Ubud random shots

For the sake of updating my travelog in Bali before my coming trip in less than a month. This was in Ubud.












If you notice, you will see the items for prayer everywhere, on the ground, or even on the car... This is Bali. =)

Valentine gift part II -- 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC lens

My Valentine pressie part II. He knows my style, I love taking scenery photos, thus I need a wide angle lens. Last week stock was out for the wide angle lens, so he ordered one. Finally I got it this morning!




So baby, here are the trial snapshots after I picked up the lens from Alex just now. At least you can see it from Ipoh..hehe. It's quite heavy (better grip with the weight) and I bet you love holding it (guys usually prefer more bulky DSLR). Was quite shaky in the car along the coastal highway back home but the photos were great!












Just in time for our Bali scenery shots next month. And I'm pretty sure my Hong Kong skyline pictures will be great in April too!

Ming Court Hong Kong Tim Sum, Ipoh

**Update: Since some people asked for the address for this dim sum house, so let me update here in case you need GPRS to go there. 36 Jalan Leong Sin Nam, Ipoh, 30300.**

In my previous post about dim sum in Ipoh, I said I will share about Ming Court dim sum. So here they are! My favorite dim sum. =) It's located just opposite Foh San Dim Sum.






Although the place is not as decent as Foh San, but I always think the dim sum served here is more delicious.




Plenty of dim sum to choose once you're seated.




See how fast the waitresses will come and serve you.




Ha-kuen (fried prawn roll).




Lo-mai-kai (glutinous chicken).




Yu-tan (fish ball).




Pai-kut (ribs).

Kampachi Japanese Buffet

Well, it's the trial shots with my new Canon EOS 500D. We went to Kampachi for dinner and looked like the effect was quite nice (we had never learned photography).












Back to the food. Awesome. Quality ensured fresh. =) That's why I ate quite a lot of fresh oysters.
























Right... I'm now my baby's model for DSLR shooting practice.








Sake bottles.
