The Mac Revolution..

24 10 2008

First and foremost!
thanks shaz for making me his photo slave for his event! =) that way.. i get free food.. in exchange for photos.. =P hehehe.. and oh! free knowledge of the tech world as well! =)

it’s been very tempting for a number of years for me to switch system to a mac.. i’ve also absurdly know darn a lot about Mac systems and their OS.. but never get to own one.. no money punya pasal la.. =P

let the pictures do the talking.. shall we..

Anyway.. the awesome nvidia graphic card for macbook and double nvidia graphic card for macbook pro’s for needs of saving battery and boost graphic in times when we only need to! same motherboard.. 2.8 core 2 duo max performance.. and glossy screen.. and i would say i like the black sides.. cause it makes me more easy to edit pictures in the dark and in a dark box.. better calibration.. black keyboard.. but illuminated at night..

Cons? when i come home from yam char k? haha =P





KLPF – KL Photo Festival

22 10 2008

KL Photo Festival 2 days streak has finally ended.. phew..
ladies and gentleman..
i can’t believe that now i’m officially in the Sony Double Exposure Reality ‘web based’ competition.. not TV.. checked d.. =P


Sony Website

1st day i was over nervous for the 1st interview.. don’t know how it would turn out.. i mean.. i seriously.. would want to boost my career in photography to another level.. it’s not just a publicity-stunt i would want to pull out for myself.. it’s not what winning that matters the most but experience is the formost important part of this chapter of my life.. i’ve been indulged into photography for the longest time.. and thanks to a few person.. you know who you are.. there are just too many names to mention.. =) there are so much of drama that i’ve went through choosing Sony as my DSLR and this learning path had made me what i’m today.. i stay persevere here as i learn further deeper for my personality in photography world.. learning my identity to go a step further in digital imaging..
i’m serious about this competition.. but i’m taking it easy! =) i’m fun and hyper.. hehe well at least according to the judges.. need to keep this up and have more red bull for the next 2 months from now!

my photography may not be as outstanding Joel L.. Dave Hill.. Steve Bloom.. Jenny Sun.. Louis Pang.. nor any of the professional photographers.. but given time.. and chances.. all i hope is dear lord.. bless me with the knowledge and path for this i’m serious about.. it’s a passion.. and passion.. requires.. sacrifices! and i’m here.. embracing every step that i take and every storm u made.. make me stronger with this heart of mine.. truly sincere in what i’m doing..

i need to thank the producer and the judges the other day to put me into situation on how it would be like in the shooting and when meeting clients.. I went in on Sunday’s 2nd interview a little different from Saturday.. On my 1st interview i was darn hyper.. thanks to overloaded sugar in my system and clubbing the day bfore that.. hahaha =P i was yoyoing all around to calm myself down.. and one judge saw me from the outside as well.. while the other two were inside.. so their expectation of me on 1st day and 2nd day is totally different.. on the 2nd day interview.. i was totally Serious about things.. yea.. “why so serious?” right? haha yea.. the judges were ‘disappointed’ on my lost of hyperness on the 2nd day.. but i told them this.. “When it comes to photography.. i’m serious about it.. and when it comes to meeting clients.. and situation when it needs to be serious about my work.. i’m serious about it.. especially this path that i choose.. photography.. serious is how important i need to win this competition and gain abundant of experience as well.. if i win.. god bless me.. if i didn’t.. this is my path as well.. because it’s my passion.. and passion sometimes needs sacrifices.. and this is my sacrifice.. my time.. effort.. and my life..”
the judges really made an inspiring path for my experience even from the 2nd day of interview.. thank you for choosing me! =) i can’t forget this line.. “congratulation.. you are now confirmed into the top 30, See you next weekend”

this coming weekend is going to be a busy weekend for me again.. zZz.. cause we are required to attend a consecutive 10 hour seminar for 3 days.. that would be from 25th till 27th October.. location is not set yet thou.. still to receive a call from the production company..

Now my alpha 700 is seriously injured and needed to be send to Intensive Care at Mid Valley today or tomorrow.. that one is for sure.. LCD screen officially can’t see a single thing.. sigh.. take care alpha 700.. this alpha is my heart and soul for me.. it’s a blessing..

Fellas out there! =) if i ever need a voting.. please do support me alrite? i need it.. just a little makes a big difference in it.. A big Thank you in advance first! =)

Photo time! =)

I’m number 33.. live live.. just live!
