Hi guys,

1st of all, I would like to tell you that im beginner in this field. I post the pictures here to share with you and I hope you guys can give the comments. So that, I will improve my photography skill in future.

My machine is Canon S3 IS. I just got this camera around 1 week ago. Before this, im just using Canon A60 since 2002.

I hope, you guys can guide me to become a better photographer. I really love this field.

During My Holiday in Sarawak - Nov 2006

crap, home! blah..suddenly i'm homesick.. cultural village and sarawak museum(did u see the huge whale skeletal structure? and er there was also an iban pleasure toy if i'm not mistaken ) btw, is the last pic damai?

oh, i din notice about da whale skeletal structure. haha. I juz bring 1GB of memory and just able to shoot 250++ pictures at highest resolution and super fine quality.

Anyway, the last picture is at Holiday Inn.

Just for your information guys, I din edit the picture except the size. Original Size is 2816 x 2112 ..

nice pics there
no need 2 aim photography as a "field" lar
treat it as a hobby is good enuf oredi

then oni u can enjoy photography

what should i do to improve my photography skill?

i think you need work on composition.
try to place your subjects a little bit off center or get it to fill 2/3 to 3/4 of your photo.
need to watch out on the horizon. some of the photos are tilting to the right.
for your perspective shot, you're standing a little bit to the left, leaving the trail of light on the ceiling running to the right. it should be 90 degrees with the top of the frame.
well, these things are actually very subjective. don't be mad at me.

i have no problem with da comments .. I juz want to learn as much as i can .. .. any comment is welcome .. ..

I saw the title & i thought u set up a studio.
And now demonstrating the studio shots.

here's my opinions generally.

- pictures a bit soft, you need to work on this, a soft travel picture really will put people away, u can always try some unsharpmask or contrast tweaking in post process. exspecially u downsize/upsize, u will lose details, bring them back by sharpening.
- most of the picture, has no important/interesting subject.
- try some low/high angle rather than shoot from eye level (i know we always lazy and shoot from eye level).


and btw, welcome to photography, and enjoy them

tq for da comment. . Im getting crazy in this photography world from time to time. On weekend, I will do a short travel around malacca to snap the pictures!!! .. I want to hear da comment later on!!! .. ..

melaka? ohh cool. i will be in Kl this weekend though

I agree with gold3knight and maniac. First of all you gotta improve more on composition. Just shoot more, look at ppl's pic and try to get some ideas from it and slowly u'll improve. And shooting from non eye level would produce more interesting pics as it's from a different angle from how we see things usually.

I like the rain droplets pic in your latest shot. U're improving. Keep it up. Cheers!

like ur papaya tree pic.....outstanding one....
great that u can show to others places near u.....nvr been there...

don't worry about no comments on your shots. I didn't get any response from the people here until about the two thirds down the first page. Just keep on shooting and posting.

Aku suka gambar papaya tree and those taken of the stage show...good colour contrast. Are they taken at this place next to Hol Inn Damai?...the name just eludes me now...something in the vein of "Mini S'wak?"
