on CHINESE NEW YEARS EVE, we had:

grilled barra

shrimp on the barbie, and rumps of lamb

Lapis Surabaya

I'm PRETTY SURE, we are meant to have noodles of some sort...and this food is very typical of AUSTRALIA DAY.

had a nice but short stay down the coast.

Lake Conjola, is around 3 hours drive from Sydney, which I believe is the perfect driving time and distance since it's a decent drive, yet short enough to not let you get sick of the car..

broken flash :(

2012-01-21T00:34:00.001+11:00

quick post here... so i broke my SB-600.

walking around the city tonight, the latch holding it down failed/slipped and the whole unit came crashing down on george street.

i was hoping it would resurrect itself, but it seems unlikely, as firing the forced flash shows me an attempted circuit completion in the flash unit... seems like the connection has been broken in there :(

oh well, time to look at the SB-700. just need to find $350 :s

Mechsoc BBQ Week 10 [2011 S2]

2011-10-03T21:00:00.000+11:00

all the action from the week 10 BBQ

we were very lucky to have the heavens clear up, after rain was forecast for the day. the organisers were definitely teetering on the edge of cancellation after a squally storm swept through at around 11am, but it cleared fast enough for the skies to part and for the BBQ to go ahead. pretty sure everyone was glad that it did, because the turnout was fantastic - we had the perfect amount of sausages!

helping us today at the BBQ was the head of school, Anne Simmons, serving out the bread to all the hungry and some unknowing students!

bombed!

looking a bit concerned here

2011-09-12T21:30:00.000+10:00

so FINALLY i went plane spotting this year!

again going with vb, we went super early, 8am to the airport.

but to our disappointment, the Qantas Drive spot was closed again, so we had to resort to the beach and the mound.. usually we'd get the bad light in the morning at the beach, but due to the overcast conditions we had, we had acceptable light for photos :)

Sunday Father's Day dinner was at Marigold in Chinatown!

It's actually been a while since I've been there, so it was good returning to an old favourite. However, it was unusual for me to go there and not have Yum Cha for once!

Anyway, I didn't really get the chance to take food photos, because as a typical chinese restaurant, the dishes weren't served in an amazingly appealing fashion...

I do have interesting pics below though:

Bizarre Bazaar - September

2011-09-07T18:36:00.000+10:00

Hey people - Bizarre Bazaar (wohoo, got the spelling right!) is on again TOMORROW!

And this time I'm the official photographer for the event :) so if you want to see me tomorrow evening from 5:30-9pm, do come around to:
The Club/Ssh Bar in Kings Cross

As described on the website:

A Series of Fortunate Events are proud to bring you Bizarre Bazaar - a project injecting contemporary fashion to laneways and quirky nooks around Sydney. Bizarre Bazaar gives designers the opportunity to present and sell their collections to Sydney's shoppers every month in funky and intimate settings - laneways, galleries, open spaces...

Guests, media and designers alike have described Bizarre Bazaar as a contemporary antidote to Sydney's alcohol-fueled nightlife. With the support of local designers and the reach of partnered media, the project will only continue to gain momentum and public support. Bizarre Bazaar showcases the unique talents of Sydney's talented fashion designers - both completely new to the industry or already established market stallholders.

See you there!

Father's Day #1 - Bondi Icebergs

2011-09-06T17:21:00.001+10:00

an early father's day was had at the Bondi Icebergs Club Bistro :)

the location oversees bondi beach, having great views of the waves and the whole beach line. even though the wind was blowing, sitting on a protected balcony allowed a pleasant dining experience with decent food without an excessive cost.

parking is a little expensive and hard to get, but if you get lucky, you'll find a few spots around the streets

make sure you go on a good day if you are faint hearted with the sea!

(couldn't get many good shots of the view due to the plastic covers that blurred the images :(

fishmarkets

2011-09-02T20:35:00.000+10:00

so myself and the dearest went to the fishmarkets. here's how it unfolded:

Me: "Where should we go for brunch today?"

N: "I'm starving, salmon benedicts at Cafe Jack's?"

Me: "Done."

*crossing anzac bridge*

N: "Hey how about the fish markets?"

Me: "Oh yeah why not?"

N: "Love impromptu trips"

evatures @ Jones Street UTS - aftermath

2011-08-31T19:40:00.000+10:00

ended up helping (standing around) and also taking photos (using the fellow stall holder's 18-200) for eva at her evatures stall during the UTS open day.

sold a fair few items...but a there were more people who were interested and grabbed a business card!

did you miss out? your last chance to buy one or more of these miniatures in person is TOMORROW on Level 3 of the tower building from 10-4 at UTS.

WANT: 18-200mm lens

2011-08-30T10:58:00.000+10:00

So I have decided to replace my tag team 18-55 & 55-200 with the 18-200 all in one lens..

I got sold on Saturday, when manning the stalls for evatures, when my fellow stall holder had his 18-200 and let me have a play with it.

18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S VR ED DX

This means I am SELLING both the 18-55 and 55-200.

18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S VR DX @ $120

55-200mm f/4-5.6 AF-S VR II ED DX @ $200

My final dilemma is where/how to buy the 18-200. Options as follows:

Hong Kong: Have someone purchase it in Hong Kong in person, at the current emailed quote of HKD6350, which is roughly AUD765. Price may lower if haggled..
Adorama: Order a Nikon Refurbished item for USD762, which is roughly AUD718 (incl shipping)
Ebay: Ebay a used first version of the lens for around AUD500, without full confidence in quality.

Help? Suggestions?

evatures @ Jones Street UTS

2011-08-26T22:38:00.002+10:00

my lovely friend eva, who runs evatures, is running a stall tomorrow from 9-4 at UTS on Jones street during their markets! I'll be there helping from around 12-3, so if you want to visit me too, then come! I'll be armed with my camera, so please visit, and consider buying some of these minatures! more details here.

can't make tomorrow? late notice much? how about wednesday and thursday on level 3 of the tower building?

evatures hand makes miniature clay models, ranging from food, pianos, doves and animals!
have a look at some samples below :)

an afternoon snack

2011-08-20T15:08:00.001+10:00

i had leftover smoked salmon, leftover semi dried tomato and fetta dip, some camembert cheese and some crackers..so what happened next was all a blur, because i was hungry.

attempting eggs benedict

2011-08-19T18:57:00.000+10:00

as a favourite brunch dish, we figured it would be best to have a shot at the food that makes us so fat and happy every brunch at Cafe Jack's: Salmon Benedict.

The basic structure goes (from the bottom):

Toasted Turkish

Smoked Salmon

Buttered Baby Spinach

Poached Eggs

Hollandaise Sauce

For the first attempt, definitely a success. Improvements for next time include:

Stacking it properly..

Working faster

Making even better hollandaise!

prepping all the bowls to make it

the hollandaise sauce was BY FAR the hardest thing to make.
you had to whisk eggs yolks over a warm bowl (not hot or it will cook), then add butter very slowly (cubed, one at a time) and keep whisking to avoid separation and curdling.. this alone took half an hour! Then you added some lemon juice with salt and pepper to taste :)

Prepping the plates :)

what it looks like cut open

finished product! :)

film roll #2

2011-08-18T09:03:00.000+10:00

on my second roll, i can already see some improvement and the better hit rate of in-focus images and correct exposures :)

i love the grain of film :)

once again shot with the Ricoh XR500 with the 50mm f/2 on Lomography ISO400 film.

film is the reason why i've posted a little less recently, as obviously i don't get instant results...

watch this space.

photo excursion (geocaching)

2011-08-15T15:39:00.001+10:00

so i kinda went on a short photo excursion.. only to the one place on the northern rocks of maroubra beach :)

preceded by a lovely yum cha, we impulsively chose to find this geocache item, which seemed to have been stolen :(

oh hai

shot at ankle height, without looking through the viewfinder. talk about ankle firing!

we love our random photos of random items.

film roll #1

2011-08-09T20:13:00.001+10:00

the results were amazing.

the grain doesn't bother me much, as this is ISO400 colour negative lomography film.

these were all shot with the 1978 Ricoh XR500 with a 50mm f/2 lens :)

not bad for a first roll!

also, I've ordered more film. this time the Fuji Superia X-TRA ISO400.

almost a product photo of the D5000, had the white actually been dominating in the background..

2011-08-08T10:22:00.000+10:00

better be worth it, makes me take better pics anyway :)

so we welcome the newest camera into the very small one camera family :)

an amazing time was had yesterday shooting random photos of le girl while chilling at home basically doing nothing. also got to catch up with PAUL in the afternoon :D

but the real shiz was had later on during the night, where scary things were said - yet they didn't scare either of us! Good times ahead :)

Actually, the most random thing of yesterday was how we came up with a marketing idea of trying to have dolls of myself in different forms. These include:

Driving Glenn
Photographer Glenn
Fail/Normal Glenn
Goalie Glenn
Cricket Glenn
Running Glenn
Awkward Glenn
Cyclist Glenn
Engine-Ear Glenn

and the list went on :)
