Jennifer's Switzerland Holiday

Thanks to Digi Malaysia, Jennifer was on a trip to Switzerland invited by friends from KK last August. Browsing at her collections after the trip, these selected shots have been in my folder for quite a while. Time to let em out!

Being her, she can carry her Canon Ixus point & shoot camera with her everywhere she goes but you don't expect her to be using it. I've got to admit, I'm the 'shutterbug' between us. Only one day before the trip, I gave her a 'crash course' in using the Nikon D40X with kit lens 18-55mm attached. She even slept halfway when I came to the technical part like setting the shutter speed & aperture. Can you believe that? Anyway, reading & listening to experiences of those who've been there, I didn't want her to shoot using just a point & shoot camera since Switzerland is well known for its beautiful sceneries. Therefore I urged her to bring along the D40X since I was not invited to come along... *Sob..*sob.. But then again, if I was invited to come along, you wouldn't be seeing her '1 Hour D40X Photography Course' results in this post now, would you?!

Although I'm frequently shooting with the Nikon D300 now, I must say the D40X has never fail to deliver the best colors since I first got it & of course, I still love this compact little DSLR camera! D40X is no longer in production but for interested beginners, I recommend the Nikon D60. If you can chip-in a bit more extra cash, go for Nikon D80. You will notice a different watermarking on these photos. That's because, they were shot by Jenn (obviously) but I did the minor touch ups. Lets just say for now, J.C (Jennifer Chang) Photography is picking up... So...Enjoy......

Labuan Airport

While waiting for my flight from Labuan to KK last Monday, I tried to do some architectural photography, if thats what you call it. The roof and the flooring moved me to try a few shots. No flash, just slow shutter all the way...

Ryan & Judith's Wedding

I'm back and gotta tell you it has been one hectic weekend. Nevertheless, it was an interesting one. Jenn & I were back in KK for Ryan & Judith's wedding. We even met some familiar faces from Florencius & Sheena's wedding at the dinner reception. Here are some details I've captured. It was indeed a thrill to finally meet and also shooting alongside Mr Syahrin Aziz (Photoshop Guru). I shot without flash most of the time coz my speedlight 'decided to go on a break'. All I had was 'available light'. Even though so, I think it went well. Thanks Syahrin for the tips..

To Ryan & Judith, we had a great time! I even did the 'Poco-Poco' for the 1st time..How COOL is that? Look forward to seeing you guys again! Again, CONGRATULATION!
