Folks, it is official. I sent in my one entry for the National Geographic Photo Contest 2010. This is my second major photo contest of the year. Crossing fingers xoxo.
I'm listing down my Christmas wish list and on the very top is a Lumix Panasonic LX3. I wonder who's gona send me some love and give me this as a gift? Anyone???
Why I want this?
1. Leica lens means love for pro photographers
2. Food setting for those low-lit restaurant feasts means love for food photographers
3. Light for traveling- need something smaller than a dslr but still will deliver good quality photos- means love for my aching shoulders and back
Why not the upgraded version LX5?
1. The hotshoe is an added bonus IF you want to carry around an external flash. I don't think I'll be doing that and don't want to spend extra $ for another flash since I'm pretty sure my Nikon flash is not compatible with it.
2. I'm not really bothered by the short zoom of LX3.
3. It is more expensive.
My very old Citizen Cake photo made it to DailyCandy today. This was taken with a point-and-shoot Canon S60 when I was dining at the old venue near the Opera house. I actually met Chef Elizabeth Falkner recently when she visited DeLise... too shy to ask a photo with her :P
Dear Readers,
I've entered my second photo contest (non-food related). The theme is red and green. If you like my Anatomy of a Tulip photo, please vote here. Thanks mucho.
Taken in Kuekenhof, Netherlands: The Land of the Tulips
