Assalamualaikum.

It has been quite a while since i uploaded photos here. I kinda took a really long break from photography due to unmentionable reasons. For those of the viewers who were waiting for updates i apologize for the delay. I wanted to thank u for not giving up on waiting for my works since i actually was at a point of retiring photography. InsyaAllah i will try to get back on my feet and start shooting again =) and upload them here.

P/s: just to warn u, my photography skills might be a little rusty.

Photography

2009-02-18T13:42:00.000-08:00

As an "in" thing or a trend nowadays in Beloved Brunei, photography gets me thinking. what is photography, who are photographers, why do people do photography...

Surprisingly, photography has grasp interests of youngsters. It got me thinking, y all of a sudden? trend? talents? interests? something to spend money on? fame? popularity? or just simply a thing to play with? why did i start photography?

i dont remember being interested in photography a while back but i was into art, i didnt realy know what photography is all about. but one thing i remember from the past, when i was a kid (primary 2 or 3) i always bring disposable film camera to school function, the teachers always ask me if i bring camera. now i realised i do have it in me but i just couldnt see it earlier. i dont really know what i like about camera, why i like to shoot, why i do shoot. i just nvr realised it until one day... Hafiz' father asked me that i should try photography since i do art. n then i started thinking n i tested myself. i went to the garden with my sister's nikon bridge n shoot from different angles. i was satisfied and i showed to my family, i got positive comments and so that kept me going, after that i just know that im just in it.

but one thing, if youre a new photographer and u have a DSLR, use it to the fullest, snapshots suits better with compact =)

im just jobless n im too lazy to edit shots so membual tah saja nah since my blog bnyk sudah pics n less bual lol

salam,
mumu

photographers comment: iso too high hence the noise...im not satisfied with the slight blur on the wordings =( unedited version (straight from cam). i opened it in photoshop just to convert RAW to jpg. FYI this wasnt really photography, just a lesson i did X) like antam2 to understand more ^^

i just realised that now im using less and less photoshop =) which i think is a good sign. looking back at my old photographs i cud see improvements, i was heavy on photoshop before n now im still learning more to improve and to get the best out of my cam before i purchase any additional lenses.

Assalamualaikum,
today im posting high key photography. its quite hard having to take my own portrait lol but i managed to have few quite satisfying shots with the help of my tripod n wireless remote =)
hope u enjoy my not so good shots, comment and constructive critics r very much welcome as im still new in the portraits area.

photograher's comment: im not really satisfied with the second shots due to my eyes, as i can only see 10% of it...n i dont like the copping either, it was abit too tight i think...

backdrop: A4 paper lol :P

The necrons: an alien race ancient beyond imagining, are awakening from their sixty-million year dormance to plague the living once more - for the galaxy is ripe for the greatest harvest

The Imperial Fists: were one of the twenty original Space Marine Legions. Their primarch was Rogal Dorn. This loyal legion was later re-organized and divided into chapters according to the Codex Astartes. They are known for their supreme siege abilities and are the loyalist counterparts to the Iron Warriors. They are known to be some of the most loyal marines to the Emperor and Imperium and their standing with many of the Imperial institutions is unparalleled due to their willingness to come to their aid.
