Photography is always a kind of story-telling and this story is always yours, your view and your experience.
……..
Imagine a photographer, who does very wild fashion photography. This person probably has a total different personality than a photographer of architecture! Can you figure out the desk of both people? The desk of the architectural photographer might be very orderly, everything has its own place there. The desk of the fashion guy? Might be a kind of “creative chaos”. What I want to say with this example: Your photography should fit perfect with your personality. And your personality can increase a lot with photography!

Chatting kadang terinterupsi oleh SMS. SMS kadang terinterupsi oleh telepon masuk. Telepon pun kadang terinterupsi oleh kehadiran orang lain.
Gimana dengan telepati?

The swimming pool at campus was under maintenance until 2nd of January (actually until now the pool is still empty). I have to find other way to let my body active. So, last Sunday I played tennis after for more than 3 months never play it. I was enjoying that game even though my arm became strain after that. I asked my friend to play again in the following day. I decided to practice my tennis skill this week, before new semester started.
On Wednesday night I went to tennis court with my friend, hoped that we can play until late night. Unfortunately, we found that the light control room was locked so we couldn’t turn on the light. Next to control room is squash court. What we did next was playing squash using racket and tennis ball. I was enjoying that game and I felt that my tennis skill was improved. I could control both the movement and speed of the ball. I was sure that I can play tennis better.
Yesterday I went to court and found a couple play tennis very well. Realizing that my skill wasn’t as good as them, I played quite far from them. After several minutes, I couldn’t swing my racket as good as that night. The movement of the ball was correct, but it had less speed. It seemed that my exercise that night was useless. I have to learn how to play tennis from the very basic, how to grip the racket, how to swing it, etc.

I accidentally have 2 Gb thumbdrive with U3 feature now. What is U3 actually? This feature allows us to install software on our thumbdrive. The software that can be installed should be in U3 format. So, we just plug our thumbdrive on any computer and launch any software from it. It’s like carrying our ‘personal computer’ on thumbdrive. Interested about this? Visit U3 website.

I have had my new Sony DSC-H2 camera for about two weeks. However, I haven’t equipped it with memory card. My camera supports Memory Stick Duo and Memory Stick PRO Duo, it doesn’t support Memory Stick and Memory Stick PRO. If you want to know more about this memory card, just visit http://www.memorystick.com.
So, two days ago I went to electronic plaza to get this memory card. At that time I didn’t bring my camera. I bought 1 Gb Memory Stick PRO Duo manufactured by SanDisk. The seller said that this SanDisk product compatible with all Sony products and the price also cheaper.

When I inserted this card and turned my camera on, there was error message said “Reinsert memory card”. I turned off my camera, reinsert the card and then turned on the camera. But I still had the same problem. I remembered that my friend has Sony Ericsson mobile phone. As other Sony product, his mobile phone also uses Memory Stick as storage media. His memory card was Sony 64 Mb Memory Stick Duo. I inserted his card to my camera and my card to his phone and hey…… both were worked well. I guessed that Sony DSC-H2 only support Sony product. I thought like this since I found that Sony battery charger also supports Sony battery only.

So, yesterday I complained to the shop regarding this matter. They tried several times using different card from SanDisk, even they tried 512 Mb Memory Stick PRO Duo. But, the error message still appears. At the end, they admitted that SanDisk memory card doesn’t compatible with my camera. Of course I wanted my money back but I can’t. I had two options, buy this card or buy another good which has the same price. I chose the latter options. Finally, I bought SanDisk Cruzer Micro. It’s 2 Gb thumbdrive with U3 feature. So, with the same amount of money I get storage media which has two times capacity but can’t be used for my camera.

I posted my problem with ‘srgb2lab’ to MATLAB Newsgroup. Two guys from Mathwork, Jeremy Barry and Steve Eddins replied that. Here are their answers:


I followed their suggestion by doing this.
————————————————-
rgb2lab = makecform(‘srgb2lab’);
lab = applycform(rgb,rgb2lab);
lab_double = lab2double(lab);
————————————————–
Here are the results:

Yup, this is correct. I don’t need to write my own function.
