My interest in photography is ignited by my traveling experience. I bought my first digital camera, Panasonic TZ 3, in 2008, a week prior to a backpacking trip in Europe. I enjoy using the TZ 3 because its long range zoom allows me to capture details at different distances. After using TZ 3 for 5 months during my student exchange, I knew I wanted something with more manual function and better high-ISO pictures. In JUNE 2010, 2 days prior to my trip to Japan, I bought the EP-1 because of its more advanced feature, better picture quality and smaller size (much compact than a DSLR). In late 2010, I purchase a 2nd-hand Canon 450d body and started shooting with this DSLR. I shoot 450d mainly with 2 lens (Tamron 17-50mm F2.8 and Canon 55-250mm IS F4-5.6) as they cover perspectives from wide-angle to tele.

All my pictures are processed in Lightroom 3. I feel that the digital processing with LR3 is like a second go with the viewfinder as I am able to crop unsightly elements and do color toning to my liking. I am still learning to take better pictures. All comments are highly appreciated !
