Nowadays, few people take in a nice view without simultaneously describing it on social networks via tablets or smartphones. Traditional vantage points and places of attraction will no longer be popular unless there is wi-fi or cellular coverage 🙂

Selasih
Holy Basil (Tulsi or Selasih) seeds in lemon rose syrup is a refreshing cold drink served at Nyonya Valley, Ukay Boulevard. I placed a LitePanels LP-Micro as a single light source under the glass. Since the light has variable output, I was able to trim until I got the right intensity for the chosen f3.7 – 1/80 sec manual setting.
Using the optional VF-2 viewfinder on the OM-D made angled viewing and adjustment from the dining table POV easier. Lens was the relatively huge but very sharp Four Third 12-60mm f2.8 Zuiko Digital via the MMF-3 adaptor. Quite a contraption for a dinner outing but a good drink deserves the best gear 🙂
Hash Sunday
Is Hash Sunday for me if I get up early enough 🙂
Some OM-D users discard or misplace the little clip-on flash that came with the camera. Never do that. Ironically, you will need it later when you expand your system with a bigger external flash unit.
To photograph this Hash Brown backlit, I hid a FL-36R flash unit behind. The flash was triggered remotely with the clip-on flash acting as a wireless commander.
The hash brown and scrambled eggs were part of a McDonald’s Big Breakfast meal.
