Argh, i'm still not out of my busy week yet. Just had my very first photography assignment done today at the Kelana Lake Garden for my ex-company. Nope, i'm not earning alot but its just for the sake of interest. I'm still learning anyways. Haha. It's been quite a long and tiring day for me and my fellow so called "models". Well, luckily it all went good. Smooth shooting and great people i've met i'd say. Will be going for a second one soon this Friday again at KL area. More pictures on the event will be posted up soon once i've completed the assignment. Do stay tune with me alright. =] Dammit, i'm having a hard time choosing the pictures! Arghhh. Oh, Ta.

Just found out that i still had so many things that has to be done before my holidays end! Crap man, why do time have to pass on so quickly each time when i'm about to chill? Sigh. Anyway, here comes the continuation from the previous post. Presenting part 2! I'm sorry but i have to "chop" it into 3 parts due to the numerous amount of pictures i've taken.

So, let the camwhoring sessions begin.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEVIN!

Photobucket

Just reached home from Laundry, The Curve. Had dinner with my fellow buddies whom some i've lost in touch since i graduated from high school. Haha. Anyway, it's supposed to be a surprised party for Kevin to celebrate on his 19th birthday.

Photobucket

A group shot of us. Had this pic taken at the staircase, we were supposed to be camwhoring cause theres a huge mirror right in front of us. Turned out to be a group shot though cause dudes do not camwhore. Hahaha.

Photobucket
Happy 19th Birthday Kevin Chan! Hope you had a great one and may all your wishes come true! =]

And yeahhhh, guess what we've spotted at Cineleisure as well? The skeleton of our latest model of national car, the Proton BLM! Well, whether you trust Proton or not, i personally feel that this is quite a good car in it's range. I am serious. To me, Persona was a nono but BLM certainly do look good and it is much much more affordable compared to the previous models.

Photobucket

Claimed to be spacious and practical, i guess it's a good buy especially for students at only 30k++. With the 30k kind of pricing, what more can you expect?

Photobucket

The snapshots of front and back part of the car i managed to take. Not too bad ey? The ass looks abit like the newly launched C Class, guess Proton just have to catch up with the latest trend.

Anyway, this much anticipated national car will be officially launched on the 18th of January which is today at the Dataran Merdeka! So lets cross our fingers and see how our national carmaker can make a comeback with their new Proton BLM!

Till then. nights everyone! Will be updating soon again! =]

AMBP BlOGGERS GATHERING : PART 1

Photobucket
Here comes the post on AMBP Bloggers Gathering at Stabucks The Gardens last Saturday. Well, my whole day started off with breakfast at A&W Taman Jaya with Shaz. Was supposed to meet him up a day before at Curve but i was unable to make it, sorry dude. Anyway, it was good meeting up with a blogger cum friend whom i've known for quite a long time on the blogosphere. And of course, thanks for the breakfast. Heh. =]

Photobucket
So after the breakfast, we went straight to Mid Valley to meet up with other bloggers. Then, there we go, into The Gardens!

Photobucket

AMBP was giving out free coffee/tea vouchers for the first 50 bloggers to reach there.

Photobucket

And yeah, i was one of the first 50. =] Theres also a few gifts to be given away for the lucky draw session. Surprisingly, i was the third name to be called out for the draw. Wasn't even aware of it till they called out for the second time. Haha.


Photobucket

Yeah, so guess what i've won for the draw? A cap, few movie merchandises and 2 tickets to the premiere screening for Rambo 4. Nothing much but still, at least theres still something right? Haha.

Photobucket

Hung Wei won himself the same thing too, except that he got a female baby tee instead of the cap. It says there, license to wed. Haha.

Photobucket

So after the draw ended, the camwhoring session begins. Everyone started walking around introducing themselves, making friends and camwhore "kaw kaw". When i mean "kaw kaw", it means that it is seriously "KAW"! Haha.

Photobucket

Wondering how's the camwhoring sessions like? Stay tuned, more pictures will be posted up on the next post. Pretty girls and handsome dudes if you are curious. Haha. Ta. =]

LYN PHOTO OUTING : PART 2

As promised, i'm back with more pictures this time, so here we go - into the zoo!

Photobucket

Everyone checking their maps and fixing their gears for the one last time before checking into the zoo.

The last time i've been into the zoo was when i was in primary six, still remembered that i was following the school trip. 6 years later i was there again, and i'm sad to say that, the zoo still looks almost the same. No improvements and it's still as poorly maintained as it was. Sigh, but who cares. We're here to shoot the animals, not the zoo's architecture or whatsover. So as long as their wildlife's still alive and kicking, it's a good zoo to us. No? Haha.

Photobucket

So, the first stop of the day was of course, the giraffes. It's situated right beside the bridge near to the entrance. Each of us took around 10 minutes to shoot the giraffes, can't get a good shot though cause it was my first few shots for the day, not really used to it yet.

Photobucket

Still the same few giraffes, but on different angle.

Photobucket
Well, i think this is the best shot on the giraffes that i managed to snap for the day.

So what's coming next after the giraffes? You take the guess.

Photobucket
What is this guy shooting?

If you are saying that it's the elephant show, then yeah you are right. The elephants were placed in the enclosure right beside the giraffes. We were lucky because the show started once we finished snapping the giraffes.

So let's go to the show, shall we?

Photobucket

Two little jumbos sitting on the bench.

Photobucket

These guys were on their mission, to snap the best potrait for the jumbos. They looked proffesional ey? Haha. (If you are a shouter, spot Hugo. )

Photobucket
They kick.

Photobucket

They laugh.

Photobucket

And they kiss. How sweet can they be?

Photobucket

The potrait of an old elephant.

Photobucket

Guess that's all for Part 2. As usual, stay tight to your screen for part 3 to
come by soon. Hoped you guys enjoy and of course, comments and critiques are welcomed here. Ta.

LYN PHOTO OUTING : PART 1

Photobucket

Alright! Due to the overwhelming support/demand, i'm here to post on the pictures and stories from my photo outing with fellow LYN members yesterday morning at the National Zoo. Well, my whole day started off with me waking up at 7am in the morning pleading my dad to drop me off at the LRT station near my place on his way to work. All of us were supposed to meet up at the Wangsa Maju LRT station at around 9am. I reached the station at 8.30am and managed to meet up with the few guys who were already there much earlier than me, i was told by them that they were kind of excited because this was in fact the first photogs gathering organized for LYN photography ethusiasts. No doubt, it was my first too.

Photobucket

After meeting up with the few guys, we walked over to the mamak right beside the station for a light breakfast and also to meet up and wait for the rest of them to show up themselves. It was practically the first time i met each and everyone of them on that day, all this while we only had our talk through the forum.But nah, they were so great to talk to and in fact we actually forgot that this was our first time meeting each other. Got to know W.Jie and Jer Leong who's both 16 but has already had their own dSLR. And also this guy, Albert who's quite a popular photographer for the Sony Alpha community. His picture was even showcasted for few events if i've not mistaken. He was showing us his Sony A700 super lenses and this amazing little DIY Olympus infrared dSLR, in fact he korek out the whole lens to fix on this little telephoto lenses. FYI the picture above was taken with his fisheye lens, everyone was like "wooooooaaaaaah!" when he took out the lens. Haha.

So, after doing the headcounts, we made our first step into the zoo. There were 4 cars around and each of us carpooled each other to reach the destination.

Photobucket

Reached the zoo at around 10am and everyone was like getting busy with camera talks and some even fixed their lens to their camera already. Thank god that it was a great sunny day that morning, if not this event would have been called off.

Photobucket

The entrance for the ticket was 15 bucks and because it was a big group of us entering that day, so we got this little RM1 discount each by the zoo officials. Well, 1 buck is still money wert right?

Photobucket

Check this out, the cam of the day. A Canon EOS 40D attached with the Canon 70-200mm f2.8L. Notice that this is the L lens every photographer would have wanted one, it costed that guy (Viking) near to 4k for one. Tsk tsk tsk.

Photobucket

This was Albert trying out Viking's cam. Sony Alpha versus Canon EOS system. Haha.

Photobucket

Camera talk and "poisoning" session. XD And it's Albert again checking out his beercan lens on Sony A700. Tried out the cam abit and man, i was like dammit, if i got the money i'll invest in one straightaway. This is wad we called "poisoning" among the photogs. When you get the feel of it, you will feel so tempted to get one right away. I got poisoned really badly that day. Sigh.

Photobucket

Shoot shoot shoot! Vincent was the organizer of the whole gathering, so after getting the tickets, we went into the zoo, where the whole journey of fun and excitement beginssss.

Photobucket

Well, it's only the beginning of my whole trip but it would be the end for this post for now. Lots more pictures coming up on the part 2 post, sorry i have to break this whole thing into few parts cause of the excessive number of images i've taken. Please bear with me and stay tight with me for the upcoming LYN PHOTO OUTING : PART 2 post. Good night! =]

POISONED.

Photobucket

Just came back from LYN first ever photogs gathering in year 2008 at our very own National Zoo. It was fun and at the same time, "poisonous"! XD Photography ethusiasts, you should know what i mean by saying that this outing is "poisonous". Haha. Anyway, i'm exhausted now. So, stay tuned with me for more photos and stories! =]

NY POKER NIGHT.

Photobucket
Once again, happy new year to everyone out there! Sorry if i didn't reply to some of your new year messages this morning, it was the line congestion that is causing all the sms-ing errors. Anyway, yeah this is how i spent my new year's eve, we had a poker night over at ting's place. It was fun and at the same time great to have all the my old school/classmates gathered around on the same table talking about the good old days again. Credits to Dominic who organised this whole poker night thingy. Hah. I'm kind of lazy to type now so i'll just let the pictures do all the talking. It's in a monochrome series anyway, enjoy.

We had 3 rounds of poker, Texas Hold Em' style. The whole thing ended at around 1.30am and we drove all the way to Aman Suria's Kayu for a little yamcha session. Daryl who's back from UK joined us latter.

Photobucket

It was indeed another great get-together. A night where everyone chilled out together and chat about our respective lifes. It's been 2 years long since we last graduated from high schools. Well, it's great to have this kind of gathering once in a blue moon to make sure we each have an update on each other among the circle of friends. We ciow at around 3am when everyone started feeling sleepy. Drove back, boom, and i'm on the bed. Another exhausting yet memorable new year's eve i've had.


Happy New Year 2008.
