A few more days...

Yesterday, after the rain, while the sun hasn't set, we went over to the new flat to see how the renovation is progressing.

The floor tiles have already been laid down and done, as well as the master bedroom toilet tiles. And that is after the removal of the old bathtub was removed, which necessitated the removal of the remaining floor tiles and wall tiles, which required hacking. But that is all done now.

While in the rented flat, I've been able to use only my Samsung Omnia II phone to take pictures of the views presented to me now and then. And so, while not quite dramatic, the essence is still there. I have a picture of the sunrise, and a picture of the sunset. Some that I've taken are blur, but I managed to get quite clear takes.

I have also the morning sun in red, when the haze from Indonesia blanketed Singapore, the recent haze I mean.

So here they are, and hopefully, while I'm not able to use my dSLR, that doesn't stop me from taking photos.

Book review: MASTER LIGHTING GUIDE for Commercial Photographers

I managed to read the book before I returned it to the library, and true enough, as it was mentioned in the preface section, there were a lot of easy-to-understand figures and diagrams on lighting.

What is actually good about this book is that the diagram is presented, and the resulting photograph is also included. gives you both an insight on how to position your light, what direction, what height, how strong (or soft), etc., etc., and it also comes with the picture that will be taken using that particular lighting structure.

Also tells of the different lighting types, and its accessories.

Not much I will say, so that I will leave the rest for the book to tell about itself.
