2 weeks before new year

Wooo, it’s been a week i’m not blogging :)

Got a photography workshop last weekend, half day photo session at Kota tua on Sunday.

3 days workshop at Jakarta. Pretty busy for the end of 2010 :)

Haven’t take many pictures, but here they are.

Usual place, Sudirmara Train station on Monday morning. I got nice lines in the picture from the train, the roof, border line on the floor :P

Sushi!!

I Love Sushi!!

It’s my lunch (opening menu actually :P) during 3 days workshop at JW Marriot :P *yummy*

The Dark Cloud

Jakarta’s weather is not so nice last couple weeks. You can see the dark cloud behind Mall Ambassador building overthere. I took this picture from JW Marriot toilet :P

I’ll make post about photo session and my new Nikkor 50mm f/1.8. It’s cheap lens, and a superb one :)

iPhone 4 – Accessories

OK, seperti yang sudah saya tulis kemarin jika Telkomsel akan resmi meluncurkan iPhone 4 mulai tanggal 17 Desember 2010 nanti. Saya sendiri sih dah pakai sejak selepas Idul Fitri kemarin (Thanks to Didik Achmadi & Bagus dari id-gmail). Salah satu yang menarik dari iPhone 4 ini adalah … kameranya.

Dibandingkan Samsung Galaxy S mungkin kalah megapixel apalagi dibandigkan Nokia N8 dengan 12Mpix dan lensa Carl Zeiss nya. Dalam postingan daily photo (sayang utang 2 hari) selama desember 2010 ini, kebanyakan saya menggunakan iphone. Aplikasi untuk keperluan ini murah-murah di Apple Store. Bahkan ada yang gratis kaya Instagram.

Seiring dengan hobi baru ini, saya butuh aksesoris tambahan. Saya berangan-angan bikin video (full length video loh) menggunakan iphone seperti yang dapat dilihat di video berikut ini.

Nah tentu saya perlu tripod dan steadycam.

Zgrip mahal. Shipping ke sinipun pasti akan kena palak macam-macam di beacukai dan entah dinas mana yang terkait.

Manfrotto Modo Steady masih belum nemu. Nitip kolega di Singapore juga belum dapat. Oktagon katanya jual tapi dikonfirmasi ga ada.

Jadi saya maenan dengan tripod kecil seperti ini ajah dulu untuk permulaan :)

Nice ^_^

Bisa buat hp lain dengan dimensi lebar paling ga sama ma iPhone n kameranya ga ketutup bagian tengah gripnya :)

Google Nexus One

Samsung Spica

Setelah dicoba, cuman Blackberry (Torch) terutama yang ga bisa. Abis bodi handsetnya bongsor sih :)

Monday Morning on December

My monday morning agenda was taking my 2009 Rush to Toyota Auto2000 Workshop at Sektor 7. Honestly i felt sad every time I look at it. So dirty and not well maintained. There are some new scratches I knew weren’t there before. It look like being a slave whole time instead of partner :(

I knew it’s a metaphor, but I never treat any of my stuff, whether books, clothes, gadgets, vehicle, anything unmaintained. (except my 2x5m space that supposed to be a garden). Like a pet, you should also take care of it. And it really hurt my feeling.

Anyway, Rush will be in good hands from 10am to 3pm. So where should i go next? Go back home is not an option. Because, there are BLOODY TRAFFIC JAM at Jalan Perigi and Jl Bintaro Utama between McD and Ace Hardware. Both of them because of road maintenance.

Ah, McD. Breakfast and free WiFi :) Internet connection at Toyota Sektor 7 is a hoax. It’s completely sux :P It’s almost 11am and there’s no bazaar and any activities anymore around BTC. To McD, then. Brunch + 2 cups of coffee made me better hehehehehehe.

Cute Baby Boy

Cute Baby Boy

A family sat in front of me and have this baby boy with them. This baby boy was so cute and has nice smile :) He always smile and say baby words every time i waived my hand :)

Remind me of Deden & Ririe ‘s Athar ^_^. Ah Kang Athar how’re you doin now?

Blue Tree at December 11th

Blue Tree

Stuck in the office for almost a day (yea i know it’s weekend). Bad weather outside and i havent taken any picture yet for this month project. Ewww, at lease a photo a day just for December 2010 counting down.

Finally got out around 9pm. Destination home and find a place to have dinner first. So i went to Cilandak Town Square. On second thought suddenly i wanna watch a movie also. Ok, Russel Crow‘s The Next Three Days was my choice. It’s played at  10pm, i have only 10 minutes to eat :P Finding a parking lot for your car was a bit of challenge on the weekend on there hehehehehe

There i spot the tree and took the picture from first floor, outside Score! It’s should be better picture if I used the LX5. But what can I say, the iPhone4 always on my hand.

December – Day 5

ojek sepeda

Sunday sunday sunday. It’s day #5 of my PhotoDec2010 project.
There’s no sun (almost) during the day. Cloudy and part of South Jakarta was raining. Didnt have plan where to spend this sunday afternoon, so i just went to Kota Tua (Jakarta Old City Area) with Rara. She’s never been there (at noon) before, so i guest it’s best for us to look around and came back on another day for taking pictures.

Weather was not good, looks like there was rain couple hours before and still drizzle falling. Cant take many photos, just sight seeing around Fatahillah Square.

These are some pictures taken with my iPhone4
