Summer heat

As im typing this, it’s probably 37 - 38 degrees celsius here in my room. It’s hot! Really hot! I’m currently looking for resorts or establishments within Metro Manila that have swimming pools to temporarily escape the heat. Let me know if you know of one, I’m really interested.

Getting there..

I have completed my mini studio setup. 2 Lamps and all that. I am still learning and experimenting with what settings and the best combination of settings.  I am also experimenting with light placement. Here are some pictures:

Geeky Activities

I just went OC and realized that I need to do stuff. Most of my anime collection is just basically download and burn and store in a safe place. I haven’t watched most of the anime that I was able to download ever since.
1. Re catalog my Anime collection
2. Re download highquality encodes of existing anime ( if available)
preferrably Hi Def encodes (h.264 , bluray rips and hd dvd)
3. Download hi def versions of my tv series
4. Catalog MP3 collections and album collections (anime soundtracks included)
5. Clean up PC of unnecessary files and programs.

Good Friday pictures

I had difficulty getting a ride going to office from my place (Marikina.) Instead of getting a cab, I just walked and took pictures of the scenery during Good Friday night.

Sample shots

I have here sample shots of my two basic figures. Akira and Neji. The pictures below illustrate the difference between the whitebalance settings on my n95. The settings for the shots below are:
High ISO
Macro mode
Flash off

As you can see the incandescent setting produces the cool color effect among the four shots taken, this may be due to the fact that I am using fluorescent lamp lights and that it needs that setting to balance it out (I’m not sure though..need to read up on lighting.)

The pictures below have a setting of:
High ISO
Macro mode
Flash off
Contrast (2 notches up)
Sharp

Hopefully, more to come with a different toy and lighting condition.
