Lovely Ranchus !

Brought the kids down to Plaza Singapura last Saturday, as I wanted to terminate and return my Starhub digital set-top box (getting too expensive).


Anyway, was wondering in basement 2 and came across these lovely Ranchus. I remembered my mom likes to keep goldfish and there was always a ranchu that did somersaults. And I'm always fascinated when they did their little trick.



Common problem when people take photographs of fish (or anything else) in a tank, or behind/near glass. The flash always blankets out everything.

If the tank is bright enough, turn off the flash. Of course, your hands would have to be very steady. If not, use a tripod.

If using flash is unavoidable, take the photo at an angle to the right or left, and not directly in front of the subject. In this way, at least most of the flash is reflected away from the camera.

momo, throw away the M1 broadband when the contract is up. SingTel wireless so much better.
