the Leica

as of now
i think i'll add this little thing to show you what camera i'm actually using to shoot the pictures i'll be displaying in the subsequent posts
and for this one
it'd be this

Photobucket


well
i've been wanting to buy a compact compact camera for a while now
actually i have a few compacts
2 compacts previously to be precise
but then
their size
to me
isn't compact at all man




Photobucket

Canon Powershot D10
bought it for all the underwater pictures
and especially for my Bali trip the other time



Photobucket

Canon Powershot G9
Won it two years ago from the Canon Photo Marathon 2007


these two cams are great
produces amazing pictures
couldn't ask for more from them
but then
they're used only for specific purposes
i use to carry my G9 for my travel trips for all the video-ing
and other random snapshots
the G9 has thus been replaced with the D10 for my travel compact cam
it's more versatile,
and the best thing is
it can shoot underwater :)
so for now,
the G9 will rest in the dry box
and the D10 will definitely be with me if i happen to go to beaches or swimmings for now

see these two camera
despite it's quality
is still a little too big for me
that's when i began researching and finding around a compact compact camera
like
ultra compact camera those kind
i want a small, good, quality, compact camera
so that i can have a camera with me
just for the usual casual snapshots with friends
or for those moments i had always wished i have a camera with me
then
i considered
the Lumix LX 3

i'm comfortable with its price
the size was ok
slightly slimmer than the G9
and produces amazing quality
i went down to look at its actual size
= too big
the lens doesn't retract back in
bulky still in my ultra compact camera category
that's when i further research for a compact camera

somehow
i've never considered sony
i don't know why
and when i saw the Leica C Lux 3
I FEEL IN LOVE immediately !
went down to take a look
did test shots
and was blown away !!!

so
here's the new member of my camera and lenses family !





Photobucket





Photobucket





my very first Leica :)
i'm looking forward to some amazing HD videos and pictures from it in the near future !

arts festival pictures will be resumed tomorrow !

nice.ly

i kinda feel i'm a different person behind the camera
the mood and all the tiredness will disappear
for a while
and it's those moments that make my life complete
the curves of the camera and lens on my hands
viewfinder at the eye
and everything seems to stop
time flies
and for those short moments
i can be at peace
doing what i do best

and so i tried to do what i thought i could
turning two sweet looking models into a rebellious looking teen
which i failed miserably
may be i just wasn't at my optimum condition
i sincerely apologies for that girls :(
but then again again
you guys were great regardless !
and the shoot, though totally went off of the theme i wanted
turned out to be pretty not bad at all :)

so
here's

jer.nice




Photobucket




a totally super awkward pose
which i think she pulls it off amazingly
i really think it's that awkwardness that makes this picture really engaging
there's something in this picture that makes me wonder around it




pearly




Photobucket





pearly
