Review: Nokia Lumia 800 – Windows Phone 7

April 10, 2012 / Technology / 0 Comments

Nokia sent me the Nokia Lumia 800 a couple weeks ago. And I have only one word to describe it: wow. And that brings me to the end of review. Kthxbye. The Amazing Nokia Lumia 800 (more photos below) I kid. True to Nokia’s roots, the Lumis 800 has excellent built quality. It just feels…

My friends have been intrigued by aura reading lately. One of them found a shop tucked away in a mystical part of Singapore that takes photos of people’s auras for just $5. My aura on Feb 4 (left). My auras on Feb 15 (center and right). I’ve had my aura photographed 3 times so far….

I recently saw some phenomenal shots from the Fujifilm X100 and it rekindled my passion for photography. Since the X100 is totally out of my budget, I decided to get a prime lens for my Pentax K-x instead. So say hello to Pentax DA 35mm F2.4 AL! Shooting with a prime lens is so much…
