Contrast: Isn’t it wonderful that such a little black box known as the camera can absorb so many patterns of light know as photos? 😛
Anyway… I had actually planned to continue my Psychology series today but… I’m actually… sick. 😦 so I can’t really think straight.
But I was lucky I was able to make a vlog this week before my throat went down and you can check it out at my ‘Vlogging Channel’ tab!
Have a great Sunday!

For Chinese New Year, I did an interesting experiment with my Nikon Coolpix p520, that of the famous light painting! Like this:
First, I’d like to share the video tutorial that led me to discover this amazing art:
Watch it if you want to know how to do it, because here I’m mainly going to show how it’s not necessary to have all these high tech equipments to achieve the same results.
Basically, here’s what you need to do light painting:
– Torches (any colour! or many colours! I actually used my phone’s flashlight, which was downloaded on Play Store :P)
– Any camera that can be manually set to low exposure (low shutter speed)
– Something stable to put your camera on, like a tripod.
– Preferably a remote control, like in the video above, so as to again minimize shakiness. Because pressing the shutter button directly can make the camera shaky, I guess.
– And most importantly: friends!!! Yeps, and have fun! I had my sister and cousins with me 🙂
This week’s challenge is based on the theme of Community. And here’s what I got…
At this time of the year our whole worldwide community stirs in unity due to the holiday season, especially Christmas.
“Let there be light” to “It is finished” only amounted to bo-oum.
~ A Passage to India by E. M. Forster
I hope I got the quote right… Didn’t check but then a few weeks ago I was revising this book for my literature exams 😛
Anyway… LET THERE BE LIGHT!

They picture it and I write; here’s this week’s Picture it & Write:
Suddenly she burst out of the room.
She had known it all along. Her boss was an evil monster. She had seen him, his face vehemently changing into a disgusting greyish weird shape, while his nose and eyebrows had seemed to melt and his teeth falling off…
Illumination… An interesting theme to tackle since New Year celebrations have just passed… Thus I photographed little fireworks 😀 (the one that we place on the ground and which remains on the ground even when we light it up!)
Here’s this week’s contribution to Picture it & Write:
I stared at the starry night that offered this last day of the year. All my people were in joy, in celebration. It would be soon the end, yet the beginning. No one and nothing would dare miss this day, this hour. All the stars were present. All the colours in the sky as well: blue, purple, red, pink…
Midnight would soon strike.
Yesterday I attended the last day of the MUN (Model United Nations) Conference of this year – organised for students… and for us to think of a brighter future 🙂 We all sang ‘We are the world’ in the end of the closing ceremony:
Do you see how beautiful it is when all the lights are turned off except the ones on stage?
For New Year I received a brand new award called Candle Lighter from kweschn.wordpress.com! 🙂 Thanks so much again!
The rules:
Whenever you see a post or blog that you think brings light to the world, put a copy of this post and give them The Candle Lighter Award. What does the recipient have to do to accept it? Just accept it. They can copy and paste the photo on this post onto their blog. What else do recipients have to do? Nothing. If they think someone else is a Candle Lighter, they can surely give them the award anytime and as often as they want. There is no limit to how many blogs you award The Candle Lighter Award to and no limit to how many times someone can receive it.
