Congratulations.

As usual, the old man forgot to bring along a memory card for his expensive new camera which was bought mainly for this very day.

Congratulations again. Pictures please.

What he did that ? he forgot !
Anyway, well done Ashley. We now know all his shooting pratice did not go wasted. Don't work yourself too hard though, I know the SARS thing must be worrying you.

Yes, about 3 weeks ago he and I were trying out our new toys at the peak. After a good 20 minutes walk from the carpark and the moment we had everything set up nice and well, he told me he left his memory card at home. Remember the gorgeous night scene of the Victoria Harbour he posted on pbase.com ? that was taken with his camera and my compact flash card.

Thanks everyone.

Congratulations!!! First to Ashley's wife who did the tough work then to Ashley who hit Bull's eye with his so called 'Shooting Practice'.
I thought too nobody was reading the forum! I kept my mouth quiet as I talk most along with Lam. Now the nice picture is out I just cannot resist to add a few lines. Well, Ashley remember to bring your own memory and that memory card of yours at the 'Moon Yuet Jau' event. Again, happy days.

What's the name and sex of your number #2?

Ashley,

This is sort of a surprise. Congratulations.

As for your forgetfulness..... Has it already deteriorated to this stage already? Are you simply stressed? Or are you simply in distress? :-P

Hmmm...... look's like you'll be busy for months ahead. Do let of some steam if you can. Kids are adorable most of the time, but they could also be headaches sometimes.

Best Regards,
Thomas

He shoots with his shooting gun;

He shoots with his camera;

He shoots with his ......

But I am not so sure he has hit a bull's eye. Hiting a bull's eye only results in a mad cow with a lot of bull shit. It must be something else he hit to produce such a gorgeous baby......

Right on. Stop the bulls**t about hair or less hair. Answer the following questions instead:

1. When was he born?
2. What's his name?
3. How much did you weigh when he popped out?

OK - Now the only way to lure me back to HK is to get me as his Godfather!!!!! Pity this potential bargain Godfather cannot shoot too well and may carry our newly found Alberta Mad Cow disease as a souvenir! Any one more Q: Is Big Edmund excited too?

Lai Tau and Ding Ding,

He was born on 21 May 2003.
His name is "baby", further "nomenclature" awaits abstract mathematical calculations by Mr. Fortune Teller.
He weighed 6.6 lbs.

I hope he will be baptised in the coming Christmas together with Phoebe here in Hong Kong. Come back together with Jason and you will be his Godfather. Don't worry about the Mad cow disease. No body is interested in eating your brain.

Edmund is not too excited, but he likes to watch his brother sleep, cry and eat. He even offers his precious toys to the baby

Well again...hair or no hair, keep shooting (Ask Toby for advice...he was the champion when we were borders at Mount St. Mary's) and number 3 will be here in no time. God Father or not is secondary, I am truly really happy for you all.

I would love to come but it's very hard to get over my wife's hurdle...seriously!
Hair or no Hair, God father or no GF. I wish the Great Lord will give you and your family all the blessings of the world!
By the way I managed to dig up that old photo taken in the UK of the 4 of us (Ashley, Ah Lam, Ding Ding and Jason Cheung)during the mid-eighties!
I think Yu Shuen (Like Sarn Chai Lo) age the least among us and I must say I think you age most - no offence - the hair factor.
Well you must shoot more (Please consult Toby as he was the champion when we were borders at Mount St. Mary's college)and numer 3 will be here in no time - I have booked ahead to be his/her GF!!!!! My warmest reagrds to you all, Ding

...and you forgot I am a member of the Hong Kong Shooting Team?

Anyway, I must be getting very old. When you get old, you'd love to meet old friends and want to see your close relatives more.

I told Ah Lam how I envy him the other day. His boys are "grown" up (compared to mine) and it seems so far away when l count the number of years before my sons reach Lam's sons' ages now.

Can you scan the photo and send it to me, so that I could post it in our album?

There doesn't seem to be any photo here. Have you forgotten your memory card again? :-P

Hey Ashley,

The DOF of your picture is so shallow that the nose of your baby was out of focus already. What lens do you use? A micro lens or what?

An EF Lens on an EOS body.

An erratic focusing lens on an erroneous optical system.

Lam's right. (I shouldn't have sent him the email tonight about EOS)

I was using a EF 85mm at F1.8 and hence the shallow DOF.

This one was taken with the same lens and a smaller aperture and a better DOF but I like the baby's expression of the last one more:

Congratulations! The two little ones will have a lot of fun playing with each other. My little girl Erika is now 1 and she's already playing with her brother Wayne who is 3.

Ashley, didn't I say I am low IQ and low Tech? I don't have a scanner but I will go to another Wah Yan Tsai's home to get it done and send you a copy. It will be here within 10 years time - guranteed!

This is exactly why I think you should go digital. Do it and I am sure you won't regret it.
