panoramaXL Truck

Design study to make use of the empty advertising space at the side of my van. Hope it looks similar strong in real. Lets find a company producing the film for a reasonable price.

One night in Bangkok

A short trip less than 24 hours length rewarded me with exactly 2 panoramic shots. Some through-hotelroom-window shot (are the buildings leaning?) and one shot inside the new airport. The V705 is really not suited for mixed light, it is build for sunshine postcards !

Bintan Panoramic Postcard

Bintan, small Indonesian island a stonethrow from Singapore (1 hour ferry) is a good beach getaway if you dont want to step into a plan. Unofrtunately its completely "controlled" by tourists from Singapore, so the prices are fully adapted and NOT indonesian standard. Anyway we had a good relaxing 2 days. I didnt bring any serious cam, but the my V705 friend, which I played with when it got too booring. Some postcard style stuff.
Bintan, Indonesia

Shootout Canon 1Ds vs Kodak V705

Yep, it is not a fair competition ! Not even a help for you to decide on which camera you gonna buy (besides the fact that both cameras are not available anymore). But for the fun of comparing.

Canon 1Ds: one image 11MP, pano sample image (org) 2.4393x 3.968 ( part of a 23 image pano)
Kodak V705: one image 5PM, pano sample image (org) 6.196x1.696 (3 shot pano mode)

Singapore Chinese Garden Panorama

Some postcard panoramas from my early morning walk around Chinese Garden. This is really my panoramic playground and sandbox. During the week I am alone with some workers cleaning the walkways and cutting the lawn and the security guard lady at the entrance who knows my name by now as "regular". The place only gets "crowded" during saturdays and sundays. One of the sleepy tourist attraction in Singapore and I love it for that. Hope that there is no masterplan to put it under a roof and install an aircondition.

Company Car

The first panoramaXL truck ! The logo is not printed yet (and its rather boring placed like that). I am playing around with some ideas to place a panoramic view onto the truck. I love photoshop. Will upload some ideas soon..

Avertising Budget

Put some money aside from various jobs as a small advertising budget running ads in lifestyle and design related magazines. If you want to explore this field I advise dont spend too much and also dont raise your expectations too high regarding feedback. You dont need to hire a fulltime secretary to be able to handle all the incoming calls and emails because of the ad !

New Terminal 3 of Singapore Changi Airport

The new and shiny terminal 3 of Changi Airport. A mixture of shopping-center and airport though. The continous competition with Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur and new Bangkok airport. A nice place with some beautiful architectural features.
Cant notice the seams because of the cluttery design. I love this camera !

Happy New Year 2008

A new panoramic year starts. Hope you continue to enjoy the journey. Any resolutions ? Not really, make more panoramas and prints. Spend more time outside. To have a good start today I was loitering around Bukit Batok Park and West Coast Park.
