Nikon FM2 F8 5″ ASA100 (Kodak Gold)

It’s that Kek Lok Si temple at night. Had to hike a 10 minutes journey up a mosquito infested hill just for this angle. Don’t quite remember the actual settings for this, but I think it should be an F8 5″ (or was it 3″ ? aisehman…) on that same roll of ASA100 Kodak Gold film as that temple picture taken at Raja Uda…

Nikon FM2 F3.5 1″ ASA100 (Kodak Gold)

Taken at Raja Uda, Penang 2005 with my trusty Nikon FM2 (lens: Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/3.5-4.8s), mounted on a Slik U8000 tripod. This picture was scanned from a 3R photo with an entry level Canon scanner, hence the shitty quality. Excuse moi for that.

Hi, my name is Michael. Normally known around the net as Michaelooi, the unscrupulous guy who writes inane stuffs on his blog for his sheer twisted self absorbing pleasure. Whatever.

But there’s one side of me that not many people know of - that is my naturally given aptitude in arts and photography which have made me millions of bucks. Alright, I lied. I’m just another guy who’s very compassionate in arts and never became good enough of it to be a professional. And it has been 8 years since I’ve been doing this - capturing the sights that I love with my cameras, or any photography equipment I happen to lay my hands on.

But that’s not important really. What’s more important, is that I’ve been given a chance to showcase amongst the worst of my work here to torture your mind, and we’ll have to thanks Digisniper for that. Constructive feedbacks will be appreciated.

My cameras : Canon EOS 350D, Nikon FM2, Sony F707, Canon Ixus 500, Minolta Riva Zoom Pico (sometimes even disposable cameras…)
My photoblog : Capacity Overload

This picture was taken outside my apartment a few months ago. It’s the same view I see when I go to work every morning. It was on that morning, that the shutterbug bit me and got me into capturing this view…

Canon EOS 350D F8 4″ ISO100
