Photo Hunt: Spotted

January 30th, 2010 · 8 Comments

This bird was spotted at the window chirping away. It seemed as if it’s scared. It kept chirping and chirping as if hoping to get help or get attention whenever there’re other birds flew by. It tried to flap its wings few times but couldn’t fly. It tried to walked a bit and almost fell. Fear could obviously be seen in its eyes.

Such a pity. It’s as if a little child or baby trying to get attention or help from an adult but no one bothers about him/her. However, after quite sometimes, it finally flew away.

Was the bird trying to learn to fly? Hmm…

Photo Hunt: Balanced

This plushy seemed not balance with its big head and small body but it’s balanced enough to stand steadily. This is actually one of the plushy from the Big Headz range. Redeemed this when we collected enough stickers from a local pharmacy.

Photo Friday: Damaged

January 22nd, 2010 · No Comments

My damaged Canon DIGITAL IXUS i zoom that suffered from E18 Error. It is a well know flaw by users of Canon Powershot and Ixus cameras but not acknowledged by Canon as a flaw in camera design.

Canon DIGITAL IXUS i zoom had been accompanying me since 2006 and finally rest in peace in 2008. Actually it could still be used. It could still work fine sometimes. It will only cause problem when the lens couldn’t retract which also known as E18 Error. It’s either get it repaired or get a new one.

Tried to troubleshoot it ourselves after I found out about it online but when we opened up the casing, it’s too complicated so decided to send to the pro for it but the repair was too expensive. Sigh… So I had to get a new one which I’m using currently, Canon DIGITAL IXUS 80 IS.

Hmm… I know this is not quite kid friendly ;p It’s a pretty difficult theme this week.

That’s pretty jiggly don’t you think so?

Well… According to dictionary.com:

Informal. featuring women in clothing designed to be sexually suggestive by accentuating the breasts: jiggly TV shows.

That’s how I got the idea hahaha…
