ha ha Geojam....welcome again...!!! many thanks for promoting my services.....btw, we can start a business... you market, I do the photo taking...::: how how ...??
many thanks idesa168... one day i try.. then when they accept I know I have arrived... that will be the day... meanwhile I have my simple pleasure to know I have got that nice shot.... e.g that hawk eagle...to see that glimp of its eye... and then catching it in flight...at the right focus... i did have my fix...
hi Eastonbay... i really dont know about that.I dont think he is senile... he has a lot of steam it would appear .. in fact too much... perhaps he can blame the administration, but he has got his pay... if he was so concerned about free spending etc and well meaning he should have resigned.. . that guy has really lost my respect... but like $$come$$go says what do you expect from a guy who hero worships Ayn Rand and her
''My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute."
the above translate into " an self serving arse hole"

Chinkiasu is for hire.He takes wedding picturs etc...
His rates are reasonable...only S$10k for max.of 5 hour session.
Interested to hire his services?
cks, this is what happens when one gets old, senile, insecure, self serving, unfortunately. We must agree that a lot of things were forced on him too.. by Bush administration and Republican dominated house in the past few years. The republican almost single handedly killed his legacy. Record budget deficit etc etc... of course he's to be blamed because he is the one who allowed the administration to spend freely in order to keep his job as fed chairman. Now he turns around to say that the free spending admin is killing USA.
CKS, I saw your pictures of Africa. Very well and professionally taken. I am sure these pictures worth some $$. Try posting to companies like Discovery Channel, Lonely Planet or Insight Guides. I am sure there will be some use for these images.
What else can one expect from someone who reads Ayn Rand seriously !... 

ya loh.. he was responsible for creating the situation that allowed the sub prime market to develop (and never control it claiming it cannot be done) and now somemore he come around to spout advice when he is not liable .... I am beginning to think he is a self serving person..
Hi CKS,
Nah.... I don't have any nice pics to share.... too lazy to upload to any website too. hehehehe...
I'm also waiting for the Fed tommorow. Greenspan is spouting unwanted advice to his successor Bernake again. sigh.....
how about sharing some of your favourite pixs...
meanwhile we also wait with abated breadth what the Fed is gona do tomorrow......
it is so ironic... we always have to watch the elephants... and pick the worms that they stirr up as they walk by... that is the story of the cattle egrets.. those white birds we see even in Singapore nowadays..
Haha.. all I have are a small Canon Ixus tourist camera and my handphone camera!
actually Singaporegal, the lodge i stayed in (also in the pics) had a swimming pool and private jacuzzis that over looked the escarpment to the plains below... i think you would enjoy the relaxation there..
do you take pics too?
Hahaha... of course. Stupid question...

Envious that you get to see so many exotic things.
hi Singaporegal, I think I would not be around to post the pics if I had stood near as I would have to with a normal camera/lens. The animals are wild, even the buffalo would gore me, and the elephants would tramble me flat....
yes I was using a 500mm lens with Canon 30D and I was in a modified range rover (special open top)
Hi chinkiasu,
Did you have to get close to the animals to take such shots? Or were you using a zoom lens?
thanks folks for all the encouragement... also Lausk for giving me the "stress" to take a few pics... no sir Tanglin..I am just a hobbist.. but I hope one day if I can earn a few bucks for my pics I will consider that I have arrived...
EastonBay,
No problem. Take your time to put the monkey in its place...:)
Thanks cks, Great pics. You must be a professional photographer, earning big bucks.
Wah... CKS sir.... do you work for National Geographic??!!
Very nice pictures!

hi Eastonbay, welcome back... !! Geojam, thanks..and my dear Singaporegal, Lausk22 and folks...
here is the link to my pics http://picasaweb.google.com/chinkiasu/MasaiMara
best view as slideshow... have a good week end...
oops the two monkey gods didn't show up.. Two contrasting pic of monkey god I took during this trip. I've got to ask cks how he does his.. the other way is to put up the photos on the web and paste a link.. that will take time..
anyway, thanks for all the welcome msgs.
Singaporegal: I am hunting my next exotic destination. Running out of ideas. I visited Tibet last July. So I have done both that are high up in my list. Unlike cks who travels very frequently.. I can only do this once a year!
Choohian: yes, I remember you of course.. you don't post often these days.. (maybe you do, but I haven't been reading)
Giantlow: why..? we miss you posts.. and your sense of humour.
lausk22, this monkey god ?
or this?
