LOL INSTA-ART




My lousy PS skills couldn't bring out the best in this pic




Whoever said the 1 series didn't have noticable noise?

Looks like a Crow, but it's actually a Currawong. Veli Photogenic birdies

Thanks Thanks. Don't get much praise so i'll take it when i can

Yeap. It's very unfortunate that i know shit about film. But my idea is that since backgrounds and clothing are mostly darker than faces, by creating a stark contrast between the subject, clothing and environment, it makes you focus on 2 things in general, the face and the action at hand.

I also use the contrast to blur out details with oversaturation of black or white, because i want people to look at the pic, not the pixels.

Being very honest with anyone i'll say i still suck at PP lol.

OMG more crap!







I have better pics of the stars but this one has a tree in it to give an idea of size, the others don't


My probable entry for the BHP Billiton competition with an "Outback" theme, although if you ask me it's a little boring...will try harder to get a few good shots worth sending in aside from this one.

Visited Brisbane for a shortwhile today. Did some shooting near the ANZAC monument and Adelaide Street.

Tried Dragging the shutter on this one, but the lady wouldn't stay still long enough. Anyone good in PP is welcome to help me bring out the trails of the moving people













I usually hate emo kids. But i liked this one

Took my camera to Friday prayers (where don't i take the damned thing lol)

I call this picture, Faith. As a Muslim one must believe that the Quran is the ultimate source of guidance for life, in a way, Nur, or light, so i tried to give the light coming through the windows more weightage and made the rays more obvious to pass along the message better.

I haven't shot in a long time, but here's some new pics i just took on my East Australian 4000 km road trip lol.

Best part? Downgrading from 1Ds Mark III kit to Nikon D60 with kitlense.

Taken on the New England Highway. My car, "Parrot Killer", named due to fact that i hit a whole family of the flying beasts with 2 getting lodged in the Radiator and 1 in my Intercooler, the rest were turned into tyre paste lol. Engine bay was also filled with feathers. Car Survived fine, birds didn't.


Taken on a bus from Kingsford. Goddamnit why are bus tickets so expensive?


Even birds like to enjoy a good view once in a while





Photographer on a photographer. Note he's using a Sigma. Gaaaay.


Whachu looking at Asian?! lol


Shot ruined by bird, but otherwise pretty ok if you ask me.


Random bird bird shot.


Makes you wonder about she's wondering about.


Tower in between Towers.

Shot ruined due to dirty lenseeeee. But otherwise fine lah.


Si beh tahan already, so take rest lah


I wish i were still at an age where i wasn't as morose. Kids are easily excited, which is lovely if you ask me.
