Some candid I took when I was on the boat. Hazy lake.

During my travel, only stick to 35mm. Can't do much landscape with it, now I miss my sold Sigma 18-200mm.

Hope I can get some CNY cultural street photos this year.

Neat!

Some improvement though, you can level up the view by using level option in crop settings mode in Lightroom.

My first try for starry sky photography. Didn't go for focus stacking yet, I think the masking stuff would be too much for me. Now I understand how it works, you don't need to wait for this kind of starry sky for this, enough with some stars visible to your naked eyes. The small stars can be captured with long shutter later.

Previously, I thought you need to bump up your ISO crazily for this (because high ISO in Nikon have starry night picture in the selection).

Too bad! It's CNY summore, so sorry bro.
Might want to keep an eye out on websites selling 2nd hand camera equipments.

If you want to use for pro purpose, definitely Canon for video, much better control, a lot better actually eg live view aperture control and exposure simulation.

Same spot just for fun.

Whoaa! Nice!

Sold my Tamron 10-24 for landscape ( so sad ) since I rarely managed to go far for landscape nowadays. But now I bought 2nd hand Tamron 90mm Macro (older version) and waiting for delivery.

Do you think this is a good decision? I mean the lens, is it good? I think I cannot spend too much money even on the new VC tamron macro.

I think I'll use it often, all of my macro actually done in my home's backyard. Really flexible
Just wondering if I should actually wait for Tamron VC edition. But meh... nevermind, I'll sell it if I don't like it like before.

Kawaiii!!!!
You have been hunting for cats now?


Testing reverse lens macro. Picture on the left is 35mm+Raynox, the right 35mm reversed handheld. Quite hard.

The same kind of fly when my first try on macro

Noted. Ya, DOF is crazy in macro. Should get backward and use narrower aperture then. Also this one,

Easier now since I don't have to be so near with the insect.

Ya purposely, I made three preset for this, the cold, warm and neutral. The cold one like my the first cat picture which I posted before.

Tamron 90mm AF is whacky crazy. In the end I switched to MF anyway.
