Models from Andrews' Models showing off great looking innerwear from Women's Secret. Looks like the secret's out from the bedroom! And that concludes two weekends of fashion shoot which was real hectic with photographers jostling about for a good spot in a small dedicated section of the so-called runway...

This fashion event is becoming an annual event at the 1Utama shopping mall. Showcasing the various fashion labels in the mall, there is also a photography competition involved. Lighting as usual was not ideal and having a flash is essential to avoid shadows in the face. All were shot with only the Nikkor 85mm/F1.8 and the SB600.

Tamron SP AF 17 - 50mm F/2.8

Just got this lens today as a replacement for the Nikon 18-70mm kits lens. This lens won the EISA Photo Award - European Consumer Lens of the Year 2006-2007. Reviews have been good & also referrals from photo buddies who own the lens. Being a fast lens at F2.8 constant, this will come in useful in low light conditions. At this focal range, the ultimate lens is probably the Nikkor 17-55mm DX which is more than 3x the price of the Tamron. Let's see how long this lens remains with me...
