Framed Pagoda

I captured this from the window of our company's canteen at 2nd floor.
The frame in black is actually the frame of window, it became silhouette due to the exposure setting. The building is a local temple/pagoda just opposite the factory I work.

Focal Length : 70mm
Shutter Speed : 0.002s(1/500)
Exposure : f/4.5
ISO : 160

Picasa2 : Cropping closely to the frame.

Collage Attempt III

Couldn't resist for another one... (with different background)
How do you like it?

Collage Attempt II

2nd try! I like this background best. What do you reckon?

Collage Attempt

Picasa2 : 1st attempt in this "Collage" function. It's FUN. Love it.

Phnom Penh Railway Station

That building is the Phnom Penh Railway station. I found everything in this capture is very oldish. So I decided to "sepia" it... how do you like it?

Yup, the picture was taken on a toktok on-the-move, I turned my back to get this shot.
Yup, the motor-rider here doesn't wear helmet...

Focal Length : 27mm
Shutter Speed : 0.005s (1/200)
Exposure : f/7.1
ISO : 200

Picasa2 : No cropping, but edited with Sepia Tone.

Cropping of "Green..."

This is an amended copy from the "Green...".

I found the bottom right corner of the original was tadly distracting.

Therefore decided to crop it off. So how do you like it?

Would you vote for this one or the original copy?

Focal Length : 70mm

Shutter Speed : 0.005s(1/200)

Exposure : f/8.0

ISO : 125

Picasa2 : Cropping off the bottom right corner.

Core Essence (named by Charlene)

Cropped closely from previous submission "Home Sweet Home".
How do you like it? What caption would you give to this one?
I doubt I would use the same one like before... Still thinking...
Would keep you all posted once I think of one.
Pls feel free to write to me, if you could help...

Updated on 27th March 2007 :
As you may seen, I've changed the caption/title of this one.
Thanks, Charlene. You did me a great favour in naming this one. *winks*

Identical Beige

Saw this guy when I was snapping some flowers. I cropped the original copy a lot(but no touch-up), as this is a tiny fellow, & I only have 18-70mm with me. >__<
Will show the original copy tomorrow.

Touch up :
1. Cropped closely with Picasa2(due to the tricky angle restricted & there're some defects at the surface. So I decided to try a real closely crop to see the results)
2. Sharpen once with Picasa2(To make the subject more appealing.)

A cozy afternoon...

Making a living

Collecting unwanted cans & cartons along the streets, then sell "collection" to be recycled. Though the income is slender, to me, they're greater than those earning huge while abusing our environment...
