a self-proclaimed graffiti artist finishing some scribblings on the illuminated wall in the esplanade library…

the foyer at the esplanade always has art works on display and they are routinely changed… here are the ones that were exhibited during my visit there three weeks ago…

shooting with a half-broken second-hand digicam doesn't mean i have to make do with mediocre pics… the power of photoshop and photomatix is demonstrated below… well of course this is a far cry from the real deal by pros… the first transformation is a regular highlight and shadows tweaking… but the second involves hdr and tone mapping… hence the exaggerated striking colours… which is what hdr is all about… it ain't too bad i hope :)

hdr pictures are so breathtakingly beautiful and vivid… they never cease to 'wow' me… so much so… i can't wait to get a dslr and shoot some of my own… trey ratcliff has an amazing collection of photos… a number of them taken in kl and around malaysia… they're absolutely amazing…

speaking of pics… i hardly took any over the past week… but i did meet a whole lot of friends though… most of the time we had our hands full with poker cards… well anyway… somewhere here in the middle of the post is one of me driving my bro's car around… :)

the weather has not been co-operative with people like us who are looking forward to do some jogging in the evenings… in preparation for the mountain ascent of course… let's hope for clearer skies in the weeks to come…

this is what transpired during one of my msn conversations this evening… she does have a flair for sketching… doesn't she? well… it's not all that hard to guess what the initials stand for… especially with the informative… and perhaps cute… illustration…

I have long been fascinated with sci-fi/digital/fantasy art… there’s a whole lot of websites out there dedicated to it… haven’t met others with such similar interests though… besides my bro… who actually introduced me to this vividly imaginative world of surreallism… i guess i just love being lost in the haze of a dream… in the words of Dream Theater (again!)… oh well… in case this seems to interest anyone of you… have a look into the other dimension… just remember to return…

Well… i guess there’s much more out there… but i doubt many of u would be interested… btw… my background was “ripped off” from DigitalBlasphemy… with the exception of the headline at the bottom… which i drew in Paint… ;)
Have fun drifting off into space…
