I just have to brag:
Dear Sir/Madam,
Greetings from Malaysian Nature Society!
Last March, in conjunction with RWW 2008, MNS, in partnership with Nikon and CLICK! Magazine played host to the Wildframe Competition in which participation was indeed encouraging! Out of the 100 entries, the top three for each category, have been selected by our distinguished panel of judges. Hence, we would like to congratulate the following winners:
Nature
1st Prize – Choo Chi Yen
2nd Prize – Sanjitpaal Singh
3rd Prize – Hafiz Noor Shams
I never had the confidence to say I am good at photography. Now, I can say, I am that good.
Whoa. Watch out ladies, a big head is on the move! Haha. I can not wait until somebody pops up my balloon.
Concerning the competition, I do not remember what I won but I hope I would get another digital camera. Since Nikon is the sponsor of the competition, it should be a CoolPix model. I would like a new digicam because my Fuji has become unreliable lately for some reason. There is something wrong with the transmission of power. Sometimes, it does not switch on when I switch it on.
Do not get me wrong. Despite that, I love my Fuji and it has been faithful to me ever since I was a freshman at Michigan.
Anyway, I do find having a digital point and shoot camera extremely handy. As I have learned, DSLR and point and shoot camera are not really a substitute to each other. There are times for each type: DSLR is good when you are out there determined to get good pictures in a challenging environment; a digicam is just for “oh, that is interesting” and you just want a picture and not really a Pulitzer Prize-worthy piece.
I used to bring my camera every I go when I was in school at Michigan. I want to do that again but a DSLR is just too bulky for that purpose.
