Sartorialista 10:58 AM

Decided to try my hand at some more fancy photography.. including macro, infinity and shots with different ISO speeds. Because I am training myself to take on the DSLR!!! Wahaha.

What better subject for fashion photography than myself to brush up photography skills and improve my feel for fashion right (so bhb kns.. haha dont laugh!)

Satin-feel collar and cotton sweater..

Searching for the right angle..

Green sweater with black turtleneck for the cold days.... wait did I do this combi before?

A more casual look.. for the less frigid days.. in my gap peacoat and white scarf.

Practising photography means not just taking one subject, but multiple. So freshly popped corn became my 2nd subject... haha healthy (reduced fat) snack!

Attempting a more artsy shot..

Mix and match: Banana republic sweater (gotten at a discount, a total steal! Very proud of myself) and Cotton-on floral shirt.
I'm becoming a fan of casual/formal mix-and-matching. Gives unexpectedly good results sometimes! Of course, experiment with a few different combination before going out.. to give yourself a feel of how things look.


Saturday Jan 30th 2010: snowy day! Flurries were forecasted with 1-2 inches accumulation expected, but the storm turned North unexpectedly resulting in a full day of snow and 4-7 inches accumulation, and weather alert upgraded from winter weather advisory to warning.
Infinity+high ISO shot to capture falling flakes..

Winter wonderland early in the day..

Cars starting to get snow capped..

Flakes falling from the sky..

View from my couch..

Holly the reindeer on my couch.. watching snow fall (she's another subject of mine!)

"Ahh the bliss.."

Snowy sidewalk and bushes..

The aftermath, when its not so fun anymore.. the great digout!

Before..

Starting the digout..

Sweeping snow off the windows (in case you can't see clearly, the reflection shows me in my eskimo cap because it was -8 degrees C outside... ooh frozen fingers.. forgot my gloves at home FML)

Halfway done! Good job KS!

Almost cleared of the snowy mess...

Yay all completed!

That was not so bad after all.. the snow was really fluffy and none of it has really melted yet and stuck fast to the glass, so it was not that hard a job. Tougher to stomach was the cold hehe..

Okay! Till next time!

Welcome to the blog of 武林盟主. In this space of hers, she is entitled to and responsible for her own thoughts and comments. You are welcome to give your few cents worth in the tag, but do not force her to accept your thoughts should they differ from hers. If everyone thinks the same way we would all be robots no?

武林盟主 is this pugilistic genius everyone calls a deranged lunatic. But that's cos they haven't witnessed her great powers yet! She can be regarded as the best product coming from the Pugislistic World in the past 100 years, and 武當, 少林 and 峨嵋 are scrambling to get her to be their 掌门人. She likes think of herself as the next 杨过, 郭靖 or 张无忌.

武林盟主 also has this slightly straight slightly crooked sexuality. At times when the Estrogen triumphs, she preys on hot guys. Other times when the Testosterone levels peak, she preys on hot girls. Some say that is a side effect of the 葵花宝典. Her doctors are still working to establish that.

Many say she's invincible. But that's not true. Bring a DURIAN in front of her, and she will ditch her sword and raise the white flag. She's still desperately trying to master the 闭气功 so she can overcome this weakness.

She now resides in a tiny little room in a tiny little building in a tiny little university/hospital in the tiny little city of Baltimore, studying her tiny little life away in the hopes of getting some Permanent Head Damage. If you feel you can communicate at her level and wish for her to be your soulmate, feel free send her a note of pugilistic admiration and alliance!
