    hehe thank you for commenting la! even though there're no propz... haha
    this will probably be my second last post i believe...

    these dayz:
    same sh*t here
    nth special
    ...
    ..
    .
    https://xanga.crowdhoster.com/relaunch-xanga
    so... xanga's future doesn't look very bright...
    well well...
    i remembered that once upon a time,
    i wondered what would happen if xanga's server had crashed
    or if they have to close down...
    then all our memories... would simply disappear...
    ...
    back then it looked impossible
    everyone had xanga
    everyone were commenting on each other's xanga
    ...
    then facebook came along
    xanga lock was introduced
    xanga traffic dropped... a lot...
    ...
    i'm actually quite surprised that xanga is still around for so long
    but looks like...
    this is it...
    o wells...
    picz time anyways

    digital shots...
    from jan / feb...


    bought an Olympus Pen E-P1 with 14-42 for $175 off craigslist
    i never used the kit lens... its too big & too slow
    i used my Pen F 40 1.4...


    and with the 40 1.4 on a digital pen, it becomes a sweet, fast, short-tele macro


    yummy bokeh... :D :D


    more


    more more
    crazy shallow DOF
    :D :D


    within a few weeks, i bought myself a 15 f8 body cap lens
    for $50 new, why not? its great fun!
    optically it's gd enough for the internet...
    f8 is rather slow... but with in-body IS, it is usable under normal interior lighting


    ugly wilson ho at kerrisdale camera
    note how the 15 f8 has a sweet amount of vignette / fall-off
    yummmm


    sharpness is acceptable...


    i don't rememebr what my settings were
    but dude these colors are so VIVID!
    yummy :D :D


    more yummy colors


    at our factory


    crazy interior of a 59 impala
    love those instrument clusters...

    that's it
    propz me while you can!
    this is likely my second last entry...
    one more next weekend...
    then on July 16, everything here goes POOF!
