Apungan

Aku kebosanan..smalam petang aku bawak kamera ke luar rumah, duduk di tepi jalan..dan tunggu...tunggu...tunggu untuk kete lalu...nak try buat panning shot..

Punye lah lama tunggu, tapi yang lalu budak dgn basikal, dan makcik bwk anak jalan2, 2 subjek yang klu buat panning pon, tak ummpph...

abes nyamuk geget, feasting on my bare arms and ankles...
frustrated, i went back in..mebe its the holidays, sebab tu tk bnyk kete lalu kot...

Pagi tadi got a message from Toyek, apparently ade drifting event going on kat Stadium Shah Alam..

huh..

0_o?...

.....

0_o?!!


*kaching2!!!*..opportunity!!!! even though the clock wat showing it was high noon, matahari terik tak hengat, i still wanted to go!! biarlah klu terbako sket kulit, bile lagi nak jadi hitam (I putih if u tak tau)..miahahahhaa

Went for a shooting session with Eton and Kong..Toyek followed on suit slightly later...it was my first attempt doing panning, so the first few were either overexposed, or underexposed, or just rubbish...took me a while to get the settings straight..with the high heat and the smell of burnt rubber, rili started to get on my nerves when pictures din come out right..

anyhoo, here are some of the pics taken, unedited as ive just gotten them in the comp, mebe later tunite ill put em thru photoshop..



























































this post is just a heads up, ill edit this post later on, adding on the exiffs and stuff, God Willing..

Another happy session

Remedial..and refreshing..

Its nice having hungry happy people over, people who uve not seen for a while..and have them leave at the end of the day full, and happier than when they came..hopefully..huhu

Today had a slight makan2 jamuan thing, a sort of meet up among friends..instead of the usual mamak where we would get together and have a chat, the venue this time would be my humble home, where I would try my best to dine them, and make catch up on watever things i can..

Ade yang makin kurus sebab intern, ade yang dah rambut start panjang, ade yang nak mule buat rambut jambul..ngahahaha...
yeah, blame it on the mamak for salah potong all u want, but still look like hero hindustan laa!! miahahahaha!!

anyways..enuf with the talk, time for some raw pics!!

Another entry for the hols..happy CNY Malaysia

Senang betul nak kemana2 due tige ari nih, cukup senang.
Jalan yang kebiasaannya padat dgn kenderaan kesana kesini....kosong...

well, not fully kosong, but I can say that i was cruising to work yesterday, instead of the usual crawl...arrived at work 10 mins earlier, walaupon kluar rumah lambat..

aih, if everyday was like this...id get better sleep, and id save more on fuel..definitely..

The advantage of having the roads so clear is that ley jalan2 tmpt2 u usually dont go to, just to know the roads..arent many cars, so takdelah ur suddenly stuck in traffic jam+salah jalan+sesat..

take a joyride perhaps this weekend..hmm..not a bad idea..

Its a 4 day weekend, so for those working away from home, or havent been home in a while, its a time to travel back to their hometown..lepas rindu kat katil sendiri and makan free+sedap kat rumah..hahaha

Teringat zaman skolah rendah dulu, pantang cuti je, balik kampung (in Kelantan in case ur wondering)..distinctively remembering that i like going back because it was different..and because the 8 hour drive back was entertaining..
We use to have this cassette (some youngsters nowadays dont even know what a cassette is) of the late Sudirman..we would listen to it, over and over all the way to kelantan..

the classic

"Balik kampung, wo 0h oh balik kampung!!"

and theres this one song about the alphabet..i forgot what it was called..but we sang our hearts out!!!

now it seems, like we jarang balik Kg..its the grandparents yang come to the city during breaks..huhu, udah terbalik..

i for one, have turned into someone who has very low tolerance for long rides bek to kg..;p
8 hours seems like forever..aih..
I want to balik kg, dont get me wrong, but id rather it not be by car, if flight ke ok sket..cepat..

gler demanding!!..

yeah, mebe i am kinda demanding..hahahahaha

nanti, when i have kids..time cuti2, balik kampung kire will be in Subang it seems, this will be my kids kampung..kan?

different to the kampung vision i had, but hey, times are a changing i guess..


got three more days of golek2..its been a while since i had a good sit down with some buddies..

0_o?

*light bulb*

Lets have a look shall we?

First of all, Happy Chinese New Year to fellow Malaysians~!!!!

Lets get things rolling now...

In case u people were wondering...

Yes, i have bought myself a new camera..yep2.

and

if u must know..its a Sony A200....

and yes... i went to buy at Sg Wang

yes, alone...

in case u people were wondering....thats all...;p



so, with a lot of my money spent...how do i feel?....

must say, feeling very happy..finally..its been a long long wait..

it has been months of looking thru the net for reviews...rummaging through forums for opinions..hours spent at shopping malls asking the kedai this and that...even went to Youtube to look at reviews....
yes..this wasnt a decision made on a whim...its weeks of browsing and reasearh..so much so that if i was in the field of medicine..i could've found the cure for the common cold or something like that...

before i was into only post processing, mostly with other people's shot and pictures..
then the need to process my own work was aroused..why? because i find that to stave of the urge to do some serious photoshop-ing, i need to take my own set of photos, and work on them, rather than wait for others...

so here are some few shot taken with my new cammy, and please be gentle as they are only test shots done at home..

Langsir shot in my room




















Dad's car logo..trying to test how close i can get in and still focus

Taking it for a spin outside a bit.picture of the laman.like the colours it spat out..


bear in mind these were simply snapped...not a thought went into composition, exposure bla2..so yeah..its pretty ordinay..

now to officially take it for a day out....sape nak join..kite tembak orang buat Dragon dance!!!!...

but where ek? ;p

____________________________________________________________________

Just my humble opinion...

I'd like to mention here, that before one would buy items of great value, or items that would cost a lot of one's money...it would be best not to rush things..take it slow...think it through..do some research...avoid going to the shop and buy on impulse..most often than not, u'll end up regretting it because it wasnt what u hoped for or u were just swept away by the moment..shopkeepers have a way of making u feel that ure making the right choice then and there..

Electronics for the most part has tons of reviews on the internet..so do ur homework..or ull end up with a gadget u regret owning..
