Back To Life….

    Sorry for the absence as of late. Was away for a seminar, and wasn’t really able to take much pictures due to time as well as space :D So for these past few days I took my camera along just in case there might be something interesting while I was walking around. For these insects pictures, I actually took this while I was heading back to the shop after putting the car in Star Cineplex. So suddenly bumped into these little fella, so I took a while to shoot a picture of this ant. Considering the fact that I didn’t had much time, so I went and quickly took this picture and went back on my way. For this picture, I tried and take it as close as I can (I was using the Canon EF28mm-135mm) and actually crop out the unnecessary sides thus causing the ant to actually size up so big. But in actual fact this is the actual size of the ant.
    Anyway, thinking of getting either a Tamron 90mm f2.8 Macro Lens or a Canon EF100mm f2.8 Macro Lens. Whereby the price difference is about RM600-RM800. So still a little bit contemplating on getting either one. Cause it would be pretty cool to shoot these sort of things especially with macro feature on. But in the mean time I could probably do like how Ruey or Wombok did it. But it’s all good. Lol. But with the baby coming up, so you tend to think twice before spending anything. Hehehe.. Anyway, will make do of what I have now at the moment. And apparently I’ve already listed out a few things that I need to get already, just that waiting for some item to close on eBay. Hehe.. And hopefully my budget will not exceed USD100 for these things.. So it’s all good. And as usual, you can head over to my flickr account where I’ve actually stored a few days pictures under one album. Have a nice day!

  3. Hi Photo Buffet. Thanks for dropping by. As for the flower, I’m sorry I can’t really help you there as I myself do not know what it is. Lol. :)
