Doggy Shots at Home

Recently, I spent some of my time playing around with Photoshop features. Just took a few photos last few days at home and applied some Photoshop edits.

Hardwicke House

Last Wednesday, I was having a food review at Hardwicke House BBQ & Buffet Restaurant (next to Northam Tower) together with FoodPromotions and some other floggers from different food blogs.

Hardwicke House BBQ & Buffet Restaurant

It has a few separated dining areas and private rooms that are able to accomodate for groups of 10 to 100 for social functions, reunion dinners, birthday parties, weddings, etc.

Dining Area

Hardwicke House is offering lunch buffet without B.B.Q. at RM18++ and dinner buffet with B.B.Q. at RM38++ from Monday to Saturday. Buffet on Sunday is charged at RM20++ for brunch and RM38++ for dinner with B.B.Q. while kids eat for free (limited to 2 kids per family, below 10 years old).

Buffet Area

Salad Bar Servings

Main Buffet Servings

Desserts

For coffee lovers, the restaurant is serving premium coffee as well (not included in the buffet).

Premium Coffee

The restaurant is serving red and white wines at RM8++ per glass, Tiger Beer at RM6++ per bottle and freeflow of ice lemon tea / soft drinks at RM5++ per pax for buffet diners.

During the review, we're served with Friulvini Verduzzo IGT. It is an aperitif wine and it goes well with first courses, confectionery and fruits. Then, Terranoble Sauvignon Blanc 2005 was served with main courses. This is a fresh, dry, well balanced wine and has intense fruity aromas.

The last served wine was Schubert Hardwicke Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2002. It exhibits an intense nose of blackberries, plum and dark chocolate with notes of walnut and spices.

Teck Heng & Helen Wedding Reception

Next, this post shares some of the Teck Heng & Helen's wedding reception photos.

I made some minor edits to all the photos below, trying to create a different feeling like what those professional photographers do. I lowered down the color saturation and made some adjustments to the level. Thus, some of the shadow details are lost.

Anyway, do appreciate comments from you guys on the editings that I made.

Teck Heng & Helen Wedding Day

Shooting a wedding is about telling the story through a series of photographs. 15 Nov 2009 was a big day for Teck Heng & Helen and I was one of the photographers on their wedding day. Woke up at 4am, I started to shoot the story till the whole ceremony ends.

Here, I would like to wish Teck Heng and Helen a Happy Marriage and a wonderful life!
