The fun-filled and gorgeous pool-side wedding party was held back in January. I will post more photos after I come back from Bangi next week. For now here’s one quick peek to build up the anticipation.

This post isn’t interesting, nor exciting, but I want to put it up as it’s something tragic I experienced on Thursday. AFE8105, is not camera model (as opposed to what my friend first thought), it is a car. To be exact, the plate number of my car. The car was stolen on Thursday night. When I reached the LRT station parking lot and my car was nowhere in sight, I searched frantically for it, but nada. Nil. Zilch. My car was gone. A few phone calls to my cousins and soon we were on our way to make police report. First to the police station along Old Klang Road, then to another police station at Jalan Pudu. By the time I reached home, it was almost 2 a.m. (Thanks, Paul and Shawn!) Anyhow, after 3 days, my mood has now normalized. Everything happens for a good reason. And I should look on the bright side of it. The silver lining. Dear AFE8105, you have served me well. R.I.P. You’ll be missed.  What is left of my car.. Occasionally we get a question asking about our blog, since there have not been many updates lately. Did we abandon the blog? No. When are we going to post some interesting stuffs? Real soon. Actually, we’ve both been around. Ghee Sin is still shuffling between Kuala Lumpur and Penang but I have moved to Kuala Lumpur recently. Indulging in our work, the blog has been overlooked, temporarily. Like what Arnold Schwarzenegger used to say – I’ll be back before coming back in much fanfare, we are too officially back in action now. Stay tuned for a few wedding sessions and some other exciting posts coming up on this blog. Meanwhile, here’s an image I took while visiting Taiping Lake Garden couple of weeks ago.  Reflection Wishing all our Chinese readers a very Happy and Prosperous Tiger year!!
As 2009 draws to an end, the holiday spirit has certainly livened up, with the malls decorated through the roof and the smile on everyone’s face. Coupled with those year end sales and time spent with family and friends, everyone is having the greatest time of the year. Here at Apexture Photography, we’d like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and an extraordinarily Happy New Year. [insert jingle bell carol] 2009 has been a blast. And 2010 will even be better. We sure hope to see you along in this ride.
#update: Some readers have reported back strange color cast on the photos (yellowish). I checked and found that the problem only occurs in IE and google chrome. If possible, please view this page in Firefox. When you spend 9 days staying in the same hotel, traveling in the same bus and visiting the same tourist spots, together, you make new friends. And that’s what happened during my recent trip to China. I get to know some interesting people. With all 19 other tour members’ age go anyway between 40-year-old and 80-year-old, you add in another chap at half their age and you get an interesting combination. Did I mention 16 out of 20 of them are women? Well, I had a wonderful time. Thank goodness. Now I’m contemplating tours with kids half my age. Dear Ghee Sin, We have some great news for you! The judges in the Digital Camera Photographer of the Year competition have reached a decision – and we’re extremely pleased to tell you that your image, Nostalgia, has been given a Commended award in the Animals category. More than 120,000 entries were received for the 2008 competition, and this was a hotly contested category. You should feel proud of your achievement. Marcus Hawkins  Nostalgia The above winning shot was taken while I was about to leave the zoo. A friendly zoo keeper, seeing me with that huge DSLR, approached me and asked if I would like to shoot some good pictures. Of course I wouldn’t decline such an offer. He led me into a restricted area. It was then I saw this caged orang utan looking nostalgically into the distance. He must be thinking of his happy days swinging from tree to tree in the wild.. More winning pictures from 2008 Digital Camera Photographer of the Year animal category. Ghee Sin Last time someone asked for our business card, we didn’t have one. So we decided to design one ourselves. Now, they are done! The business cards. It took us two weeks from first draft until getting the final prints. It was a fun process, with the first design shown its way to the scrapyard, then a different opinion on choosing an eye-popping vertical design or a more common horizontal approach, and finally a brawl on the street. Okay, kidding on the last part. |
