35mm f/1.8 or 50mm f/1.4?

I am deciding between Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 and Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 for my Nikon D90 camera. The 35mm is good for everyday use, I was told. The 50mm is good for portraitures, events, and in low light condition. I have been in contact with my photographer friend and he told me he's using the 50mm and really likes it.

The 35mm, on the other hand, is good for landscapes and travels. Since I also like to do landscapes and travel, I am now confused on what to get.

Getting into the forums and reading the user reviews is kind of enlightening. It's always good to refer to other people's experience before hitting it off. This is just one of those days that I am grateful that with our high technology nowadays, the information is just at your fingertips. That would also include the getting info for
term life insurance quotes online. Indeed, internet makes our life easier.

And so, which one should I choose? The 35mm f/1.8 or the 50mm f/1.4?

Picnic @ the Park




I promised the kids we would go on a picnic at the park again after they woke up from their afternoon naps. They were so excited. We did this yesterday too. Good memories we had. Just want to keep them entertained while the hubs is away. The good thing about living in this area is that we have two parks we can go to. One is in front of our house and one is somewhere near the entrance of our housing area. So the kids have a choice where to go. Today, we walked to the park near the entrance. They like it there better.

The kids miss their daddy heaps. We're planning on going somewhere else for a break when he comes home. Maybe we can get one of those thule roof racks so we can bring our bicycles. I'm wondering if we could go camping somewhere nearby. It would be a great experience for the kids too.

Sunway Pyramid


It has been a long time since the last time I took photo of Sunway Pyramid, my favorite mall. When my friends from Vietnam visited us, I took them there. It was going to be dark. But I guess I had a perfect lighting. The white dot on top of the image was the moon.

Guess I should jot down my exif info as well:

Focal length: 18 mm
Exposure Time: 1/40s
Aperture: f/3.5
ISO: 1600
No flash

Accidental Shot

I was playing with my manual setting and got this shot. I thought it's not really that bad.
