I promise my mom to help her to take her Montessori’s children photo. The main purpose is to have a picture of the 6 years old children who are going to graduate to Primary school next year. So on Monday morning, I with my Fujifilm FinePix F47 fd start our first task.
To take children photo is harder than adult especially when you ask them to smile. Some of them are truly camera shy and to make them smile and laugh are the toughest. Fortunately i am in that Montessori House since i am 8 years old, so to handle the children and to make them laugh is not a big problem to me.

What we have here is a picture of water droplets on a leaf taken by the Canon IXUS 60. It’s a decent picture but it lacks the ‘umph’. Now, there are a lot of photo-editing software out there which you can purchase/grab. However, I will only discuss Adobe Photoshop as that is my current favourite photo-editing program at the moment. I have used Lightroom before though.

And for those of you who knows me, I’m a food connoisseur! I just like stuffing food down my throat and excreting them from the asshole. Food digestion fascinates me! Don’t get me wrong! I’m not an expert when it comes to the martial arts of culinary. But I do know good food when I taste one.

Where have you been all this while???
