the childlike empress: April 2010

Gotcha!!! Haha these pictures just make you wanna get married right away huh? It looks so devine, lovely and feels warm and informal. If I ever get married, this is exactly the kind of thing I would like to arrange for my friends and family. It's so magical fairytale like with all the garden lights...
I hate the same old Chinese traditional wedding dinner. Where you need to spend so much for a hotel ballroom, invite like plenty of people and you ended up don't recognize half of them, Walking tables to tables and start shouting 'YAM SENG' (drink to victory). That's so not my thing~ I find it rather annoying.
It's my wedding day~ I just want it to be simple...I want to spend some quality time with my love one, my family and friends. A stage, dance floor and a jazz band is a must. Dad I know you'll be reading this...I want you to sing on my wedding day and that two song would be butterfly kisses by Bob Carlisle and Iris by goo goo dolls.
I guess it's too soon to blog about this...Cause I haven't found my other half yet haha~

I've got goody goody stuff to share with you lovely readers...

Well a lot of people been asking me how I edit my pics?

TADAA!

This camera that makes wonders!
No editing needed!

Olympus is so generous for giving me a chance to test out the Olympus Pen E-PL1 camera. Well after using for like a few weeks I totally fall in love with it. I'm not the only one who's crazy about it. People around me who saw me using this camera they gone koo koo too LOL~

colleague gone crazy!

The boss gone crazy!

The friend from Australia love the camera too!

Look what I'm talking about haha~

Nowadays Digital cameras have really come far way... At the heart of the E-PL1 is a large-size image sensor that's the same sensor as the one inside the Olympus E-30 and E-620 Digital SLR models. The only difference between this sensor and what the pros use is that this big sensor is inside the much smaller body of the E-PL1. It's really handy I can bring it any where I want, It's very light and save up so many space.

This high-performance 12.3-megapixel Live MOS image sensor. It delivers excellent dynamic range, accurate color fidelity, and state-of-the-art technology to reduce noise and capture fine image details in both highlight and shadow areas.

The other day when i was exploring the whole camera with Wayne. I accidentally press this button and slideshows suddenly pop out from the screen with musics... Both of us look at each other and laugh our heart out hmm...ok we acted a little jakun. But seriously we were like wth so canggih! Slideshows have never been that easy or more fun to create. The E-PL1's enhanced playback functions allow you to employ effective fade-in/fade-out techniques, control the movie/still mix and speed, add captivating musical soundtracks, and much more. Interesting right!

One of the best and interesting thing about this camera is the ART FILTERS. The E-PL1 has six in-camera Art Filters,including a new filter called Gentle Sepia. This filter gives your images and videos a soft warm sepia cast similar to historical images from the early days of photography, and joins Pop Art, Soft Focus, Pin Hole, Grainy Film and Diorama. This totally make my job so much easier. I don't have to spend hours retouching my image on the computer.

The E-PL1 is the first camera in the Olympus PEN series with a built-in pop-up flash that makes it easy to illuminate low-light subjects, reduce red eye, and fill in dark areas. The camera is also compatible with a range of optional external flashes including the Olympus FL-36R and FL-50R that can be controlled wirelessly by the E-PL1, so you can dynamically control lighting.

C'mon tell me you love this camera already cause I'm totally in love with it =).

Anyway feast ya eyes with some of these pics i took when i was back in my hometown Malacca!

Next stop JONKER STREET!

This is one of my favourite art filter 'Pin Hole'
You can see I use it a lot for most of my pictures =)

When you're in Jonker Street you got to try the Nyonya Asam Laksa and If you're a Durian person try out the Durian Cendol too. It's yummylicious~

After makan we take a walk around the street. Well Jonker Street is famous for the vintage shops. I'm a vintage freak so if I'm there i'll definitely spend some time to look around and I saw this that makes me laugh my heart out 'FLYING FROG' ! Those thing look retarded though...lmao~

You can't miss the mouth watering Nadeje cakes if you're in Malacca. Bel even ordered 2 whole cake for herself and Melvin.
