It is now 11.08 p.m. I should've been asleep eight minutes ago. Will make this a quick one.

April 21, 2008. We should've been free at 4.00 p.m. But all first year Science and Engineering students will remember the circumstances which had us detained till 5.10 p.m.


At least I arrived in time to catch the waning moments of the festivities at KLCC.


Mich was late too, but her friend Shaun (who is home-schooled) managed to see it off at Dataran Merdeka. We had 'dinner' at The Lawn by Marmalade.


We did crazy things in the KLCC playground.


Some people aren't always taller than the Petronas Twin Towers. ;-)


One of those experimental pictures with long exposure and an unusual flash angle.


The wading pool is one of the most exciting features of the KLCC Park in the day (as Amos, Chee Seong, Evans, Jee Haw and Yean Khinn would testify), and it appears to be no different at night.


Finally took the train back to university. I think this shot says a lot about how I felt in general.

On another note, consider the following pictures.


This is how close the Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6 lens will get you. It focuses about as near as 90 cm throughout its zoom range.


This is how close I got last night with a little (non-digital) trickery. It's a technique most photographers (especially those from the days before sophisticated macro lenses were invented) may be familiar with.


Coming soon...
