Oliver Chong > 2008.10.16 - Day ? : This clover (?) sprouted at the base of one of our bonsai. Seeing the little hairs on the leaves is a little bit creepy. I was playing with hand held flash positioning while using the 100mm macro. I think I'm going to end up building a rig to position the flash at the front of the lens w/ a larger diffuser.
Oliver Chong > 2008.10.12 - Day ? : The other aspect of fall is bringing in the plants that can't survive the New England winter. Our bonsai definitely fall in to that category. They actually moved inside last weekend, but it took me until today to set up a proper growing situation. 4000 lumens at 3500K using 60 watts from the two CFL work lights will hopefully keep them happy until the spring. This is certainly more light than they were receiving through the window and I question if it is more than they were getting on the deck...
Oliver Chong > 2008.08.23 - Day ? : We stopped by Bonsai West today to get some fertilizer and walk around the greenhouses. This I believe is an old Ficus and my favorite picture of the day. I was able to easily get positioned for a nicer perspective. I've recently been considering picking up a G9 (or G10 if it comes out soon) as I find our current P&S to be inadequate. I also would like to be able to cheaply take a camera underwater and a G9/10 would make that possible. There are rumors that the G10 will shoot HD video and/or use a CMOS sensor. Of course there are what appear to be accidentally leaked specs of the 50D on the Canon CN site... tempting.

Oliver Chong > 2008.07.12 - Day 91 : Irene and I took an introductory course on Bonsai this afternoon at Bonsai West. The course is titled, "Yours, Mine, and Ours" and is intended to be taken as a pair. You each work with your own tree first and then sculpt one together. The course was great. We both had a fun time and really learned quite a lot. If you are ever in the Littleton, MA area I strongly recommend stopping by the Bonsai West nursery. This is a picture of the tree we created together. It is a cherry tree that is roughly 8" tall. I obviously went with an artistic look, but pictures of the three trees can be found here.
