Suppliers Secrets

As we are into photography these days, we all want to earn some form of income from investing in the camera and lenses that we have. I will give you sine insights to how some pictures are done, how they are made and where to get props, where to buy stuffs and suppliers who has the items.

Stay tuned...................

Blank !!!

There comes a time where our brains just refuse to work and there are times where our brains are working full speed not able to stop. I guess I have been in both the modes since the beginning of the year. Mentally and physically the body is not able to cope. What happens next?

The body will shut down even if you are still conscious. Anyways enough about my rantings.....

I'm to set a personal challange, a challange of 10,000 hours. It says 10,000 hours to perfection. Currently I have done over a period of 5 years in photography most likely minus off all the eat, sleep, sh*t.. that does not leave me much productive time.

I am hoping by the end of this year I can come out with a series of pictures that concepts I have thought of out of a box. Not the conventional pretty model pictures...........

My endavour now starts for me to crack my brains in location , theme, techniques, time, and most importantly cost $$$......



This was something thought of when I was doing some homework for a shoot. What will happen next ......

Indeed was shocking news to the Arts world including myself. I was just chatting with him not too long ago. He still jokes and we still laughed about some daily affairs.

On my last visit, I brought my friend and collague Michelle to his home and we met up with Sim as well. After we chatted, Ib & Sim brought us down to his home studio and showed us some of his latest works.

I was to get back to him on a silk-screen pattern as he wanted to do a piece on Barrack Obama. It was really shocking news to me that he is gone.
