New style and look!

Finally, I have time to upgrade my theme to a different one. After sometimes browsing for the right theme, I managed to find this theme made by Studio Press (Brian Gardner). It looks great and I love the features, presentations and the color too.
There are still some changes or fixes that I need to do in order to get older posts and photos to be displayed correctly. Hopefully soon it’ll be done!
Please do enjoy the new style and look. And more photos to come!
Cheers,
Rudy

Happy New Year 2008 to you all
Finally got a chance to stay at home and watched fireworks on t.v.
The fireworks happened on the Space Needle but apparently this year the fireworks seemed to be a little bit malfunctioning.
Some of them didn’t go out at the right time and so on. Who cares!! hahahaha as long as we enjoy 2007 and welcome 2008 right?!!
Alright!! Happy New Year to you all and wish you the best in the coming year!!
Christmas is near :)

Finally got a chance to walk around Bellevue downtown area with my wife.
It was snowy on that Friday 11.31.2007 then rain heavily during the weekend.
Got us a Christmas tree and build on that Sunday
Photoshop Actions

Ahh what a week of rainy days. It’s going to be challenging to take a photo during a rainy day. I’m planning on doing one hopefully this month before the snow pours in.
Finally, I had a time to clean up the messy photo folder. And tell you the truth that the Adobe Light Room is the coolest software I’ve ever found that will take care the management of my photos (< 500 photos). The searchable keywords, the presets, and many other fun and professional tools are very useful.
I poked a few around with photoshop and actions these past days and found out that there are some cool actions out there (thanks to the creators) that makes me want to create my own cool action. Below are some of the photos being photoshop’ed

wohooo, my bogen tripod has arrived and the wireless remote RC-5 as well hopefully will try to use them soon.
These past days I havent got a chance to photo anything yet. Since this week had been a clear sky week for Seattle-ian So I want to go out soon and explore more.
My friends and I have organized a photo event that we will go this Saturday to the Golden Park in Ballard. I am hoping to get more and more experience and as well as enjoy the scenery. Keep ‘em coming hehehe.
This is cool..a house between two rocks

Tripod, Wireless Remote and Circular Polarizer
October 25, 2007 by Rudy Setiawan · Leave a Comment
Ahh the the three things that I need. And wow they are expensive as well 
I am currently looking at the following model:
Tripod: Bogen/Manfrotto 725B Digi Black Tripod with Ballhead (Quick Release) = USD 112.95
Use for: My cheap tripod broke and my friend, Supri, recommends me to get Bogen Tripod.
Used before: Yeah I tried Supri’s Bogen, wow it’s so solid and stable. But his is the more advanced one, it can do vertical as well and custom ballhead as well.
Wireless Remote: Canon RC-1 Wireless Remote Control = USD 24.95
Use for: dont want to wait for 10 seconds timer to avoid movements hehe.
Circular Polarizer:
1. Hoya 72MM Circular Polarizer Glass Filter = USD 64.50; OR
2. B&W 72MM Circular Polarizer Glass Filter Slim = USD 99.95
Use for: to filter reflections on the water/windows and to make the sky more blue
Argghh easily $300++
I think I am going to wait on the polarizer and get the two most needed items. No tripod means no photo. And the wireless is needed to get out of that 10 seconds timer. All prices are taken from B&H.
Great we’ll see then and it’s Thursday that means I can not do long exposure shooting this weekend. That’s too bad
Dusk Photo Session
October 14, 2007 by Rudy Setiawan · Leave a Comment
I think it was on Tuesday, that I woke up quite early in the morning and as I walked out to my living room, I saw the sky was reddish orange. Wow it was amazingly beautiful, so I took out my tripod and camera and started taking pictures of the horizon. Then I tried to convert the RAW to JPEG format, I saw so much noise in the pictures. I was using ISO 100, Av mode and shooting timer. What could I do wrong, then in the program, I had to lessen the sharpness to 0 (it was 3) and it actually softened up the rough edges where the bright light (the sun) shine.
The below picture is actually the result of it. Anyone has some ideas about this noise? Thanks!
