[Traveling] Malang – Pasar Burung Splindid

Leave a reply

Hari Minggu 1/Feb/2015, sehari setelah #Wikufest4 praktis ga ada jadwal. Badan masih ga enak dikombo dengan kalang kabut ngurusin si Ariq. Duh, nih bocah benar-benar ngelatih kesabaran ibu, mbah ma om-om nya deh. But it’s a good thing, he’s curious almost about anything and made his own creativities. Tinggal ngarahin ke hal-hal yang benar ajah :)

Siang janjian untuk photowalk bersama @alyaskrayu, @lazuardy.darfiansa dkk setelah semalam sebelumnya disandera bikin kelas #wikufest4 dadakan soal photography. Paling ga ada yang benar-benar minat akan sesuatu lah :P (Tahun kemarin disandera di kantin buat jadi teman curhat soal tugas PW padahal lagi acara #MozKopdarMLG :P).

Cuaca ga segitu bersahabat setelah hujan cukup deras mengguyur Malang hari itu. Eh tapi ga menghalangi adik-adik ini untuk seriusan mo photowalk. *Saluttt*

#WikuFest4 – 2015 After Party

7 Replies

Ga berasa akhir Januari 2015 sudah menjelang dan seperti biasa perhelatan tahunan Wikusama Festival (Wikufest) dilangsungkan di kampus Telkom School Malang.

Apa sih Wikufest itu?

Wikufest adalah kegiatan sharing session yang diadakan oleh alumni Telkom School Malang untuk adik-adik yang masih bersekolah di Telkom School Malang. Ke depannya sih ga menutup kemungkinan pesertanya bisa dari luar kampus Telkom School Malang.

Namanya sharing session, materinya beragam sekali. Mulai dari pengalaman kerja, merintis usaha, pengetahuan teknis (topik masih seputar IT) hingga komunitas dan hobi.

Alhamdulilah selama 3 Wikufest sebelumnya saya ikut nyumbang materi mulai dari perkembangan mobile technology serta bisnisnya hingga social media. Sayangnya tahun ini saya (nyaris) tidak dapat berpartisipasi karena  kesibukan kantor yang cukup menyita perhatian. Hal ini sudah saya sampaikan ke Yuzron, Dewa, Baros n panitia Wikufest sejak akhir 2014.

[Travel] Assalamualaikum Beijing

Leave a reply

Assalamualaikum Beijing :)

Bukan bukan, ini bukan judul film yang itu kok. Saya belum nonton filmnya apalagi baca bukunya.

Terakhir saya menginjakkan kaki di ibukota China ini sekitar tahun 2007-2008. Dan alhamdulillah, mengawali tahun 2015 ini saya berkesempatan berkunjung kembali ke sini. Well, bukan berkunjung sih tepatnya karena ini bagian dari urusan kantor bertemu dengan kolega dari China Unicom dan China Mobile.

Saya pasti mati kutu kalo ke China. Pertama saya buta aksara, pengetahuan mengenai bahasa Mandarin juga minus (selain angka, beberapa kalimat standar percakapan dan pesan makanan di restoran fasfood, i know nothing). Walaupun saya gemar banget mempelajari sejarah kuno China. Tapi ya butuh teman ngobrol bahasa Inggris jadinya. Paling ga, itu topik yang sangat nyambung buat memulai percakapan dan biasanya merambat kemana-mana :)

[#31DaysOfDecember] 30 – Motorist Mental

Ah shut up and i don’t give a damn with bunch of reasons you always arguing.

You guys are having mental problem and there’s only empty shell inside those helmets.

I was in the very left of the line, and yet there are still these morons in my left *speechless*. They’re blocking the road, so any vehicle will have difficulties to turn left and then they will start honking. No wonder this country and Jakarta is still in a mess…

the morons on my left…

Taken using LG G2 and probably these are my last photos with this amazing Android phone.

 

[#31DaysOfDecember] 29 – LG G2 (D802)

Leave a reply

LG G2 (D802)

I have … well several phones. iPhone5, LG G2 and the bottom of the list is a Firefox OS Flame.

So far i think the best investment i’ve made was my iPhone5. It’s stable, never having issues, all the app i need are there in AppStore and the speaking about UX, well i prefer iOS over any kind of Android. I’m sold to iPhone.

These phones are extension to my photography activities. And when talking about that, my LG-G2 has done awesome jobs.

In daylight, the quality is head to head with the iPhone5 (both using stock camera app). In low light, LG G2 is the winner. LG produced better jpeg than iPhone5. And another strong point in hardware part is LG G2 camera has OIS, optical image stabilization.

OIS help you focus better specially in low light when you need longer shutter release. iPhone5 doesn’t have that, not until iPhone 6 plus released.

Here are some sample of photos I’ve made with LG G2 and its stock camera app. Resize only using Apple Preview.app.

Table cloth in Negev. EXIF said it’s in f/2.4 as you can see the shallow DOF. I let the camera in auto focus mode

very low light in DWP day#1 spot metering and focusing

dim light at Negev couple hours ago, selected focus to that red sangria glass.

Most of my photos during my trip to Kyoto last March were actually taken with this LG G2. So i really recommended it to you who’s looking for a smartphone with very good camera and reasonable price.
