Hello everyone!

First thing first a bit of introduction about me, I'm a student from KL currently studying in Cardiff, UK.

Photography wasn't a big interest to me before I came here, I do have a slight interest in it because I made sure every shot taken with my smartphone is presentable and knew a few basic knowledge eg: rules of third, aperture, shutter speed and so on. However I wasn't interested to go in depth, and spend money on a camera to do so.

Once in the UK I realised my smartphone couldn't cut it anymore, I need something better to showcase what I see, and I wanted to make sure every moment is presented in the best possible way especially since I have only 3 years to spend here. So I went ahead and bought my first camera, hence the real beginning of my photography journey.

What I shoot and wanted to specialise in? Generally street, travel and landscape photography. I wanted to do some portraits if there's a chance but imo better to focus on a few areas first.

A few links to my galleries:

Instagram - Fastest and most frequently updated

Facebook page - After Instagram I will usually upload high res shots here

Website - My blog/website and main online portfolio. Will upload when there's any photos that suit the categories, or a project/album. Blog will be updated after I'm back from a trip, or just random stuffs bout photography (journal).

Flickr - Probably the less frequently updated, I only upload here to share on ext sites eg LYN. Will try to catch up.

My gear - Sony a7 + SEL2870 kit lens + Konica Hexanon AR 40mm f1.8

Photos edited using Capture One Pro 8, and sometimes Photoshop if requires stitching or blending.

Will start sharing my latest shots here, the rest can be viewed from the links above.

C&C are most welcomed! Wanted to learn more from sifus over here notworthy.gif

Nice. Perhaps the 2nd photo will look better in B&W?

Thanks smile.gif

I've thought of B&W before but I feel it's better to show the colours, otherwise people won't know it's autumn

Easily the best shots from the whole topic, not that all the other shots are bad, just that they are not as interesting smile.gif

Thanks!

I'm still working on subject and composition, I feel it's the hardest to master when it comes to photography

thanks for the feedback!

I did tried to place the sun in the centre, but too bad my lens is not wide enough, if i centre the sun I would lose the mountain, that's why I go for a balance
