AFA 2011

Check out the reflection in the car

Grand Canyon

The view is beautiful

especially when you climb to higher ground

tree

reflection of sun

Cool

This has a rather cool effect

I caught him just as he released the ball

The lighting was quite bad and i used a high shutter speed so the image is quite dark and grainy

but the photo is still quite nice

the reflection on the floor adds to the effect

The wonders of photoshop

These are from my earlier photos

I had to use manual focus for this shot because the autofocus kept focusing on all the branches

However, i managed to snap this shot before the bird flew away

The mother hamster playing with cotton wool

This is one of my 5 hamsters

She goes nuts anytime she lays her paws on cotton wool

Opening Sky

This was a nice picture of a sky

It seems to show it cracking open to reveal the light

The Tennis Demon

This was an interesting Photo

It was about to rain so the sky was quite dark but not the entire sky

This seems like one of those epic scenes when the sky darkens following the entrance of a powerful character

His walking towards the camera makes it seem like his entrance even more powerful

If there had been lighting in the background the shot would have been perfect

Ripple

I was quite lucky to get this photo

I saw some kids around the side so I guessed they would touch the water

i took the photo before the ripples could spread across

plus, the reflection in the water is quite clear since the water was very still before it was disturbed

Rock

The sun was hidden behind some clouds so i thought the lighting would give a nice effect on the rocks and grass

It came out better than i expected

Sentosa

It was quite hard to get this shot

I had to lie down to position the rocks correctly

Whats more, i could barely see out because of the position i was in

had to use the Live View option to frame  the picture properly

But, the effect was rather nice

The sky was really nice at that time and the sun was hidden behind so the picture wasn't over exposed
