Random Photos
After many trial and error and help from Ronnie, finally get my Photo of the Day to work on my blog!!! However, I think it's the problem with the program in my photo gallery. The photo doesn't seem to show everytime. Anyway, it's better than nothing. HA!
Anniversary
Today is our anniversary. It's so difficult to find something interesting or special to do nowsaday. We ended up having a nice breakfast in Soho, bowling in Kowloon side, and dinner in the peak.
This is the 2nd time we go to Cafe Deco. First time is only for a drink and dessert. The foods is honestly nothing special. It's not especially good or bad. Just ordinary. The so-called US Angus is not very good. I don't seem to recall that US beef is allowe back in HK. The beef is dry and tasteless. Quite disappointing actually.
During the dinner, there was a foreign couple being seated next to us. They wanted to sit by the window. But they were told that those were being booked. The arrogant man asked the receptionist how much he needs to pay her to get to sit there. It sound really annoying. When I think about it, my foreigner friends would probably speak in the same way. Maybe it's a cultural difference. But who does he think he is? If he can paid some money to sit by the window, I'd pay them double to keep the window seat empty.

My New Toy
Finally, I get back to film photography. I've bought a Canon 30V. I was quite amazed that its features are somehow more and better than my 20D, while the cost is only 1/6.
It's really a big different from digital. The first batch of photos are only to test the machine:

I've asked the output not to adjust anything from my film. You can really tell the difference from digital photography. Using my 20D, I can adjust the exposure anytime I want. If it's not what I want, I can always take another one after looking on the screen. But with film, I must try to do it right all the time. Besides the cost involved, this is also a learning process.
And with my 30V, I've got a vertical grip. The machine looks really sexy. I love it!

Happy Birthday to V
Today is V's birthday. Both of us are taking a day off. After lunch, we went to bought a crab. Crab has become my cats' birthday treat. They love it. But it's a bit salty even to me. I guess eating it once in a while should be ok.
謝安琪 Kay One
After Rachel Kar, I've found another interesting album. 謝安琪 has a very different voice and singing technique. It's nice to see that there are people trying different things in the industry.
