Where the light is

I'm enjoying right now my sudden 3 week vacation before I move over to my new job. I have all the time to do the things I enjoyed (which includes photography but no outdoor photography for now as its really hot to do outdoor activities) like working out in the Gym which I can do now 5 times a week 3 days of Weight training and 2 days of Cardio and also swim a few laps on the pool. I can also now fix, update and tweak my itunes library. 

My latest addition to my itunes library is John Mayer's "Where the light is (John Mayer live in Los Angeles)" I already have 3 of his albums in my itunes library and most of the songs in where the light is but the live versions of these songs made me get this CD.

Farewell

The photo above was one of my last shot of the Index building before leaving the project. It was shot using Lomo LCA loaded with Fuji Velvia and cross processed.

Well I can say its official I'm no longer part of this project. I have my last working day the other day it was 2 weeks earlier than schedule as what should be in first week of August due to some misunderstanding which I rather not go in details. Well as I can say that I substantially completed my task as early this year as most of my final task on the project was to help others in their areas of work.

Its been a good and challenging 2 years of working in this project no regrets and I have learned new things that will help me as I moved on to the next challenge I will face elsewhere in the region (more on that on my later post).

To the people I've worked with and become my good friend Farewell to all of you for now till we meet again.

Yo whats up!!!

This is Joyce think I already posted her photo before, she is my perennial model. I always used her for my shoots whenever I have an entry for a competition, doing some lighting studies or just getting bored at the office.
You may be wondering about the title of this entry its our greeting whenever we see each other every morning at the office.

One of the things I do not like about Dubai beside the humid summer weather is its Public Transportation. There are few buses plying around the city and you have to wait for hours to get one thats traveling the route of your destination chances if its a rush hour you will find your buses fill to the rafter so they will not take new passenger so you have to wait again. They don't have subway or Metro train yet at least for another year until the construction of its first Metro are completed. The best but expensive way to go around the city by public transport is the Taxi.

Aside from that there are a traditional mode of public transport here called the Abra (shown in photo above)its a small boat that ferry passengers from Bur Dubai to Deira across Dubai Creek. Got a chance to ride one after 2 years of stay courtesy of one weekend afternoon walk.

Twin Brother

As I wrote in my previous entry that the traveler is with me right now and still with me for almost a week. I'm just waiting for the advise on when will I send it next so to the other participant who is yet get to hold of the traveler just stay put our baby is just fine sitting side by side with his twin brother.
To all of you who don't know I happened to own a camera same as the traveler a lomo action sampler so took a photo of the twin sitting side by side.

The Traveler reaches Dubai

After 2 years of waiting I finally the traveler has finally reach me. I'm planning to get the process as quick as possible be shooting this afternoon if the weather is good as you know at this time of the year in Dubai its sandstorm everyday and its so humidly hot not a good time for outdoor photography. Anyway I'll try to wrap it on Saturday the latest so I can send it to the next participant.


The crappy photo of the traveler is from my Treo since there are no digital camera handy when I receive it.
