Candid Snapshots

Hello there! And now TanteiAmethyst are back for more fun! =D

We spent a day of testing my new  Canon EOS 550D. Hmmm... should we give it a name too just like Shinyuu? Tantei and I just couldn't sit still with the cool stuff around. 

One thing peculiar about our household is arrangement. Just look at the alternate brown and green shades of pillow cases! Vivid blues and greens in the CA shooting mode did the trick. 

The same shooting mode was used in this pic. It accentuates the greenness of the table cloth and gives the table a more woody effect. 

Just look at those tiny bells at the bottom. This candle holder looked very elegant and those red balls were caught on cam beautifully.

It might be weird enough to see a Greek-styled vase and an antique camera displayed together. 

For close-up shots, it's better to have a blurred background to make your subject 'pop-up' and stand out. 

This chandelier is probably one of my favorite things in the house. It's classy and it looks close to those I could see in ballrooms. 

A cup of love? Anyone? I must say I owe this cup of cappuccino to my sister Jia and her artistic skills. I tried to make a smiley face but it ended up like a frown.
