She's back, a whole new Felicity! In other words, whoever QQ's supplier is, whatever defect there was on the previous body calls for them to give me a brand new body. Took her to shoot Ardina's nikah ceremony, breakfast at TPH with our Breakfast Club and to Giant with the girls, so far so good, she's one good machine!

p/s, mind the overblown highlights on some of the pics, and I think its time to clean up my lens and filters!

Happy 54th birthday to mom, with love from UcingItam.com

When we first started, it was only a handful of people. Outing plans and discussions had to be posted on each other's tagboards with the chance of miscommunication. Outings after outings, our group grew, tables getting longer during JC breakfast sessions. So we thought, we need an online 'headquarters'. Hence Brunei Forever Forum was created with the intention of communicating more effectively.

At the time of this writing, there are 184 members registered under the forum consisting of photobloggers, photographers from professional to hobbyist or just shooting for fun. The forum is open to everyone, from otais to juniors, the only membership fee is 'friendship'.

Yesterday, BFF celebrated it's first anniversary at Blue Eden Restaurant in Kiulap. I missed the group photo session because I came late after covering a wedding.

p/s Happy Birthday to GG, semoga panjang umur murah rezeki!

QQestore called today to tell me that I might only be getting Felicity back on Wednesday. Apparently, they sent it back to the supplier in Singapore and further delay due to the holidays (Good Friday, etc). I still don't know what exactly caused the 'Err 99' crap.

Another mishap happened yesterday afternoon, I was taking pics for our inhouse posters using the company's camera Canon G5 but with my 2GB Kingston Elite Pro CF card. Frankly, my least favourite card due to it's slow buffering despite written "High Speed" on it. Once we wrapped up the shooting, I was reviewing the pics on the LCD when all hell broke lose. "Memory card error" alarm! Thereafter, basically the card was unreadable from any pc. 

Asked around and Googled here and there, I turned to Photoresque and there! I managed to recover the photos with only 2 images gone. Save us from setting up another photoshoot. So I decided, no more Kingston Elite Pro. It's cheap for sure, bought it for $45 only, and that's what I paid for, an afternoon that was almost useless. Equipment malfunction during assignments is a photographer's worst fear!

Anyway, some more pics from Sufri's and Donna's Malam Berambil-ambilan.

next bride and groom?
