1st Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2009 - Photoshots Part 1
Salam and hello all. As I have promised before in my previous entry, I’ll share some pictures and photos that I have taken from the first Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta that was held on 19-22 March 2009. So, I don’t want to elaborate more, here are the pictures and photos that I think are the best from hundreds of pictures that I have taken on 21 March 2009. Please be patient while waiting the pictures to be loaded completely, I know even if you use broadband connection, you still have to wait. That’s what Malaysia’s broadband is. So, please wait ya! 
I’ve divided the pictures into 2 parts and this is the part 1 from 2 parts. In this part, I’ll share the pictures of the hot air balloon, which is the main subject in this event. So, enjoy the pictures below and proceed your reading. All these pictures have been taken in the morning around 8 am till 9 am on 21 March 2009. So, you’ll notice the sky in my pictures was not as blue as it should be and the cloud was not really attractive enough. Well, it was a morning sky. Anyway, enjoy the pictures!
Photos/Pictures of Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta : 19-22 March 2009
Salam and hello all. How your life? I hope you’re always in good condition. Straight to the point, this entry is dedicated to an event that will ends today (22 March 2009), Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon 2009. Some of you might already know about this event and for your information, this is the first time for this event been held in Malaysia. Anyway, those who are looking for photos or pictures for Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2009 from this blog, I hope you can wait for my next entry. I’ll post more photos from this event soon. So, stay tuned ya!
I went to this event yesterday, early in the morning. Not so early actually, it was about 7.30 am when I went out from my house with my housemate. Actually we had planned to get there as early as 7.30 am, but because we have overslept, we reached there about 8.00 am, with hope that we still can get the ticket to ride on the hot air balloon. But it was disappointed when we reached there, it was totally sold out and tickets for today (22 March 2009) are only for charity. We have heard that, 70 limited tickets for yesterday were sold out in 10 minutes! Which sound impossible for us to get the ticket because the ticket counter started selling the ticket at 7.00 am, which at that time we were still in dream mode. 
Anyway, we managed to get few shots from the event and we were quite satisfied with the shots that we got yesterday. In the evening, we tried to get another few shots from another spot but little disappointed because the hot air balloon were not coming toward the spot we expect the hot air balloon to come! Wasted about 2 hours waiting the hot air balloon to come, we changed our spot one more time and get some few random shots around Putrajaya.
Anyway, that’s all for now. I’ll post more photos or pictures for Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2009 as soon as possible in my next entry. Since my final exam week start this Monday, so I’ve to concentrate on it first. Hope you don’t mind. Anyway, you can subscribe to my RSS so that you’ll be notified when I have posted the pictures for the event later.
Till next entry, bye!
p/s: Is there anyone of you go to this event? What do you think about this event?
Disappointed with Geng the Movie “Pengembaraan Kini Bermula!”
Salam and hello all. Don’t get me wrong, the title of this post is nothing. Haha, I don’t mean to condemn or what so ever but actually I want to show how impress I am with this movie. Yesterday, I took my cousin at INTI University College, Nilai to Alamanda since we had planned last week to watch this local 3D animation movie, Geng the Movie. We arrived at Alamanda about 7.30pm and I thought there’s still any seat available for both of us, but a bit disappointed to see from the LCD tv at the Alamanda GSC Cinema that Geng the Movie currently selling fast! Ah..maybe we’re late. At the time to purchase the ticket, there’s none of free seat available for that movie so, we changed our plan to Ong Bak 2. The movie started at 9.10pm and to kill the time we went for dinner.
About 9pm, when we want to enter the cinema for the Ong Bak 2, I saw many people lined up from the ticket counter and what made me more impressed was what currently showing on the LCD tv at the ticket counter. Again, the ticket for Geng the Movie for 10pm and 12.10am session currently selling fast! Again! What the heck!? What I was thinking that time is, I must watch this movie! Yes! I must watch.
Quite impressed with what I saw yesterday, I think Les Copaque have done a really well-done job on promoting this 3D animation movie. Even I didn’t watch the movie yet, but from what other bloggers who already watched it’s premium screening month ago have said about this movie, I think this movie can go far and it’ll not impossible it’ll break the box office in less than a week. Maybe, I need to do reservation for the ticket since it looks like this movie quite “HOT” now.
p/s: I have two tests next week and, most probably I can’t spend my time for cinema for next week, maybe today or tomorrow?
Photos/Pictures of Palace of Justice, Putrajaya, Malaysia in HDR
Salam and hello all. Huh, by posted this post doesn’t mean that I already have internet connection at home, actually, I at my cousin’s house at Ara Damansara, Subang and used Maxis Broadband connection to write and post this entry. I yet received any calls from TM for Streamyx matters since last week and have no idea when the connection will be available. Haih, TM please do it fast! 
Before I start, some of you might wondering what is HDR means? Here I quoted some part of text from Wikipedia, for details explanation you can proceed here.
In image processing, computer graphics, and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR) is a set of techniques that allows a greater dynamic range of luminances between light and dark areas of a scene than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDRI is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows.
So, in this entry I want to share some photoshop edited pictures of Palace of Justice (Istana Kehakiman), Putrajaya, Malaysia. Actually, it were not totally photoshop edited, but I also used another important software to produce these HDR photos of Palace of Justice, which is Photomatix Pro 3.1. These HDR photos were generated from single RAW shot exposure then, converted into 3 multiple exposures using Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended and finally merged into HDR photo using Photomatix Pro 3.1. The final stage which is tone mapping and some basic editing was done using Photoshop CS3. So, enjoy the photos and do leave your comments for me to improve my skills. Oh, forget to tell you guys, these HDR photos are my first attempt on HDR imaging hence do give some tips for me to improve it. I’m still learning.
