High Key Wedding

05Jul09

Got another wedding job after no job for I think 1 month because of waiting for license test. Damn bored without a job. Now, I know how it feel without a job when grads. Last time my friend used to tell me very bored when grads nothing to do and I will tell them relax slow slow and you will have job. Don’t be so frust. Now, my turn I feel my words is no use at all…hahaha….I am frust without a job. OK, I should apply for job without care about the license test then. Going to do plastic surgery tomorrow…hehe..LOL…Totally, out of topic…sorry..

OK, back to the topic. This time wedding I choose to do high key type and kind of success. Using 2-4 flashes just for a shot and you know wedding you need rush here and here and sure you will have thing missing. And I have miss something anyway. I should think of a proper way to do high key wedding next time. It’s not easy to hold 3 flashes on your hand and shoot at the same time. And it not safe also put it at the floor. I experience that so I won’t do the same mistake then. You know what. My flash got kick!!!! >.< The flash fly so far…lucky just a china made flash…huh….

Firefox 3.5 launch

01Jul09

At last firefox 3.5 launch. Due to different time zone so their 30th June is ours 1st July. hahahaha…that mean I have my birthday again if I go there…LOL…Anyway, here come firefox 3.5 with better speed, video part, and updated many new function. Let’s have a look…

Performance. Firefox 3.5 includes the powerful new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, which delivers unprecedented performance with today’s complex Web applications. Firefox 3.5 is more than two times faster than Firefox 3 and ten times faster than Firefox 2.

Open Video and Audio. Enjoy video and audio content from within your browser, without the need for plugins. Video is a vital part of the modern Web, whether it’s used to communicate, educate, or entertain. Firefox 3.5 delivers the first native integration of audio and video directly into the browser. Now everyone can easily watch open format Ogg Theora videos.

Web developers can use these technologies to design pages that interact with video content in new and exciting ways, offering richer interactive experiences beyond controlling playback and volume.

Privacy Controls. Firefox 3.5 includes features designed to protect your privacy online and provide greater control over your personal data.

While using the new Private Browsing mode in Firefox 3.5, nothing you encounter on the Web will be stored from that moment on during your browsing session. Unique to Firefox 3.5, the new Forget this Site feature can remove every trace of a site from your browser. If you want to remove all private data or activity from the past few hours, Clear Recent History, another Firefox-only feature, gives you full control over what stays and what goes.

Location Aware Browsing. Location Aware Browsing saves you time by allowing websites to ask you where you are located. If you choose to share your location with a website, it can use that information to find nearby points of interest and return additional, useful data like maps of your area. It’s all optional – Firefox doesn’t share your location without your permission.

Seriously, I am using it right now….For speed I think its now realy great….loading website is like so fast. Open video without any plugin needed now. This is pretty cool function because normally always got the message said that please install the plugin..This is pretty cool too no plugin for video and audio. Oh well, the piracy control is pretty cool too, now you can surf anywhere without any trace just by open the piracy mode. Well, this all I can explain just used it for an hour only before writting this post.

Hope discover more soon….

Here the link to download Firefox 3.5

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

For current Firefox user you can click on the update to update it. No download is require.

Enjoy
