Kedai Runcit...

Revisited Pasar Gadong this morning with Bruneian and Zadm. The last time, I did not explore the upper level of the market, so this time round, I made sure we did not miss it. The upper floor is the dry market, which is made up of vegetables and fruits stalls and little sundry shops like the one you see above.

From speaking to the tenants, it seems business is not so good these days as people normally frequent the wet market downstairs and seldom venture to the upper floor. I must admit, I have not visited the dry market for quite some time either, preferring to get my veggies from the supermarkets instead.

Will try to make it point to go up there more often... If you're at the wet market buying your fish and meat, why not venture upstairs as well?

Note: Read also Bruneian's lovely commentary on our outing.

  5. Tks guys! My objective here was to give the photo a "painted" look and bring out all the wonderful colours of the subject.

    If you read the literature on HDR, there are purists who argue that this is not photography, and I do agree, but at the same time, I think if the technology is there to create a wonderful piece of art like this from a photograph, why not use it?

    I've never been one to shy away from tech heheh! More eye-candy cometh thy way! Stay tuned!

The migration to wordpress is complete and all posts from today onwards will be at http://anakbrunei.org Do bear with me for the next couple of weeks while I figure out the ins and outs of wordpress hehe. This site will remain visible for archive purposes. Thank you and see you over at the new pad !

I'LL PLUCK YOURS IF YOU'LL PLUCK MINE - Da Boyz Version

Thought I'd do a humourous post to kick off the new year. I read with great interest Vixenova's post on the Dec Girly Bloggers' Night Out and wondered what a Blogger Boys' Night Out would be like. Rano said it'd probably be a bunch of shutterbugs, and I tend to agree. Below is a fictional account based on Vixennova's post. Feel free to ad-lib as required heheh! At the Blogger Boys' Night Out, I got pissed! There's no better way to kick-start a weekend than having a night of cheap wine, cheap cigarettes, gossips , barbecued food and soccer. That night with the boys was such an experience. The conversations were interesting, I've never seen that much dSLRs being laid on one table. Borgkingkong took the honors however, for his HUGE tool, a DVX+Letus35FE The committee Pablo did one swell job and whoever brought that projector to project that Man-U - Arsenal game on the big screen is a genius and the hamburgers made my belly smile. There was me...
