First roll with a Pentax LX with FC-1 viewfinder. The camera is well-built, easy to use, and portable. Unfortunately this unit suffers from the sticky mirror problem as well as mis-aligned mirror, leading to several OOF shots.
Here are some images from the first roll (BW ASA400). Horace doing some repair work on a Rolleicord TLR.
Charlie’s birthday at Dosa Hut.
Watching the Soul, our church softball team. Coach Ian and Adrian prepare to get on the field.
Triumphant return after hitting a home run!
The very loud cheering section (ie Kathy).
Some action shots, a bit tough with the sticky mirror.
Quick briefing in between innings.
Doing a cheer/dance for the other team!
A thunderstorm was overhead so they called the game early. Notice the lightening in the background.
Hanging out and eating lamb curry at Justin’s house.
Mom was in HK so Dad had to cook. He went to Costco and stocked up on a lot of prepared food.
Sunday worship.
Snapshots from church. Celebrating Pastor Eric’s birthday. :)
As some of you might know, I am currently traveling in China till early July. This is a postdated entry, hopefully I can write about my experience in China next week. Till then!
This past weekend I was at Georgian College with my church, Don Mills Baptist Church. Even though I was piled up with school work I was a good weekend to reflect, learn and spend time with friends!
We all met at church and rented a school bus to take us to Barrie. This was Eric trying to use his body to stop the bags from toppling over!
The main worship/lounge area. My character of the weekend was WONDER WOMAN (thanks Horace)!
Volleyball tournament, with random bonuses and handicaps…the pirates kept losing because they had absolutely no depth perception.
The last activity was to design an egg drop. We could use the points we earned from the previous group games to purchase the building material. Some really cool design and some cool splashes.
Thank you for the planning committee for making it happen and ensure things ran smoothly.
Pointing to the happy faces on his shoulder, “Ian are you trying to be copy Tim?”
Kathy and Shirley, next year we will get you back….with interest.
Haven’t updated in a while and a lot has happened recently. Here are the summary of some of the events that took place.
Christmas Dinner organized by Kathy, Jennie, and Wendy! It was a lot of fun and in the end my brother and I used the children as weapons against innocent bystanders.
Visited my cousin, their children are harlirous! The little one (far right) runs around nonstop and has powerful destructive powers.
Visited Guelph on Christmas day and we walked all over town. The light show at night was very nice.
We got three FREE platium Raptor’s tickets so Charlie, Rishi and I went together. We also had access to a platium box, free food, drinks, ice-cream! The game was very intense and the crowd responded to every action made by the players with “oooo”, “ahhh”. We concluded it was a very good deal!
Only a few days left until work starts! Boston here I come. Happy New Year to everyone!
So last year Christmas, our church proposed that instead of receiving presents, we ask for gifts in the form of donation to World Vision to provide chicken, medicine, and trees to third world countries. This year we are striving to raise money for a local organization Urban Promise which tailor their programs for at-risk youths and train them to be leaders in their community. Horace, Ian and I took some pictures in categories such as: clothing, snacks, arts & crafts, recreation, and school supplies. If you are interested in contributing. :)
We finally finished our robot and completed the competition this past week. Even though it was a lot of work and pulling out hair it was very satisfying to see the end results.
This little guy packed in encoders, microphone, line following sensors, and magnet detection.
