Dinner at Shou Zou

2010-04-20T01:16:00.004+08:00

I have decided to revive this blog. Work has bogged me down the past few months but I need an outlet to get away from all of it. Anyway I recently purchased a Nikkor 24-70 2.8 lens that is so damn expensive but is worth every peso. It is tack sharp at f2.8 and, focuses really fast and built like a tank. Did I mention that it is so damn expensive?! I also bought an 80-200 2.8 last December and all my lenses are fast 2.8 lemses from 11-16mm, 24-70mm, and 80-200. Oh I also have a micro Nikkor 105mm 2.8 and the nifty fifty 1.8. I love my current lens lineup and hopefully(crossing my fingers) I will be satisfied with this lineup up until next year.

Anyway on to my post... I ate dinner at Shou Zou with my mom before visiting my grandmother who is confined in Cardinal Santos Hospital. We ordered Steamed Beef with garlic, Tofu with century egg and pork floss, and Pork and Vegetables Fried Rice. Yum Yum! By the way these were all shot at f2.8 ISO 800 using my new lens! :)

Here is an almost 1 year old pic of Batanes Resort. This was where we stayed at during our Batanes Trip. It located about 15-20min walk from the town but it has a breathtaking view of the ocean since it is situated along the coastline of the island.

HK MTR

I just love the railway system of Hongkong the MTR. I wish we had something similar in the Philippines so that I don't need to bring a car anywhere I go anymore...

Trumpeter 1/35 M1127 Stryker

2009-09-10T23:54:00.004+08:00

I've been really busy lately with work so it has been awhile since I last updated this blog. Anyway I'll post some photos of my recently finished Trumpeter 1/35 M1127 Stryker plastic model kit. This vehicle is the latest armored multirole vehicle of the US military. This is what I have been doing during my free time lately... Yes I need to shoot more often! I guess I got tired shooting since I have been taking pics for work more than personal stuff during the past few months. Anyway back to the topic, I started modeling when I was in grade 5 I think then I stopped late High School and just recently started again although this time more seriously. I ordered a new airbrush from the net and used some of my old paints. I weathered it using pastel chalk for the mud and dust. This kit took me about 2 months to build and paint since I just squeezed it in my busy schedule. Roughly it took about 30 hours to build. I have another kit in line this time a 1/48 Tamiya Sky-Raider ground attack fighter that was used during the Vietnam War. :P
