November 26th

Practically a month left until Christmas day!
What do you plan on doing for Christmas?
What do you want for Christmas?

I won't be going anywhere for Christmas, probably just working lots and hopefully relaxing over the break Some snowboarding and photo shoots, if it is not too cold or raining
For Christmas I think I want this!


I doubt I'll ever get it considering its a French car and Canada doesn't even sell them.

In truth, I want you for Christmas...

Gran Turismo 5 + Logitech G27 has arrived!

Before I start anything. I have to say thanks to everyone who chipped in to get me the game. I was really not expecting it at all and I really appreciate the thought! Most important, I am just thankful for you guys being there on Friday! Special thanks to Vin for planning everything! Also thanks to my buddy for helping me get the G27 on such a good deal.
Cheers!

GT5 & G27


Hopefully this won't take away me from studying.
Come visit to play if you want. Just remember to bring your racing shoes! Nah~ I am just kidding, I live in an Asian home, so no shoes inside :P

My Room's Window

Another small batch of pictures of Grouse Mountain. Don't think I will take anymore until there are more snow on it. I don't always take landscape pictures or nature pictures. I do too like taking portraits. However, I do not have anyone to take of. That is why it is always landscape now. Don't get me wrong, I do love taking landscape and nature, but I do too want to put a variation in my photography. Hopefully I will be able to find someone to be in my photos.

Sneek Peek at Travel Pictures

Going to post a few pictures of my summer trip. Will post more later. I visited Hong Kong, Taipei, and parts of Southern China (Canton region)

I will make a post for each specific location when I am done choosing and editing the photos.

Need a new name

I just realized that it is pretty common with the initials kc and having the word photography after it. So, I need a new name. I am open to any suggestion and hopefully I can find a new name. As for now, I will be changing it to KevC Photography. Very simple, what do you think?

Logitech G27

Just two more days until the highly anticipated Gran Turismo 5 is released. As many fans like me, we have been waiting for almost 5 years for this game.

For the occasion, I have been looking to invest into buying the new and improved steering wheel made by Logetich, the G27. It is the predecessor of the G25. There are only a few differences between the two. The G27 removed the option of having the gear shifter to go up and down. The shifter is now a much stronger H-box. Another difference is that they installed a LED indicator on the steering wheel to indicate the RPM. A lot of reviews have found it very unnecessary as the player cannot really see it when it is being in used. The most intriguing feature for this steering wheel is that it is the only one on the market to have the clutch with the H gearbox. That is what sold me into getting this. If you are wondering how much this cost, this is retailed at $369.99 at Futureshop.

I have been searching for this around Vancouver for the best deal for quite a long time now. (Best deal is at Anitec for $303.99)However to my surprise, people are just like me are trying to pick this up for GT5. So now, every where is sold out and most orders are backed ordered. I don't even know when they will have it in stock. To my surprise a lot of people are really willing to drop down $300+ for this. I guess you have to have the best equipment to play the so to be best racing game for the PS3.

Now I wonder when I can get mine. Don't know if I really want to play GT5 with a PS3 controller...

Photos taken from my patio. Day after the heavy snowing. Hopefully more similar photos to come.
I think I should start copyrighting my photos, like I did in the first photo. Don't you think so as well? It does look much more professional.

Frosty Vancouver Night

 Need a remote. Even with a tripod it shook, hence the blurry photo

Photos were taken late at night after work. The temperature was at 3 degrees with windchill. Making it feel like -3. I suggest getting a remote. Having just the tripod is not enough. Hopefully next time there won't be a cargo boat in front of Downtown Vancouver.

Time for a new start

New blog, new approach.

This a new blog with a new approach.
I am going to try to post everyday with raw photos and also some digitally edited photos.
Hopefully more photos will be updated regularly.

This blog will not be just photography, but also news, music, and other hobbies.


Cheers,
Kevin
