Oliver Chong > 2009.1.13 - Day ? : The view from our new apartment is far superior to what the old one offered. Moon and sun rises, Boston in the distance, and curvy roads. This is a portion of the entrance to the apartment complex. I stood on a foot stole for over a half hour capturing the cars as they passed. This photo ended up being my favorite. I really like the variance in color and the sweeping separation of the car lights. This shot actually looks excellent in black and white as well, but the colors won me over in the end. Listening to Bon Iver kept me going.
Oliver Chong > 2008.04.27 - Day 15 : My beautiful girlfriend was kind enough to pose for today's picture. It's a very overcast Sunday in MA, but it makes for nice natural lighting.
Oliver Chong > 2008.04.15 - Day 3 : I am a huge fan of the light box and the look it produces. I actually started off with a different idea using strawberries and blueberries, but it will have to wait for another day after some more thought. I guess the real question here is, who's following who?
Oliver Chong > 2008.05.09 - Day 27 : My parents are in town for my birthday and to organize the garden at their house here in MA. I took the day off work to help them with the yard work and while I was there, to take some pictures. This picture is from the front of the house at the cherry tree. It is quite an old tree with a lot of character and this year completely full of blossoms. One of my tasks for the day was to prune the lower shoots and remove the dead branches. I will post other pictures of the yard later in the weekend once I have chosen my favorites.
Oliver Chong > 2008.06.19 - Day 68 : Irene started a new job on Monday so i got her some flowers. They provided for another nice organic shot. Jeremy always says I should use the story telling apertures more so here's another. I normally won't go above f/11 due to diffraction, but I tried a range of them. I couldn't discern any quality loss in the shot so I went with f/22. Another back fill. A bit of an artistic photo... of art.
Oliver Chong > 2008.06.10 - Day 59 : Inspired by Ratatat, a band that was featured on a recent All Songs Considered episode. All Songs Considered is a program that airs on NPR and has recently become one of my favorites. Ratatat is a duo from New York that creates electro-rock. Take a listen to a track from their upcoming CD, Lp3. --- I am going to make changes to my self imposed rules. Several times now I have taken photos, but been too busy (or away from a computer) and as a result, not uploaded a daily photo. I am now going to allow myself to back fill as long as the day being filled in, is the same day the photo was taken. It was in hindsight silly to impose an upload rule on myself. So, look for missing days to be filled soon.
Oliver Chong > 2008.05.16 - Day 34 : Irene and I went out to the pet store this evening to buy food for Charlie our pet cockatiel. While looking at the toys, Irene noticed this soft tubular pouch. Anyways, we ended up buying it and Charlie immediately took to it. He has no problem hiding inside of it singing to himself.
Oliver Chong > 2009.4.16 Well a year has past. I was practicing with the 100mm macro at 1:1 using the macro ring light. This is Irene's favorite from tonight and high up on my list as well. I seem to have a love of lines at the moment.
Oliver Chong > 2009.4.7 - Day 360 : Took a break from processing photos from our trip to Washington, DC to try out the Canon Macro Ring Light MR-14EX that Irene bought me as an early birthday gift. Thanks sweetie! So much to learn with regards to flash... This was taken with the Canon 100mm macro set to somewhere around 1:1.5 - 1:2. The MR-14EX is set ratio 4:1. It's great that you can spin the flash so that the bulbs are at any arbitrary angle.
2008.05.09 - Day 27 :

My parents are in town for my birthday and to organize the garden at their house here in MA. I took the day off work to help them with the yard work and while I was there, to take some pictures.

This picture is from the front of the house at the cherry tree. It is quite an old tree with a lot of character and this year completely full of blossoms. One of my tasks for the day was to prune the lower shoots and remove the dead branches.

I will post other pictures of the yard later in the weekend once I have chosen my favorites.
