Now

Welcome to my Now page, a unique space where I share what's currently engaging my attention. Unlike the more static "About" page, this page offers a window into my current world.

Here, you'll find out about the projects I'm involved in, the subjects that intrigue me, and where my passions currently lie. This page is like a snapshot of my life's priorities and activities at this moment.

It's an up-to-date glimpse into my journey, reflecting my latest interests, goals, and endeavors. This page is where I openly share what's important to me right now.

After some thought, I decided to move away from Sony’s full-frame system and try the Micro Four Thirds (MFT) system. The change has been a game-changer for me—it’s lighter, more portable, and fits my needs perfectly. Here’s the gear I’ve added to my setup:

  • Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II
  • Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO
  • Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/2.8 PRO
  • Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-100mm f/4 IS PRO
  • Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary
  • Meike 50mm f/0.95

To expand my creative possibilities, I’ve also picked up a few exciting tools. The DJI Air 2S drone lets me capture breathtaking aerial shots, while the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 has been a fantastic companion for stabilized footage on the go.

It’s been a refreshing experience diving into this new system, and I’m excited to see where it takes my creative work.

Davinci Resolve Logo Luminar Neo Logo Affinity Logo

I've recently transitioned from Adobe's subscription model to more cost-effective tools. I'm now learning and using Affinity Photo, Designer, and Publisher, which have proven to be excellent alternatives. For photo editing, I’ve explored Luminar Neo, and for video editing and effects, I’ve replaced Adobe After Effects and Premiere with DaVinci Resolve Studio. It's been refreshing to embrace these new tools and workflows.

Musically, I've taken on the challenge of learning "Only Time" by Enya on the piano. This beautiful melody offers a tranquil respite from the daily hustle and allows me to improve my musical skills in a serene and enjoyable manner.
