D.I.Y. Fisheye Lens
Since I bought my E-500, I had been dreaming of a fisheye lens. But until now, I still cannot afford one. What I like about the fisheye lens are the effect of the round distortion and it can cover super ultra wide angle of sight... Read More...

Cattleya Noid A

Last two month, I bought two pots of orchids to add to my collection. They are from Cattleya species. I don't really know their exact species because most of the nurseries in Malaysia do not named the orchids they sell.

Recently, one of them started to show sign of blooming. This pot I called it Cattleya Noid A, have two pseudobulb starting to grow flower buds...


The entire pot...

One of the pseudobulb with two flower buds...






Just now, I 'killed' the baby bud from another pseudobulb. I'm so upset and dissappointed at myself... :(


Can you see the 'injured' part??

Lesson learned: Handle plants with care and they will show their 'appreciation' to you...

I will post more when the buds start to bloom...

Last month I was walking through the arboretum when a gentlman with a wagon of orchid plants walked by.
I admired the plants and said I wished I had one to take care of. He said goodbye then turned around and handed me a large pot of a cattelya plant. Now it has a bud growing from two of the leaves!
