test shots

it is test shots, I did some touch on photoshop. and I did it in 2 different vers.
monochrome - photo filtered , and full colors - sharpen edges.

facebook has reduced the quality of the one that I just uploaded here is the ori-vers.

multiple shots 1st attempt

the good ol'days ? no. well since last night we have none of works to get on with, then we came up with some new stuff, so now we had the time on experimenting it the new way that which we never did before - group action shot with using strobe. don't even mention about " action " even a group shot we're kind of dealing with sort of problems , back and forth we shots bunch of photos for one only scene. why would I say it takes time 'cause if we take one single shot for the entire group, lighting will come out really awful, then we take one by one, so what we will get the completely perfect lighting, guess it's the matter that we don't have the big lighting set-ups, well, then it comes to freezing high-speed action parts, is still a big question mark for me though... but we'll work things out. instead of keep on doing same thing over again, I guess this'd be real fun.

12-gauge

it is like my first time ever taking closed-up shots ( well it's not that very close-up ) but anyway, first I don't intend on taking any close-up shots that day, I was there taking some sunrise scenes, but 'cause of the sky doesn't came up good, as what we expected. I took a walk along the paddy field, I did some shots on the flowers , and then surprisingly I found a bunch of 12-gauge shotgun shells along the way, i wonder if they used it to shoot paddy stealers ? ( hope is not to take down the photographers who were trying to take photos of his paddy ) p.s : I'm only using 18 - 55 mm vr nikkor lens.

Natalie | the hope

perhaps we should start this from last saturday, it was a serious black saturday, we was suppose to did the shooting on saturday afternoon, but the sky doesn't seem to getting any better ever since at the morning, the unstop raining really gets on my nerves that day, stops and back again until the next day, sunday morning, but fortunately everything slowly gets better at the sunday afternoon, while we are heading out to the location. even it still do look kind of hazy though on the sky, but I insist to head to the location and see what's really going on, I ain't gonna wasted another day, another time again. we have passing by several locations around the batu ferringhi and teluk pahang. we was planing to get to the small beaches around teluk pahang area will have no strangers come to disturb, but the sea level increased after the rains , and the most terrifying thing is the waves that able to get higher around 5 feet tall, like it's my first time ever I seen in my life, and the entire tiny beaches has got covered up. well anyways, we got our spot on the first location, is at the Tropical Spice Garden , then we changed to another location is on the batu ferringhi beach. thank God for not let it rain, and we able to go on well with our photo-shooting and able to finished the first season without any heavy obstacles and thanks to Natalie for her help, I'm really appreciate that. here you go, on the top is couple test shots and progress shots, the final pieces will soon be done, then I'll need start arranging for the second season.

Tukun hill | Shann

we was suppose to photo-shoot at the St. Anne church today, but when the time we took out our stands the guards came toward us that we was told from the guards that we cannot do any photo-shooting in the church or anywhere around the church unfortunately. so we changed to tukun hill some where near by, we cant go far 'cause the time is running out,and infact it's getting late though. we have very short time today, but it goes quite well, and don't get wrong of the first piece, I like the way it is, but it is not the final pieces, I just took it to use as an example. anyways, thanks to Shann for her favor, and I should head to sack right now, tomorrow still got one more photo-shooting to go
