Bedazzled by God's work - The Magnificent Milky Way!

It's been seven years since I last posted in this blog. With the advancement of FB and Instagram, blogging seems so passe! And yet, when out of curiosity, I revisited this site recently, I found much joy in reading my own past blog.  Trivial it may seems.. but definitely makes an interesting read for myself.. There's a lot of "really? " and "did I actually did this or felt his way? "

So I think it's most appropriate to refresh this blog with my recent pursue. 
I had in the past two years learnt and still learning to meddle with my Canon EOS 760D. 
Though I definitely can't say that I have some great shots to boast about, but looking back at those previous photos taken before DSLR days, I think I've come a long way. 

One of my greatest joy is to be able to capture the Milky Way and showing it off without the needs of much PS treatment.

The following photos were taken at Penyabong, a small village near Mersing, Johore. We had over the last one and half years been there numerous time and been feeding those mozzies with our juicy blood. But the recent trip two weeks ago was the most rewarding. 

Friday night was a teaser. Sky cleared for about 30mins and sighting was vague. We had only Saturday night to wish for clear sky and say hello to Milky Way before the seasons end this year. 
Remembering Matthew 18:20, For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them. We prayed together and lo and behold, our prayers were answered! 

Saturday night was showtime indeed!  Clear skies from about 8pm onwards to 2am! We were overjoyed! Best night ever! Thank you Jesus!!! Thank you for the great show!
Entire sky blanketed with stars! 

Milky Way, visible thru the naked eyes

My Implants

Dr Lynn Yeo - www.lynnyeo.com.sg Its been 11 days after the implant... I am seeing fine now. Close vision still not too good but according to Dr. Yeo, my eyes are still adjusting. That probably explained the fact that at certain time of the day I see fine and some time, a little out of focus. For near sighted reading, it helps using a reading glass. At least for now; may gets better, may not. But thats just for reading. Otherwise everything else is ok. Can check out the cute guys, no problem :-) She also given me the green light to resume work out. So I am hitting the gym tonite! Yippee! Ok, the moment I mentioned implant, everyone's eye automatically move to u know where! No I don't need that! I am proudly well endowed :-) So I have this need to clarify. Its ICL or rather in my case, Toric ICL - implantable contact lens. Lasik is something I've always wanted. But unfortunately I am not medically qualified because of my thin and irregular cornea. I was so disap

Fajitas Dinner

Image
Sixteen years in Texas and finally now back in Singapore after 10 years, I finally attempted to make this signature dish. Been back for 10 years and still cannot find any restaurant that can come close to the real TexMex Fajitas. Started marinading the flank steak right after noon. Was not able to get hold of the regular Texas lime; so used calamansi & lemon instead. Out of ziploc bag so used the bowl instead. Would be better in the ziploc cos then the flavor will be completely sealed in. But anyhow, it still turned out awesome. Marinade with onions, cilantros, bell pepper, salt & cumin. Finally ready for grill after chilling in marinade for about 6 hours Did the whole enchiladas...man have not used this expression for a while! Guess for this, it is most befitting. Did guacamole, pico de gallo and Mexican rice. All from scratch. Rice is cooked with fresh tomatoes, pureed with onions. Was not able to get any avocados cos those that Daisy bought for me was not ripe yet..
