade. Meanwhile, I noticed our shadows and thought they looked interesting. Unexpectedly, the snapshots of the shadows came out well.

Baan Khanitha Thai Cusine, Bangkok

Lens : EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
Settings : f/4.5, 1/10 Sec, ISO6400, 18MM
 
One of my favourite pictures from the trip. I took it while waiting for food to be served and I am very pleased with the composition. The picture looks noisy as I have abused the ISO. The place was too dimly lit!

Finally! All 131 photos had been uploaded to Flickr. This is also the biggest set I have created till date.

20100312 Streets of Bangkok

Lens : EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
Settings : f/5.6, 1/500 Sec, ISO400, 55MM
The painful part - uploading photos! 34 photos and counting.

Grand Millennium Sukhumvit Bangkok

Address : 30, Sukhumvit 21 (Asoke) Road, Klongtoey Nua, Wattana, Bangkok, 10110, Thailand

Date of stay : 12th to 14th March 2010

The Grand Millennium Sukhumvit Hotel is located in one of Bangkok’s prime area. It is only a 5-minute walk to the BTS, Asoke Sky Station and 30-minutes drive away from Bangkok’s new Suvarnabhumi Airport. Just around the hotel, are pubs (Soi Cowboy), restaurants and massage parlors. The Baan Khanitha Thai Cusine which has won the Bangkok best dining and entertainment award for 'best thai restaurant' for more than 10 years is only a ten minutes walk.

The main entrance of the hotel
The main lobby and the In-blu Jazz Lounge
The room is stylishly decorated in contemporary Thai
The hotel provides a set of stationery in the room
View from the room (18th Floor)
Glass facade

My two cents worth: We thoroughly enjoyed our 3D2N stay. The room was spacious and comfortable. The hotel staffs are friendly and helpful. And most importantly, it is conveniently located to the BTS Sky Station.

Nobody by Wonder Girls

Something to share - I first saw the MTV from Light Painter KK's blog. The video is hilarious!
Love the dance,  love their hair, love their clothes, love the faux lashes and love all things Retro!




There is another video titled 2008 Mnet KM Music Awards- Wondergirls which is also nice. They did Tango in the MTV. Kind of also reminded me of Salsa.
