thoughts escaping my mind
It’s about time I took photos of these guys in my tank. It’s easy to always find the Crystal Red Shrimps (CRS) and Red Cherry Shrimps (RCS) and in your excitement forget these chaps – the Green Neon Shrimp I mentioned in my previous post.
Be warned. The rest of the post is image intensive. Continue reading “Green Neon Shrimp”
I was mousing around Rob Galbraith’s site when I saw his link to MediaStorm.
It’s a website with essays and commentaries on the world today, using multimedia. ie you need Flash installed.
I particularly like Chernobyl Legacy by Paul Fusco. It reminded me of why I should be very afraid when countries start talking about nuclear testing.
Everyone says it will never happen. Well yeah, we always say that, it will never happen, but everything we make as human beings breaks.
Everything breaks. Everything wears out.
As you can see from On the Bus and Signs, I’ve been doing some spring cleaning of images taken with my mobile phone.
The quality of the pictures aren’t great. I’ve also had to do colour correction and sharpening, removal of noise and so on.
Most of my life, I pretty much go on my own way. But in these brief moments, something struck me about the day, or the light that I made the effort to whip our my mobile phone.
So I think they’re worth something.
Here are some random images I hope you enjoy. Continue reading “Random sights”
These were taken in and around various places of signs and notices. Again these were taken with the low resolution camera on my mobile phone.
Don’t crash into the Hot-Kid.
Here are some photos I’ve taken with my mobile phone while using the public bus system in Singapore. They were taken while I was riding in the bus, or while I was waiting at bus stops for the bus.
Taufik, Singapore’s first Singapore Idol, endorses a smoke-free Singapore. But how about a sweat-free Singapore?
I was clearing up my mobile phone of images I’ve taken on a whim and haven’t deleted, when I found some of Rusty on my walks to Upper Pierce Reservoir. Continue reading “Rusty”
Didn’t I say I had itchy fingers?
It’s barely past a week and I’ve already messed around with my new planted tank.
I’ve added:
I’m beginning to think, due to the colouration and markings of the boraras I got, that the fish is not actually the mosquito boraras (Boraras Brigittae) but Boraras Urophthalmoides.
My fish have the signature exclammation point marking of the Boraras Urophtalmoides. That is, a dark/black lateral stripe across the body and ending with a black dot on the peduncle (the junction of the end of the fish body and beginning of the tail). See it?

After admiring these shrimp in the shop for several months, I decided to plonk down $3 to get one.
I’ve always struggled with flash photography.
Too harsh, too strong. Bright faces, dark legs. You know how it is. Continue reading “Progressive Flash Light Course”
