Brisbane

My gear has been left rotting in my wardrobe. Skills are a lil dusty too.

The two pics are just out of pure luck. Not very impressive anyway :(

Ducks @ University of Queensland

Reflections.

From Phillip Island, With Love.

My camera has been rotting for a few months and i reckon/truly believe that my pre-self-acquired photog skills have gone down the drain.

Nevertheless, people get lucky sometimes and...yeah I had a few lucky shots today! :)

As usual, my pics are usually environment-themed.

Had a cool animal pic though!

Enjoy, and let me know if u like it!

18 yr old koala with her joeyyy! Koalas usually live up to 16 yrs old but....this is a grandma! :)

lucky shot cos d joey is not SLEEPING. LOL!

p.s. the 50mm works again!

i kinda like the light blue patches here and there. However, horizon is not straight....sigh.

just like the feel of this pic :)

till next time!

Winterland.

after dinner, went over to derry's (chern's friend) house for a game of RISK.
tak pernah main.
ok, we start from 10 or 11 ish....




my troops.




the game killed my brain cells. strategy games....not really my thing.

ended the game around.....4AM-ish. 5 friggin hours?! and it ended 'early' cos we couldnt take it anymore and just simply moved our troops.


slept for 2 hours.
woke up at 7AM or left at 7AM, i cudnt remember. wayne dropped us at penang international airport and off we go!



marks the end of penang.....and all my penang posts! =D

oh, before i forget,
i would like to thank WOO YUEN CHERN for being such a kind soul for being our driver, forking out money for our meals, burning his petrol, being such a cool tour guide, depriving his sleep to entertain us providing awesome accomodation with super comfy beds and bringing us around penang =)

i can never be a better guide than him. HEHEHE.

till then, toods! =)

Pearl of the Orient =Day 2 (Noon)

at last, this post contains no food, or any essence of it.

after cendol, we went to Penang Hill! or commonly known in our Kajian Tempatan/Geography textbooks as Bukit Bendera.

i never knew there were the same, until NOW. no wonder i've not heard about penang hill. it should be called Flag Hill or Bukit Penang =S sooo, this trip was quite educational for me too HAHAAHA *bimbo*

we took a tram up the hill (din walk because we're fat we'll waste precious time).



the tram.





built since 1977 and still working! pic credits : chern




a path may diverge, but all roads leads to the same destination. pic credits : chern.

i think i might take forever to complete the penang adventures.

Pearl of the Orient - Day 1

and so, me and lynne took a flight to penang via air asia.
