TRAVEL

Where: Johor Bahru
From: 31st December 2016
Till: 1st January 2017

1. Fuhh..one year dohhh.

2. Left home around 8.00 am.

3. Had breakfast in Seremban RnR PETRONAS station Dunkin Donut as we wanted to go to the next parking area but closed.

4. Reached first destination for a kenduri kawin in Kem Dayang, Kg Air Putih, Pekan Nenas - a family resort turned into motivational camp in the middle of jungle.

5. Arrived and checked-in Hotel Swiss-Inn around 4.00 pm.


room directory



corridor on level 5..they have different colour scheme for each floor and the 5th floor is manggo if not mistaken..you have to scan your room card on the lift panel to be able to go to your floor..




..fifth floor theme is orange..the parking is level 3 and 4 where you have to make one round through a main road to the back to enter the parking level..the entrance to the parking is individual to each floor.. 




the cafe is on level 1


6. It was an easy driving as not many cars on the road. The weather was good.

7. We went to the Kilang Bateri, Jalan Tampoi for dinner.














8. Then we dropped-by a Bazaar on Jalan Tan Hiok Nee on the way back to the hotel.



9. There were street retail vendors selling all kinds of goods on the paved street which was closed to the traffic.





10. Some of the shop-lots along the road had been turned into cafes etc. 

11. The architecture was simple and basic when lack of decorative elements which i supposed easy and cheap to construct. They were may be also to be affordable at the time but they design became unique from the current trend.

12. One of the buildings took a step to modernise the facade.


13. Along the way from our hotel to the bazar are few buildings like Majlis Daerah Johor Bahru with its LED light facade and Post Office.


14. The next morning after breakfast, we proceeded to Kota Iskandar, the new state administrative centre.










 


14. After checked-out we proceeded to take the highway home but stopped at Johor Premium Outlets for lunch and easy shopping by the family.








15. The driving home was a bit harder with heavy rains at certain stretch but car volume was moderate as tomorrow is still a holiday.

16. We arrived home around 10.30 pm after a short dinner break at Sate Hj Shamuri in Dengkil RnR.

Camera: Canon EOS IX Lite APS SLR
Lense: Canon 50mm f/1.8 EF II
Film: Fujifilm Nexia 400 APS 25 exposures

Develop & Scan: Bang Bang Geng at Publika Shopping Gallery 
Process: LR5 (crop n contrast)


1. The film came loaded in the camera.

2. The first frame could have been shot by the original owner or someone who had tried to use the camera before selling it off.




























Camera: Lomography Diana F+
Black Jack
Lense: Black Jack 75mm f/11
Film: Fujifilm NEOPAN ACROS 100

Develop: Photography @ Studio8
Scan: EPSON v700
Process: LR5


1. Experimenting with continuous multi-exposure for half of the roll.

2. The roll came out loose sort of when i let it be but only realised a bit late that it was getting loose more than when i took it out from the camera.

3. It was a lesson to tighten it up immediately if possible to either check it in the changing bag or open it in a subdued light, at-least.

4. This may be caused by slow rotating of the frame for the continuous exposure.

5. It was not that bad since the frame exposure is smaller i.e not the whole film size but smaller.

DIY colour film

processing roller





1. It was a replacement christmas holiday on 26th December 2016 good for a DIY project.


2. Started to work on it from around 2.00 pm and finished around 6.00.





3. The metal roller was bought earlier in the morning which were the smallest size but made of metal not plastic which could be slippery to roll the development canister. 


4. It was a rotating roller type when i could not find the fixed type which found to be bigger even-though they were made of pvc.

5. The size is to be as small as possible to ensure that the development canister is be able to reach the water level in the JOBO hot water tub. 


5. The timber pieces was abundance in the studio/workshop.

6. Each of the roller was fixed with screw and two of them were hold in-place by two nail to compensate the height for neck of the canister which is smaller compare to the body.

6. The other two rollers were faced outward and free to move.

7. Both pairs were then fixed to two pieces of timber plate as base which were spaced apart to allow it to sit flat not obstructing a raised bump within the tub

7. A package-wrap type string were rounded within the body of the canister to be able for a rolling motion.

8. A piece of metal L-angle was screw-fixed at one end to stop the canister from sliding out.

9. The marble in the container was used to hold the base while rolling.

10. This method is less tiring than pulling up and down the string attached to the holding cloth canister. 

11. Next one is how to mechanise the rolling using the existing motor which was able to rotate freely in one direction only but seemed slow and sticky the other way.
