Finally, I've found out some photographs that staisfied my requirement. I've attcached my Canon EOS 400D with Nikon Speedlight SB-600 and tried to take a few photos last night in a dinner at Jade Palace Restaurant. The result is awesome!! Actually I saw a number of Canon DSLR photographers attached their body with Nikon Speedlight before. At that time, I told my friends that they must be crazy! In fact, they are not crazy. It does fuctioning well with Nikon speedlight. It's even better than my expensive Canon 580EXII Speedlight leh. Or perhaps, I don't even know how to use my speedlight well? Is time for me to read the Manual liao!! By theway, I attended Foyi appreciation dinner last night. Zhi Yang and GF, Min Xiang, Sau Jie, Zhang Ying and Zhang Hao were there too. Although those pictures looks like over-expose but I just like the outcome! :) what do you think?

The ceremony ended at 11.45am. A light refreshment was served for all children and parents. The burden that I've been carrying for this had finally come to an end for this year. At least, I no need to worry this and that especially lack of volunteer teachers and students. So if you are interested to be one of the volunteer teahcer, I welcome you! Ok? I need at least 6 teachers for the school. Do email me or drop your comment if you are interested to be. Lastly, billion of thanks to all the volunteer teachers, my treasurer Peng Sheng and photographer Min Xiang. Xie Xie!

Everyone of us was impressed by the Hard Rock Hotel's main entrance especially the light. It was so amazing when the light changed from 1 colour to another. That's why you may find there are a lot of photos we took at the main entrance!!

After photo taking, here we came- Hard Rock Cafe! Before entering the cafe, you are requested to show your IC to ensure that you are not under age. Frankly, I don't like the noisy environment like pubs etc but suprisingly I like Hard Rock cafe. May be, it is just suit my taste. Everyone just sitting over there, enjoying the live band with liquor. Come to the environment inside the cafe, it's amazed. The live band was so energetic. One word to describe "KENG". Thumbs up for the environment. Will check it out more next weekend!!! Hard Rock Hotel, we are coming next week!!!

Is Nine Emperor God festival now. Today is the 5th day of the festival. I'm going to start on vegetarian this coming Saturday for last 3 days. I've been observing a strict vegetarian diet for the last 3 days since I was Form 5. Last Saturday, I've witnessed the "welcoming ceremony" for the Nine Emperor Gods at Fat Lebuh Macallum. Just a feww shoots I took and now would like to share them rigth here before the festival ends. I'm now looking for friends to go Thousand Stairs this coming Saturday Morning, anyone? I started to pay my visit to the temple since I started to observe vegetarian diet during this festival. Tentatively, I'm planning to visit Butterworth Nine Emperor Gods Temple tomorrow if everything goes on smoothly. Anyone? It is Big and beautiful!
