GEOMETRY:ROOF CURVATURES


When I was an engineering student in early 70's,I used a drawing board, set squares, rulers and French Curve for my drawing class work. To draw a curve,I use a French Curve. Nowadays, the student uses AutoCAD - just click, copy and paste.That is an easy part.The difficult part is how do you transform those drawings into curved roof ceiling,trusses and walls?




My architect friend has a simple way to do it.He just put a small note-To Engineers Details!That is where engineer's nightmare begins.


At my golden age,I am not bothered how to do all the engineering stuff. Now is my time to enjoy the beauty of curvatures wherever they are and capture them on my camera. Later, the good photos are selected for sharing at my Facebook and blogs.


One of my favourite 3-D Roof Curvatures is at KLIA.Every time I am at KLIA, I will take a photo of it. Usually, I will include some human elements to make it more alive and interesting.

This is at Amsterdam Centraal-the city railway station. I love the shape, span and colours.

KB WALK

I planned to have four days of Photowalking around Kota Bharu #KBWalk ,but due to unplanned family errands which I love doing for my  mother and son,I only managed to have two days with only less than 4 hours.Herewith I shared two photos taken behind Pejabat PAS. To do justice to the town,I need at least 7 full days and nights to capture the history  and culture of the place.My first attempt had revealed a lot more for me to explore,discover and capture.Another missing dimension I need to have with me before I embark on KBWalk is the history of Kota Bharu. It has to be another time..May be after Eidil Fitri.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MY IPHONE 14 ProMax VS FUJIFILM XT20

No camera is suitable for every occasion. Here is a simple comparison. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and I love both. When I go photowalking with friends, I use more smartphones than the Fujifilm XT20. FUJIFILM XT20 iPhone 14 Pro Max (Smartphone) vs Fujifilm X-T20 (Mirrorless) – Image Quality Breakdown IPHONE 14 PRO MAX 1. Sensor & Processing iPhone 14 Pro Max Uses a 48 MP quad-pixel sensor that down-samples to 12 MP by default; ProRAW unlocks full 48 MP output   . Features Apple’s “Photonic Engine” that enhances detail, color, and low-light performance via computational photography  . Produces excellent detail, color accuracy, and dynamic range—especially in daylight; however, images sometimes show over-sharpening on foliage/glossy textures  . DXOMARK cites strengths like vivid color, wide dynamic range, sharp detail, and low noise; potential drawbacks include clipping highlights and noise indoors  . Fujifilm X-T20 Features a...
