eBaying
It’s a scary thing, this eBay business. Because once you get into it, you’ll face an absolutely humongous range of things within easy reach, and temptation is very high to start looking for all sorts of toys and gadgets to
Strapless, baby! :)
One of the most tricky things about tottering around a heavy DSLR is the sustained fear that you’ll accidentally drop the damn thing when trying to swing the camera out for a quick shot. There’s the neck strap of course.
Data retrieval
A student was chatting with me last Tuesday afternoon about DSLRs. Basically, he was interested in getting into digital photography, and was asking my opinion on a Nikon D60 setup. We got into quite a discussion, and one issue I
No Questions Asked
I remarked in an earlier post the other day about how there were two printing blemishes in the photobook I did for Ling. It’s a sort of inch long ink smear on one of the last couple of pages in
The Lion, the Aussies, and the Conservationist
There’s a heartwarming video that’s been echoing throughout the web and making the rounds for a week now. It’s worth a watch and about two Aussies, a lion, and a year in between them. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adYbFQFXG0U It’s times like these you’d

Laksa made easy
I finally got down to cooking laksa (nonya version) with the premix bought a couple of months ago. I had intended to do it while Matt was here but we were too busy eating other types of good food! Hee hee.
Driving and diving
After working out the travel and accommodation details, the third step of the process involves figuring out what to do. Usually Ling’s the person who plans the itinerary on our vacations including our most recent trip to Phuket, but I
Beach, night spots or rice fields
Here’s a continuing post from the last entry on flying to Bali.:) Ling was musing out loud yesterday evening while on our way home why is it that Asians are happy with 3D2N stays when the Europeans come to Asia
"I don't wanna die on an Indonesian airplane…!"
Or so Ling went the other week. OK, what’s this about? We started making plans for our second short vacation while at Ayara Hilltops, and narrowed the list of possible places down to a select few. It was going to
