Image of a white horse with the Saqqara pyramid in the back ground.

I am back.
Got myself pre paid mobile broadband which seems to be working.

Can’t believe I am still stuck with images from Egypt. Will share some snaps from Cambodge soon I hope.

Been VERY with work this year and have not been taking and developing pictures as much as I’d love too.
Hopefully my hectic schedule will slow down a little in the near future…….

Mainly TriX and Fuji Reala. Some XP2 and Fuji Pro 400H.

Shot a total of 32 rolls of film only. I certainly did not try to ‘save’ film. Just shot whenever I felt like. Interesting because I expected to shoot more than 32. Note to self – make conscious effort to shoot more perhaps =D

Anyeways, leaving KL soon. Here are some colour shots with the Olympus XA (such a wonderful camera everybody should have one!!!) and Fuji Pro 400H

Vintage Holden shot at f5.6.

I prefer the one shot wide open at f2.8.

Which one do you like better?

Vintage Holden shot wide open, f2.8. The film was over-the-counter Kodak Ultramax 400.

Again, i like the vignetting and how the camera renders the colour and contrast when shot wide open. A tad soft but who cares when everything works =D. Love this picture !!! 

Check back tomorrow and see how the same image would look when shot at f5.6………

Thought since I introduced my new old (…or old new) Olympus XA last weekend, why not follow with some photos =D
This is literally the first shot taken with the XA after reading the manual and loading a roll of Kodak Ultramax 400 from my hotel room.

I am quite sure this was shot at f2.8. Totally dig the vignetting – purely optical, not added digitally.
