Taking some shots at Putrayaja

Got a new cam on Saturday night. Thanks to compulsive buying and Wayne, a retarded friend. LoL!

It's a Sony A300. Funny thing is, I've never been a fan of Sony... Well, except for Ps2. But they have the cheaper camera kits to start off your photography. And I needed something CHEAP. :p



Not long after I returned home and turn on the Pc Razrig@Baka-Steam messaged me to see if I wanted to go for a photo shoot or something the following day. Lol !Talk about perfect timing!

So I tagged along, took some photos as he taught me quite alot of stuffs. I also found out that I suck at remembering roads. -.-"



Editing the Raw files of the photos was another part of the fun with photography; as I fiddled around to see what I can squeeze out of it. The toughest part for me during editing was to decide if I wanted to
1) sharpen everything and lose the smoothness of the color or
2) leave it as it is, giving a more natural feel but slightly blur pictures.
In the end, I decided to sharpen everything. And probably will keep doing so until I learn how NOT to take out of focus shots. :p



Feel free to imagine your own captions. I'm all out of brain power. Lol!

Not bad for my first photo session with my new A300 eh... :p
*If you could only see how big my head is now :p*

Nendoroids and Mikuru's were courtesy of Razrig for the photoshoot. I only brought the figmas.

First Attempt at D.I.Y. Display Box

I've always had access acrylic pieces and a sawing machine which we use to produce one of our goods. And I've been thinking how cool it would be if I had a nice looking display kit for my models. Since leaving them hidden in my closet kind of defeats the purpose I bought them. Then seeing that there was a few discarded acrylics lying around at the factory and today was an off-day at work (can someone say FFFRRRRRRREEEEEDDDDDDDOOOOOMMMMM!!!??? Lol!) I finally got my lazy arse off the chair and my eyes off the computer. Went to the factory and did my very own display box.

Funny thing is, first piece I cut and damn! Already a mistake. Lol! Had the bottom base of the box cut too short. Hence the white color piece lying across the base of the display box. To "lift" the cover so that the top will align with the the box. Else the cover will just drop inside. Lol! -.-"

What better way to take photos than to have my 2 new wai-fus pose in it. :p
Without cover
With cover on

Miku


Unfortunately,Shana and Miku will both be going back into the closet for now. That's cause I have an idea in my head for recreating this. Lol! Let's hope the result will come out all right. First thing to do then would be a background print.
