Kapit & Sibu Short Trip

***Alright, so after a long research and head scratching session for the first DSLR I am going to get, I settled on a Nikon D90. Hence, the Nikon D90 world managed to claim yet another user to their collections on users. Ahem. If you must know, before this I shoot on a Canon Powershot A70 and Canon Ixus. Canon fanboys/girls who are shouting blasphemy right now, you have to admit it that at the current price range and the models available, Nikon D90 kick arse. -End- ***


Yours Truly went on a short trip to Sibu & Kapit a while back with his new toy, anxious to produce some masterpieces but alas that was not meant to be due to the shortage at the skill department. Ahem. Needs lots of experimenting, kinda overwhelming by the diverse stuffs that can be played with. Before this used a compact point and shoot camera mah. Just point and snap.

Now, it is like figuring out which controls/settings to put under different environment then make few shots then adjust to the desired settings then make the shots then have to find time to filter and post process it. Just a general overview lah.

Anyway, some photos of the trip aye?

Cat's Eye Fruit aka Buah Mata Kucing

Image
Cat's Eye Fruit is actually a longan fruit variety and locally is known as Buah Mata Kucing which is literally translated as Cat's Eye Fruit. It is interesting to note that the longan name is actually derived from the chinese pronounciation which means dragon eye. However, since locally it is known as Cat's Eye aka Mata Kucing , I will still refer it as Cat's Eye Fruit aka Buah Mata Kucing aka Longan. Cat's Eye Fruit/Longan Buah Mata Kucing Please note that the Cat's Eye Fruit aka Buah Mata Kucing is not lychee fruit. Lychee fruit can be considered the big brother of Cat's Eye Fruit aka Buah Mata Kucing aka Longan. Now, yours truly shall show you the ancient secret method of opening the rind to get to the flesh. There are basically three methods you can use to open up the rind and get the flesh. First method is the macho way to show your manliness by using just three fingers to open the rind and get the flesh. First of all, pick up a cat's eye fruit
