LoveLive! I m LoveLiver!

Since 2013, I fell in love in a anime called LoveLive!

So hard to describe why I so like it cause the story line is no special as science fiction, funny story or anything else.

It just a normal school story with those 9 girls hope to rescue their school that lack of student enrollment, the 9 girls try the best to become the school idol which is famous trend in the story world to attract more student enrollment into their school to save and prevent the school from abolished.

The final stage in the story is LoveLive! , which is a big competition for many of school idols present their talent as singing and dancing as idol.
The 9 girls (group name : μ's) finally become the most famous school idol in whole Japan.
Ok ... This story actually is about a dream, a hope, that nice thing can learn from it.
I m not a good story teller but I just want to say I really fell in love on this anime.

As a fans for LoveLive!, mostly people will call "LoveLiver" (not love your liver means).
And actually most of LoveLiver also love those characters voice actor, cause those voice actor are singing and dancing just like the characters in anime， it is totally synchronize ! Those voice actress already held few times concert in Japan.

I buy a blu-ray of the anime movie version, inside got a code to get a lottery of ticket for FINAL LOVELIVE concert. Yes, it is final this year, and I decided fly to Japan to join this concert.



But unfortunately, I can't get the ticket, and the ticket are selling super higher price in Yahoo auction Japan which I can see almost 150,000 yen is a normal price.

No choice, then what I should choose ? We got choice of live streaming in theater.
No choice ...... this anime are too famous.

Next month I will fly to Japan again, because the power of LOVELIVE! and I m a LOVELIVER!

That's all =v=

Star photograph

I like the star on the sky at night.
Some star are hiding and our human eye won't able to see them all.
So that I m using the camera, to find out how many stars are hiding from our human vision ......... ok, I know stars are uncountable, I m just talk nonsense :P

What I try to photograph is hiding in the dark, that's why I need to make a long time exposure with camera shutter. As long as the shutter open to let the light going in the camera sensor, as more lighten thing will appears in photo.

While shutter make a long exposure will make some moving object trace or something like light painting things ...... Earth are rotate in every second, so the star will become line while long time exposure such as 30 sec (max limit on default setting on every camera), that's we called: STAR TRAIL.

So that I have photograph some star trail testing.
Photograph below are shooting on December 2015. 
 
Star trail 160 sec, on the bottom captured the flight passing over.


Star trail 500 sec, focal zoom to 50mm


A test shooting with close up object, i forgot to use high aperture setting to make foreground clear ......


Just stars 58 sec shutter.


Star trail 500 sec without zoom focal 16mm.


Above all the photograph are shooting around my house, that area still got lot of light pollution so that I m going to a beach at night to test.

For first time shooting in the very dark situation, the image no good as I aspected.
 And some of the cloud are disturbing ......

Before going to beach, take a look of the sunset without sun on hill.


I get the star with higher ISO, but you can see the cloud is it ? So disturbing !




Next time hopefully can shooting without cloud at this shooting point.
Oh ya, the location is somewhere very South place at Penang Island.
Looking for chance to going there again in future.

That's all ~ =v=

Bought some small equipment

Some how I see some web shop got promotion of clearance stock so I buy some little equipment. 

Such as image below, a small LED flash fill light, in box description is write: for selfie ...... lucky that I won't selfie cause if u use this thing to selfie, will make u blind for a second.



I pick some useless packing plastic and make as diffuser, soften the light from this LED.
Some how the result is quite good as I aspect.

I got just purchase the SEGA prize figure LOVELIVE! Minami Kotori from Singapore shop so I decide to use it as a test. Here is the result.

After that I decide to use back my old camera SONY NEX

Cheap toys from some low cost market

The beginning, LOVELIVE! Start dash // Bandai S.H.Figuarts

and finally I test on Dollfie Miku

good result for interior lighting, but not for exterior. The power of LED no enough for exterior light (except night)

That's all, gracias
