Rescue Rescue !!!! Woof woof ........

There is a lot of publicity on this issue, also there is a lot of finger pointing. All in the mist of us listing to third party's information. We start getting the wrong conclusions.......

I've organised a shoot this Sunday May 24, 2009 and the proceeds of the photoshoot will be used to purchase dog food for the Furry Friend's Farm.

For those who have not been to Pulau Ketam, join me if you have the time. I have been visiting this island since I was a young boy. I do not wish that the name of this community to be tarnished by us all who have not read the facts correctly and information manipulated. Come and see the community for your first hand news and see what great people with simple minds they have lived on this island way way before we were born (for some of us)

Contact me if you are interested to help out, visit the island etc.

Body Painting Part II

This is the continuation of the Body Painting series. This round I had the help of Alison to help paint and Michelle for standing more than 7 hours to let us paint.

Body Painting

My Lastest works for my photography project - Body Painting. I have been always enviuos of the artisan who can draw and design very beautifully. I tried to brush up on my drawing skills but nothing compared to the gurus' around.

All out of passion in my photography and fun, I just studied how the Body Painting artist do thier works and tried to learn by looking at thier finished works. This is my current first try.

Some said it's not body painting because it is a dress... hmmm for your viewing pleasure

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.

Chinese New Year and I became a millionaire

It's the Third day of Chinese New Year. I welcomed the golden OX and bid farewell to the rat. (Rats!, (no pun intended) I forgot to ask the rat for his great cooking recipe)

I became a millionaire overnight (literally). The story goes like this, I'm preparing for a trip to Jogjarkarta thus I had to exchange some currency to Indonesian Rupiah. RM800 gets me 2.3 million Indonesian Rupiah. I'm a millionaire overnight!!

I will try to spend it wisely and keep to become a millionaire ...
