May’n VIP Concert Tickets

May’n VIP pass for AFA08 is out. Diamond pass for $118 and VIP pass for $68 Link here

The first thing would come to my mind, all the traffic on that 1 Nov purchasing day will make the site go bust just like F1 ticket sales period. Would be getting the $68 though, I aren’t digging the autograph and hand shaking session.

"Strictly no photography, audio and video recording is allowed during May’n Live Performance." Ouch but expected.

My “Workshop”

Time to expose my "workshop" Pretty shocking huh? Its a mess aren’t it. The space on top of the windows is which I recently conjured out to shift some of my PVC out of the cupboard. Second picture is the table where is just a cupboard door prop against a armchair. Talk about lack of space. Seeing the compressor on the floor realise its time for a power cycle and oil check. I still using a CRT >: |

May’n Live at Anime Festival Asia 2008


AFA08

A bit slow but it is the first time any Japanese singer especially for anime event to come to Singapore. I be so waiting for the day to come ^^ .

Taken from the offical site:
"Japan’s latest pop diva sensation May’n will be performing ‘Live’ at Anime Festival Asia 2008. Performing her latest music from the hit Macross Frontier anime series, catch her at AFA08 for her first ever music performance outside of Japan.

May’n is one of Japan’s latest pop diva sensations.  Currently 18 years old, her wish is to sing songs that can touch everyone’s lives.  Singing since the tender age of 3, May’n topped the “Horipio – Talent Scout Caravan – Love Music – Audition” when she was 13 and came up tops from a total of 35,000 contestants. 

In 2008, she took on the role of Sheryl Nome as the diva character in the highly successful hit animation series “Macross Frontier”.  In early May 2008, her CD single release “Diamond Crevasse” topped the Japanese Oricon charts at No.3 – Her CD launch event was so successful that it became the most well attended in the history of the Japanese music scene.  Her next CD single released in August 20th 2008 “Lion”, again topped the Japanese Oricon charts at No.3 – achieving 2 consecutive single releases at No.3.

Possessing a natural talent for live shows, coupled with her unique and dynamic vocal abilities, May’n takes pride in engaging her audiences profoundly during performances.

Get ready for her stunning performance at Anime Festival Asia 2008!"

Photographic Upgrade Canon Eos 50D


ESO 50D, 85mm f1.8 attached, 580Ex II, 24-105L f4

After some struggle and a couple of bucks drop. I changed my body to the EOS 50D. Coming from the 450D, the experience from using 50D is hell lot of differences. First thing is the size of that beast with grip on. The grip is a lifeline, something I can’t do without. The body shell is rugged, suitable for chiong sua!!! The viewfinder is a godsend, big and bright. I can’t see crap on the 450D and hell it is small. The new LCD toasted me, it like a HDTV on the camera. Best of all is the AF microadjustment. I realigned both my lens, especially the 85mm with a -11 adjustment, it become pin sharp.

Although I pin the choice against the EOS 5D but the fps and the MA win me over to 50D instead. Let hope when is the next full frame other than the 5D MkII is coming out before this year end.

Another Toy Photoshoot

Yea. Another toy photoshoot. This type at Fort Canning. The trek up there is a bitch and it almost rain halfway. After that we decided to move indoor.
