Fireworks @ Jasin, Malacca

As usual, my CNY celebration will back to Malacca where my grandparents stay – Jasin, Malacca.

When trying to capture my grandpa praying for the prosperity god, there were some nice fireworks from others houses, without delay, change my camera position and adjust to longer exposure like 30seconds and small aperture like f/22, with tripod and manual focus. I tried a lot and failed, finally get what I want, a few fireworks in a single frame. This is it!

Stay Healthy! Stay Happy! Stay young!

The definition of biodegradability

Biodegradability definition

According to

Towards Common Ground –

Meeting Summary of the International Workshop on Biodegradability,

Annapolis, MD, USA, 1992.

· For all practical purposes of applying a definition, material manufactured to be biodegradable must relate to a specific disposal pathway such as composting, sewage treatment, denitrification, or anaerobic sludge treatment.

· The rate of degradation of a material manufactured to be biodegradable has to be consistent with the disposal method and other components of the pathway into which it is introduced, such that accumulation is controlled.

· The ultimate end products of aerobic biodegradation of a material manufactured to be biodegradable are carbon dioxide, water and minerals and that the intermediate products include biomass and humic materials. (Anaerobic biodegradation was discussed in less detail by the participants).

· Materials must biodegrade safely and not negatively impact on the disposal process or the use of the end product of the disposal.

Aerobic biodegradation

CPOLYMER + O2 -------------->

CO2 + H2O + CRESIDUE + CBIOMASS

Anaerobic biodegradation

CPOLYMER -------------------->

CO2 + CH4 + H2O + CRESIDUE + CBIOMASS

Terbalik dah!

What's wrong when a government is taking action towards those refuse to comply the law regardless of the races?

2008 - MPPP took action against 2,063 illegal hawkers for non-compliance of the law. Malays - 785 cases (38%), Chinese - 1,082 cases (52%), and Indians - 196 cases (10%).

2009 - MPPP took action against 2,789 illegal hawkers for non-compliance of the law. Malays - 815 cases (29%), Chinese - 1,727 cases (62%), and Indians - 247 cases (9%).

This is fact!

According to UMNO-online,
this is considered as non-humanity act for the malay community...

so?!
Is the government only taking actions on certain races?
or taking actions on the ILLEGAL hawkers regardless of races?

Based on the MPPP statistic, Chinese illegal hawkers were the 62%!!!!!!
I wonder why the picture of their stall demolished are never published in those newspaper?
If the newspaper is not RACISM, what's that?!

How can we trust the media who is lying?!

Reasons for the hairless moment

21st Oct 2010, I cut and shave my hair and become a 'BOTAK'.
There were several reasons for me to do that and I love to be botak!
1. I don't like to care about my hair, no matter how I 'set' them, they still messy.
2. My hair not very much already.
3. I like to be botak (because got people praise me handsome when im botak, haha!)

Dream again....

Recently, I'm tends to be forgetful...

Last week, my first tripod arrived, I was so happy and naive to think that I should be able to grab a 50mm f1.8 II canon EF lens into my bag this week...

Today is 2nd October, my bank account doesnt have much left for the October...

I knew the fact is I cant afford now but, hehe, still thinking positive, can wan la... can wan la...

However, I still need to back to reality and accept the fact that, 50mm, is still a dream...

Have a good night dream tonight!

Focus on your research lah, bustard! dream dream dream....

My first tripod, pop-up flash diffuser, D.I.Y diffuser and remote cable release!

Just bought a relatively cheap tripod from China. Together, free a cable release.
Due to budget problem, after a survey of a year, still cant buy a external flash gun, I wanna try strobe! so, I refer to an angmo DIY this diffuser + bounce card to make the built-in flash softer, the result is really nice! but eat a lot of my 450D power... Then a ready-made diffuser cost RM20, together with a holder and 3 pieces of diffuser, so why not give it a try, and i bought it.
If ask me which one is better, I still prefer the DIY one, hehe... feel the bouncing part made the light source bigger and diffuse more light.
Weekend is coming!

Nibong Weifeng Fancier professional tripod FT628T tripod + 6663H ball head


This is the ball head, there is a compass and level indicator


The fully extended tri-legs... there is a hook to hook on a heavier bag to make it more steady during windy sesssion...


My first trial of DIY diffuser... Consist of 2 parts
(the aluminium part - bounce the direct flash light back to the bounce card)

This bounce card part to diffuse the hard light to be more soft.
Problem is the way to stick to DSLR instead of holding it with my hand. on the way...

This is the free gift coming with the tripod, solid built and fun gear.
