oya... while i was showing my friend where/how to shoot for the milky way, he asked me is that "band of cloud" the milky way. i told him, it's not really possible to see one in singapore but as i get more dark-adapted for the next few mins, i really thot it could be and i used my fren to take a shot and voila, there is it, the milky way band!

this is from my cam.
