My Gear - Mac Book Air

 

finally I am also a Apple user ... I am totally new, not use to the OS for the 1st tough ....

but the screen great ... the weight of the MBA just amazing ....

- it even thinner than my Lumix Len cap ...








but too bad it is smaller by 50% of my workstation

not much thing attract me now ... have to test myself and will update how fast I adopt MAC OS after ~15years of Windows and UNIX users ...... 1st question is how I maximise my browser ??? :D

News - Colorless

I do prefer colorful especially the beauty of Nature... I love the green, orange, golden color of the sky... leaf ..............

But I have to admit at certain view and weather.. it is always good to capture it as mono ... but I still not agree those unwanted picture to be convert to Mono instead .... we should always plan what we want to PP while we plan our shooting (but this do not mean we have to shoot in Black and White) but we can plan it, shoot it and convert it ..........

still long for me to learn ... it is totally new to me ...................................time to look around for expert and books .............


this was beautiful morning with golden Sun ray


mono make the mystery feel



weather was real bad ... no color at all on the sky .... I play with 10 stops filter to create the line .


I had create new set @flick
