My heart stilled, for a moment.
A Leica CL in a perfect unmarred black coat stared back at me, making me long to run my fingers down its smooth body.
AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Its more beautiful than an M2 could be. I still think of it... (:
Anyway, got the slides yesterday. I'm glad to say that MY CL meters perfectly. I shall console myself with the knowledge that mine is working fantastic, even if it might not resemble a newborn baby.
Used Fuji Velvia 100F, the colours were stunning as usual. Sad to say, when I used Prince Hairy to digitise them (apologies in advance for lousy focus), he couldn't bring out the colours the way they really were!
Anyway, here's most of what was taken. Some photos were burnt out cos I opened the camera to look at the battery haha (:
First shot was the bitchy.

She doesn't like being in front of the camera - I guess many people conscious about their looks aren't.
I don't know what happened here (cos nothing is in focus haha!) but the blurred parts look nice to me (: We were waiting for Lily at Bugis MRT.

Then we went to eat steamboat!

Tada, Miss Lily and our uncooked food. V thin DOF as the lighting was bad and ISO was low... But I still love velvia (:
Burnt photo here. That's my bag... and a really cute cupcake I gave my student for Children's Day. I'm not used to the fact that RFs can't focus close-up.

On Saturday, went film shooting with YS (:
Here's the fella who escaped from jail (names evade me).

I really liked the flower below (: And its blur because I didn't focus well on the slide.

I'd really love to go inside the vintage shops one day (:

I wonder if these kids were trying to colour code on that day. Thought it was something only couples would do.

Wanted to take the guy inside the door, but it was dark inside. And he was dark-skinned, which didn't help.

I'm beginning to see my photos in a new light. Hurried photo-taking which resulted in lousy compositions. Disappointment. Perhaps, not used to the framing was a contributing reason too.

Hehe, check out the blue of his shirt! Is that velvia at work? :P The trolley thing is the exact colour I remembered though.

While I was taking this photo, YS took a photo of me, haha! Will upload that soon.
I have no idea what I thought when taking this. Its so random!

Pretty curtains

Wanted to test bokeh here

Burnt out, and overexposed. Bit of salvage done for colours here.

On the slides for this one, the orange and red lines were so saturated and fantastic. Here, not so much ):

A pretty yellow door (:

I'm beginning to wonder if the framelines in the CL are a bit wonky cos some shots are coming out differently from the compositions I did.

YS at Haji Lane. He looked very orange here - I doubt its velvia though - so I desaturated it a bit.

Ending with my bedtime companion, Hippoo.

**Reminder to self - stock up on more velvia.
