Cyanotype (16th Round)

Almost 2 months since my last sun-printing.

Same as last round, just exposed with the dark transparencies prepared with the methods initially used for tri-colour printing, and then printed over the other colours by Epson printer.








A correction from my previous test. The length of the paper (Daler Rowney Fine Grain - Cartridge 160gsm) did shrink a mere 1mm after dry, but the misalignment you see here wasn't due to the shrinkage of paper. I was surprised to find out that the printout of a 18x13.5cm image will become 18.3x13.72cm in size whenever I choose high quality output. Though the printout size is correct if I choose normal output which is only suitable on plain paper. To rectify this problem, I need to reduce the image to 98-99% on white background color, but not the image size in order to keep the printer alignment on A4 paper setting.

I do like the misalignment. But I too want to have the control to minimise it a little.  Like the first gif file on top (the bus no. 7) which I've reduced the image by 1%.

A friend said:'Follow u from office one ahh.. That one always lepak at ur room corner.'

Another friend think it is some creature from Star Wars.

If actual fact, that were some dirt marks on the train window. With the tunnel light and reflection from the carriage, it created something. It looked like a pharaoh face, don't you think so?



Eat Eat Eat. Sure put on more weight.

Bought this Korean product a week ago.

Try it out today and am amazed by the result. No scrubbing needed. Just squeeze the gel on the area, leave it for an hour and wash it away with water. Voila 😮

Gourmet Burgers

#gourmetburgers #lombardosburgers @lombardos.singapore

Wow. Tried the most expensive burger in Singapore, which costed $250. It came with a 200g patty of seared Japanese Kobe wagyu brisket topped with a butter-poached lobster tail, pan-seared foie gras, banana shallots braised with champagne, shaved Italian truffle, spicy red cabbage compote and a spoonful of caviar. And the top of the bun was covered in gold leaf.

Anyway, the profits go to Children’s Charities Association of Singapore. So it was a good cause. Verdict : Delish and definitely worthy. The signature Singapore Fling burger that came with Wagyu patty topped with spicy crab meat was super yummy as well. We will be back to try the other burgers. 😋 😋 😋

Biscuits & Cookies


Got this from my colleague. I didn't know that Shiseido got selling biscuits as well.






When I saw this Oreo Music Box, I just couldn't resist but to get one for fun.

It has different tunes some more.  Lovely.
