A friend recommended this hotel in Osaka and we were lucky to be able to book it in a very short amount of lead time. We happened to find it in HotelClub.com and it was at pretty decent price. With this booking confirmed, we are spending a few days in the Osaka neighbourhood.
Nearly forgot to post about the Green House at Kamo Iris Garden. This is a green house that has a traditional Japanese building appearance but has transparent roofs to let light through. It is quite something to see as there are so many plants inside.
After we finished visiting the Kamo Iris Garden, we headed back to our friends’ place for a brief visit. I found the scenery of country side Japan quite relaxing and carefree.
Can’t believe it has been a year already. Every year, snow geese migrate through Richmond and it is a good reminder for me that the year is coming to an end soon. This year I have taken more photos of these birds and share them with you here. In case you missed it, here are a couple of similar posts from 2010 and 2009.
The daylight is getting shorter and shorter. Which means by the time I get off work, the sun would have already set. So naturally I am taking more sunset and evening photos before the rainy season arrives. The Sony Alpha NEX-5N is pretty handy. I am having it with me regularly and it handles low light condition very well. All the photos in this post is taken without a tripod. When you scroll to the bottom of the post, you will see some night shots taken by this camera, too. I like this little camera!
With the recent purchase of the Lumix GF2, I now have 3 types of cameras I can use. DSLR for quality and abundance of accessories, Micro 4/3 for light weight and fully manual photography, and the iPhone 4 for the casual and leisure type photography. And with the iPhone, Camera+ is definitely a must have for better control of exposure, as well as adding effects like these to the otherwise plain-old-camera-phone photos. All these photos are taken using an iPhone 4 and uploaded directly from Camera+ after some effects and borders are added in the app.
In the past week or so, I have taken some test shots to try out the camera in different settings. The Lumix GF2 has a lot to offer in terms of it’s capabilities. It can be used as a simple point-and-shoot style camera, or you can flip it to the different modes and control different aspects of the camera. Here are some of the sample photos I like to share with you.
Time passed by again. Now we are on the second last week of the year and Christmas is just another day away, I am finally able to look at some photos I took during Autumn and thought I would still share them with you.
