KTM Trekking - Day 1 (16 July 2011)

I went to trek the KTM railway tracks on 16th and 17th July 2011. That was the last weekend public can walk along the railway tracks from Tanjong Pagar to Woodlands.

On the first day, it was cloudy and I walked from Tanjong Pagar till somewhere Queenstown area and left. I saw the fence was cut open and after walking for 2 hours plus, I a bit sien liao so called off the outing that day. Coz knowing that the next day I would be trekking from Bkt Timah onwards. :)

Abandon Indian temple at Tanjong Pagar. Believed that it was relocated elsewhere.

Cameron Foodie & Tualang

Went to Cameron Highlands with my parents, MIL and of course my little devil. Didn't take much photos of the food.








On the way back, we went to a restaurant at Tualang. Dunno how to call it. Some people called it as Tok Alang. But I think I saw it as Pasar Tualang. Enlighten me please. :)

My first landscape shot

Here it is. My first landscape trial at Esplanade outdoor theater with Clubsnap member organized by SunChasers.

Got one important tip from them. The most important thing for landscape shooting is tripod. No matter how expensive your camera is, if you are using lousy tripod; then the photos that you take will be lousy as well. It can be equated with lousy tripod, your camera would be lousy as well.

I learnt that first hand as my tripod is those lousy tripod. Those cheapo tripod freebies when I bought my Nikon D90. The seniors showed me why my tripod is lousy and explained to me what's the difference between a better tripod and those cheapo tripod. Really learn my lesson.

No matter how many shots I tried, my photo IQ is never gonna be nicely focus. It will always has the soft focus issue due to my tripod not sturdy and stable enough. As the shutter released inside the camera, it will create a slight vibration. Though we might think it is nothing, but it is actually everything for landscape photography.

Anyway, I am sharing out one of my shots this evening. Photos that are taken with my cheapo tripod. As most of my friends know, I am not good at Lightroom or any Photoshop. So this photo I present to you are the image directly from my camera. Anyway, I resize it so that it wont so big and easier for me to upload to this blog. :)
