Our good friend at Negative Effect has got his photo blog up and running now. You will probably remember him from the Gulf Run videos/photo’s as well as other photo’s from different events. You can check out the website for more of his amazing work. He uses many different camera but predominantly a Canon for his photos. Enjoy NegativEffect.

Another blog out of Kuwait to be proud of. Keep up the great work.

The pics after the break are from the 360 mall GulfRun car show. Click below to check them out.

The set up was great, there was a DJ with nice music and lots of booths for most of the sponsors as well as the GulfRun booth selling their merchandise along with raffle tickets for the 2 Vespa’s. Our great friends Marzouq from Zdistrict was there as well as elwehbi from thegulfrun blog and brakebanzeen among others.

The following photos below were all taken by a 2 and half year old boy. This was his first time using a camera and it was a Nikon P6000, he is currently looking out for job offers.

I saw this canon-like Courvoisier Cognac bottle in a random store with lots of old and vintage stuff. I regretted not buying later actually because it does look pretty cool. I also found some really old wind up record players that still work which was also interesting. Click below to see the rest of the pictures.

These are supposedly vintage/antique Afghan guns. They did have some engravings with some weird scriptures on them but you can never be too sure. There were many different sizes and kinds of guns in this shop, as well as coins and other Afghani items.

With Avatar hot on the heels of Titanic as the number one grossing movie of all time, does it mean these classic “bufak” chips (or bofaki as written on the packet) will be replaced by ones with characters from Avatar in the near future? I wonder what Kate Winslet and Leonardo Dicaprio would think of their snack!?

Last but not least, in the “bishts” section i found this men’s jacket/bisht with its very original tiger/jaguar/cheetah print. Sorry about the hazy picture but if you notice in the top right of the picture, the owner was looking at me puzzled as i was autofocusing for the snap. But seriously, Denzel Washington would have looked much better in this than his Chinchilla in American Gangster.

On a more serious note, i enjoyed it and might actually go back in less than a year to buy some classic/vintage junk.

Ever dropped your cell phone in water? Ever had to replace an iPod because of battery problems? How about spilling liquid on a laptop? These, and many other everyday nuisances occur to us all the time. And we usually end up fully replacing the ‘defected’ object. But wait, I read this article on MSN and it seemed very helpful for alot of these problems. Even stuff like reviving a stuck LCD panel are included. Check out the article right here.

Random Information of the Day : So there was the dotcom bubble, then in Kuwait we had the Sushi bubble and currently we are experiencing the cupcake/cookie bubble. But did you know that our last “bubble” (sushi and sashimi) is in the top 5 list of most foods to contain parasites? Some foods to ponder over here.

I was planning to get me a DSLR for some time now but had no idea where to start. After reading a few reviews I knew I had a winner with the Sony A350. It has a tiltable 2.7" Live-view screen and the resolution is 14.2 MP.

I got it with the 18-70mm f3.5-5.6 Standard zoom lens for $900. So pictures from now on will be taken from this baby.
