Mid Autumn 2009

▲ Mid-Autumn party in the new house, TAIPEI, OCT 3, 2009.
This was the first time that my parents and relatives had a mid-autumn party in my new house. It was also the first time that I took pictures for my family. The place was on the roof. It's a good place. My uncles, aunts and their children came together. It reminded me of some old things. I felt a little bit down.
At that night, I developed the film by myself.
某種程度上來說,沖底片跟煮咖啡,心態是很像的。不見得自己動手結果就比較好,其實享受的是那個DIY的過程,就像拼圖一樣。

It was lucky that Yin, daughter of my aunt, birthday was the same day. We celebrated her 24th birthday. She majored in piano and graduated from music college last year. Now works for music institute. I have never listened to her play. Her mom told me something about her current job. It sounds that music career is not a smooth road. Hope she has a bright future.
Below are pictures taken on color negative.

Am Ende stehen wir zwei

當年紀越來越長的時候,才會發覺自己可以依賴的人事物越來越少,算一算,不過就是一把尼龍弦吉他、一把大提琴、以及一台徠卡相機。
It's not smooth for me since new members joined this group in early August. Here comes three people to our dept.. It looks like nothing else but in fact the amount is more than half. I was surprised that my admirable ex-colleague quitted her 10+ years job just because she would like to take a rest. Her official statement to us was for her parents. But I know that was not the real reason. I suspect that my ex-leader and I advised her on career plan several months ago. It may cause her much thought. And after a while she really did it.
I, (or I should say my fortune), fell into deep valley after that. It does not mean she and I have some relation. Actually I do not think she played a important role here. But it seems that I got a huge mistake. The most important thing in work is personality, not ability. I finally know that. So I need to jump over trouble water.
A nice friend told me a interesting job tonight. The candidate must be required to have business trips to Latin America. It sounds good for me. I have no concern. As I said at first, when getting older, I finally discover the truth. Only a nylon guitar, a cello and a Leica camera accompany me. It seems not to be important for others. Maybe. Am Ende stehen wir zwei.

20090916-0927 - The Tour / Back to the Beginning

The changeable, overcast sky in KaoHsiung was strange beautiful, just like my mood. After Germany Headquarters announced three new products on September 9th, we followed the stream to hold user experience activities in Taiwan on September 16th, 19th and 27th. The activities are held at Taipei, Taichung and KaoHsiung.
One of the three new products is LEICA M9. This is the best, absolute awesome camera in the world. Even if I do not work for this company, my thought will tend to this. For those who have never used rangefinder camera, they may think it is just a expensive toy. SLR photographers never know how RF photographers love to frame the decisive moment. RF can let you look both inside and outside the frame at the same time. It will help you do some important things that SLR cannot be done. I have said this at launch event. I don't have to repeat the cliche here.
I like RF style. I like my M6. Everyone who often comes here know all my pictures are shot by M6. In fact, I don't like M8, the first digital M. It's not a mature product until M9. 18 megapixels, Full Frame, acceptable high iso noisiness, best lenses, best image quality, smallest dimension, what else do you expect? A dreamy camera.

I believe professional, semi-professional, and amateur photographers will embrace the old, classical photography style. Time will be back to the beginning.
Here are some casual shots taken by me from September 16th to 27th. It shows funny moments on the backstage. I'd like to thank all of my colleagues for cooperation.

20090911 - Eating with ex-colleagues
It has been a long time since we contact each other. After eating, we went on singing. I carried the brand new digital camera to test in the low-light environment. It's amazing whether shooting color or B/W pictures. It seems that I do not need to shoot with analogue films in the future.
There were Elisa, Iris, Sky, Mr. Wang, and 2 girls in the group. I'm weak at singing. So I only drunk and experience the mood, When E asked me "Do I enjoy current job?", it made me falling into thinking for a while. Actually I do not know how to answer. It is hard to say. Even now I'm under great pressure.
