No time...

Sigh.... looks like I can't keep up with my own promise of 'A Photo a Week'. A couple of reasons (excuses), so I will just update as and when I have decent photos to put up...

Olympus recently announced the E-420 and the E-520, really improved over my existing E-510, very tempting cameras, but I can't justify the cost to get them as I am not spending time taking photographs.... BUT I think I will splurge on the E-420 and the 25mm lens - looks really small and it will be a good carry-around camera.

Week 15 - The vase!!


Oh come on, you call this photo of the week? Yes, why not? The blue vase on the right is a wedding gift from an ex-colleague/friend in the US. It is so thoughtful of him to get something for the house, and the vase came all the way from Boston to Singapore! And from Singapore, I packed it and brought it to Macau for the house.

See that cleaning detergent on the right? Does that tells you a story? :P

As long as a photo has a meaning to me, it will be the photo of the week :)
