Who Yu?

I’ve just attended an Arizona Diamondbacks versus Milwaukee Brewers game at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. I’ve originally wanted to take my Canon EOS 7D to capture some action shots of the game. After browsing on the D-back’s website about what their cameras regulations were, I decided to only take my Canon Powershot SD750. On the D-backs website it states, “…non-professional still cameras for personal use may be brought into Chase Field…”(http://bit.ly/9S3SKu) Apparently the regulations vary with the different ball teams in the MLB. I would recommend that you check the teams website to find out what they allow, before you bring out your DSLR and have to leave your valuable camera in your car during the game.

With only my point and shoot, I decided to not take action sports shots and play around with panoramic photos. I’ve photographed 4 photos for this single image. I like to rotate my camera to take panos portrait style to capture a greater vertical range. Which I end up cropping parts of it. I usually use Adobe Photoshop CS3 to stitch together my panos. I just happen to have a demo version of Adobe Photoshop CS5 which has an awesome feature called “context sensitive fill”. After stitching together the photos and cropping a portion of the image, I “fill” in some of the missing areas using the “context sensitive fill” and ba-ba-bing, I have my panoramic of Chase Field stitched together from four photos taken by hand holding my point & shoot SD750.

Unfortunately for the D-backs, they lost the game 3 to 17.

Hong Kong is constantly growing and changing. A portion of the ocean near the Central District of Hong Kong Island was reclaimed as part of the Central and Wan Chai Reclamation. This will be used to construct the Central-Wan Chai Bypass and other transportation needs.

it’s been a while since I’ve posted to this blog. i am going to attempt to post a lot more this year. However, my post will probably be mostly photos with a small amount of text.

This photo is of the Hong Kong skyline at night. The photo was taken from my iPhone and it is actually several photos stitched together with the iPhone app, AutoStitch.
