I thought I will see portrait...

err... i think u miss out 2 portraits there..

Not sure how to critic, but I liked your photos, nice color tone and the photos looks clean.

Can teach me how to snap this kind of photos?? Haha

Thank!! haha.. if u in Penang than we go outing together so we share share our knowledge togethe, i am just beginner..

Since you asked for comments and criticism, here goes:

1. Most of your pics are very normal - very snapshot like. There's really not much to hold viewer's interest.

2. Pic no. 5 holds promise but the shot is weakened by the black swath around the top of the frame that adds nothing to the pic and is kinda distracting.

3. Subject is too small in the frame in pic no. 7. Try a closer crop by leaving out some space on the top and right side of the frame.

Overall, still ok. Shoot more and try to think about your shots before you take them. Think about how you want the actual end result and try to get that. If you have no idea how you want your pic to be, it shows in your photos as sloppy and vague.

Noted on your comment. I will take it seriously.. Hope can improve within shorter time

I guess my main point is that I have noticed that a lot of newcomers to the DSLR scene think that by just having a big, expensive camera with premium lenses attached to it will get them better pictures.

This cannot be further from the truth. So you have a f1.4 lens and can easily render bokeh in your photos. Does that alone make your shot a good one? Bokeh does nothing if you picture fails to show anything.

The process of making a picture goes like this:

1. You first must have an idea of how your picture is going to be in your mind. You must have a clear idea of what to take first and foremost before you even pick up that camera.

2. Once you have that idea, then you try your best to match your gears and resources to produce that mental image in real life.

3. Do the preparations and shoot.

4. Review and re-shoot until you are happy with the result. Your end result photo should match as closely as possible to your mental image.


I find that if I shoot without any prior ideas in my mind, I do not even like the pictures that come out. So your mental image is important. Hope this helps.

Agree with you. All photo actually comeout exactly my mind. Maybe I need more creative to create even better photo. I tthink before shoot and not spaming shutter.

enjoy how depth of fields are presented in your images and how u capture the whiteness, the light. bravo!
enjoyed the composition of the images shown here as well.
good job these works!!

Thank you for compliment.
