Just wanted to share some of the better shots I took when we watched NDP (National Day Parade) Preview (which is one week before the actual day) 08 @ Microsoft's Singapore Office. This show made me dream even more for Nikon D300... D70 is simply too obsolete for me...
This is a shot showing the flag flyby. The background is Marina Bay, with the Esplanade, which locals sometime call the Durian... Lower right is where the audiences are sitting, hence the flag is mirror images, just for the benefit of the overseas readers...
Shot showing the same flyby, but with newest addition to Singapore landscape, the Singapore Flyer. The shot shows the side view of the Flyer.
Fighter jets doing the salute.
The Black Hawks, Singapore's Aerobatic pilots doing their airshow. I couldn't take their show because of where we are, and also because I didn't know how to... My shots came out blurred...
Fireworks!
The finale fireworks was so bright that the shot was overexposed. D70's processing in low light condition was so slow, I missed so many nice fireworks... :(
Do comment on the photos, especially how to improve...
According to this entry, after I upgrade my TytnII to Windows Mobile 6.1, I should be getting more than just threaded message conversation. But I'm not getting any of the fanciful home page features. A site has been going on to hit HTC on the video drivers issue, but HTC doesn't seem to bother... My keyboard is getting more and more unresponsive. Picking up calls is slow... Wrote to HTC, and I get no response after waiting more than a month...
From now on, I will probably active avoid HTC if I can...
