It’s Australia Day today and since there’s 2 Aussies in the house (and since it’s a cuti day), we spent the day celebrating it by watching cricket on TV, having chicken sangers and chips at a picnic and watching fireworks in the city. Uish, ada sesape ke yang paham my Aussie slang ni? hehehehe…. Sape yang nak tau tu, cricket is a game and not the insect. Hari ni the game was a one-day game between Australia and Pakistan and Australia won the game. Sangers pulak is Aussie talk for sandwiches and chips are chips :-).
And I finally managed to capture some nice photos (well I think they are nice for someone like me :-)) of the fireworks which I’m so happy with. Nasib baik lah pergi the course sebelum pergi tengok fireworks kan, kalau teh other way round, memang hampeh lah my photos, hehehehe…. Even The Other Half pun kata, tak sia2 dia suruh I gi the DSLR course, wahahahaha….
And before we watched the fireworks, we took The Little Misses to go on some rides in the city..
Yes, we’ve got camels here in Australia. We even have wild camels here which if I’m not mistaken they are exporting to the Middle East, hehehe…
I think she looks so sweet in this face painting of a mask :-).
Adik dia kan true blue Aussie so gambar kangaroo yang dia nak on her face, hehehe..
Sekali pandang macam muka catwoman tengah panjat dinding nak menceroboh masuk rumah orang aje kan. Dua kali pandang baru macam rupa Miss 10, hikhikhik…
Tak puas naik camel, naik pony pulak nya..
We all pun ada Eye of Perth :-)…
And now, jeng jeng jeng…. My fireworks pictures :-)
I know it’s not the best shots of fireworks but for a beginner like me, I’m happy. I malas betul nak touch up kat photoshop sebab dah mengantuk. Kalau I touch up, agaknya lagi lah ‘wow’ ye, hehehe…

Two things:
1. I read your blog from time to time and was pleasantly surprised to find my former student here, Asilah....when I saw her picture with you. Thanks!
2. I love the Australian slang...I was in Melbourne some months ago. I bought the newspaper one morning and read about "hoons doing donuts". Dind't have any idea what it was about, but I asked a bus driver about it. I took the newspaper back to Msia to show my students the beauty of Aussie slang.
Take care!!!!
Mieza,
thanks :-). I pun happy gak tengok my first try at taking fireworks picture. Memang ada kemajuan lah, hehehe
Auntie Meriam,
marah jurugambar professional nanti bila Auntie kata gambar I mcm gambar diaorang yg dah pro, hehehe :-)
Mami,
best woh pergi kursus DSLR ni sbb tetiba mata I yg rabun/buta bila hal2 DSLR jadi celik sikit. AT least skrg dah paham lah jugak bila baca manual tu, hahaha
el_kz,
I'm happy with the results too:-D
dya,
thank you :-)
Kerry,
definitely tak kan jadi pro nya sbb klu jadi pro maksudnya kena cari duit fr photography lah kan, hikhikhik....
CikSom,
I naik jugak unta tu but memang betul2 rasa lain mcm kan, not comfy at all :-). I takut aje kena gigit dgn unta yg kat belakang I tu, hahahaha...
Shaz,
I pakai lens yg comes with the canon package efs 18-55mm f3.5-5.6. I ada 2 lenses aje so far sbb I'm going to wait until I've mastered both beofre beli lens yg lain, hehehe
Syuhada,
Kat Australia ni kan bnyk padang pasir, tu yg unta2 suka sgt hidup kat sini, hahaha
Ayu,
We all ni pulak dah lama beli DSLR,baru skrg tau guna sikit2. Baru lah rasa berbaloi beli camera ni, hikhikhik...
Pujuk lagi kuat Ayu!
Frida,
naik camel, jangan tak caya, hehehe.
I guna tripod sbb tak sanggup nak pegang lama2 and my hands ni bukannya boleh stable aje.
Yat,
I kena beli telephoto lens lah next sbb nak jadi papparazzi yg dedicated, hahaha :-P
Haslina,
Salam :-).
I know Asilah from blogging and then we met up twice already :-).
It happened to me as well when I first came to Aust, couldn't understand some of the words and accent. But after a while, I got used to the slang and use them in everyday conversation :-).

lin muhamad last post..#NOW EVERYONE CAN COOK..no more excuse k!
Syabas..! practice makes perfect kan?
cantik la gambar bunga api tu...
hello sista,
sangat superb!! kalo tiap2 malam ada fireworks mesti syiok nak ambil gmbr... night photography memang sangat cantik kalau kita rajin cari bahan utk dpaparazzi kan... and of course with the help of si kaki tiga.. (tripod)..
kalau dah takde fireworks, u try la pulak ambil gambar bintang, bulan... mesti cantik... one of my fav. photographer is rarindra prakarsa (he's indonesian).... gmbr dia mmg cun gila... boleh blajar lebih byk tips dari dia..
last but not least, bila nak tengok potrait of urself.. (hehe... photographer normally camera shy.. betol tak??? lebih suka ambil gmbr orang but tak suka ambil gambar sendiri...
Salam LG :-D
Here comes a photographer in the making!!! Great pic. Now I remember, Miss 10 tu ala2 Isabella Rosselini la!
BTW, I like the angle you captured the Eye of Perth tu. Ada view of Perth from up there?
Alahai..cantik la gambar2 tu...best best...

Susah ada anak kecik ni nak keluar malam for night photography :-). And I pun tak berani sgt nak keluar mlm2 kat sini sbb so quiet.
That indonesian photographer memang so very talented ye, his photos are amazing!
I kena set timer lah klu nak ambik gambar I, hahaha...
