Finally have a chance to sync/back up my iphone, it’s taking hours ^^; meanwhile, copied some pix into computer :P

Buy so much spam? Well, it was on sale ^^; Almost half price of what we normally see, so we stocked up ^^;

Canon Lens EF 50mm 1:1.4

Some relatives from out of town came and went and Husband got a suddenly aquired lens, I tried it out (with husband’s T1i) quickly one evening and I love it! :)

As you know we have 2 active young furkids, Ginko and Yoshi, they become the instant subjects. (Above is Ginko)

A few days in – random stuff

Wow, I just realised I haven’t posted here for a while! O_O Even my husband was posting a lot more than I am these days ^^; And also looks like the Tokyo loot pix have to wait a bit ^^; I already have a backlog of photos of random stuff which I will post now ^^;

I’ll start this post with some photo dump of our furkids on a warm afternoon in our living room. The heat reminds me of Asia, only slightly dryer — not as muggy?

Richmond Olympic Oval

Chanced upon the near completed Richmond Olympic Oval in the middle of some errands not long ago, but didn’t have time to look thru pix until now. ^^; While I personally think it’s not as cool as the life size Odaiba Gundam — by the way loads more pix/links at dannychoo.com, husband and I were quite impressed by our quick visit with how  it looks so far ^^!

Lumix LX3

Our current 3 year old point and shoot digital camera is not meeting our expectations these days, especially during low light condition. So me and hubsband decided to give LX3 a try — thanks to seeing some recommendations in the comments on dannychoo.com and Danny’s own photos. The nice thing about some (not all) of the stores in Canada is that we at least have a 14 day return policy, so we can actually try the camera for that period of time to see if it’s a keeper :)

Yoshi under the chair (click for larger image)

So far we’re still trying to get used to the different features and functions, so not all photos are picture perfect. So if you’re curious to see what pictures we took with the LX3, this entry is for you :) Be warned tho, there’s food pix ahead!

Cat girl art, spring and cats…

Nyah? Haven’t posted new art for a while I know (Nyoron~ ^^;) need.. moar… arms…. ^^;;;
I’ll update this into my gallery later on ^^; I did a couple more sketches but they were rather rough and also after an update recently my computer is refusing to work with the scanner (grrr!) I only managed to get this cat girl drawing into the computer by taking a picture then adjusting in photoshop, then open in Sai to clean up + CG ^^ Hope you like!

This image was inspired by Big box and Maru ^o^! I recommend you watch until the very end of the video LOL I dunno how the person who took the video managed not to laugh out loud XD!

Spring and things

Sorry, just realised my last post was last Saturday ^^; Just been a little too busy and quite overwhelmed, recently found out that my team got into finals for blythe beauty contest 2009, and many more things to do/plan from there still! ^^;/

This year is my 5th spring in Canada :D I dare say it is one of my favourite seasons, despite the hayfever and sinus headaches it causes husband and I ^^;

Mio Akiyama fan art completed

Took a bit longer to finish this one up as I decided to add some detail to the instrument she was holding (ahem). Her bass guitar was drawn in Flash, exported into PNG file then paste into photoshop and lightly edited.  Previous line art progress here.
