Well, I'm pretty new in the field of photography, looking for some guidance to improve my skills, although I'm still using the most basic point-and-shoot cameras..

Anayway, just signed up for a free flickr account and still in the process of filling it with some picts i've taken. Do check my flickr account (check siggy) and give me some comment and tips.

----------
A few photos available at the moment:


"The Keys"


"The Pagoda"


"Airport Exit"

Note: Some photos are heavily post-processed

More updates..

Below are a series of photos taken during my trip to Penang during May 2007..

dude...you can take real nice pics...but dunno how much is edit how much is self take...no matter what...the end result is still...very very nice...

There's nothing much to improve actually ... 10% photography 90% software. All you need to do is get to 99% software and 1% photography and you're on your way to creating superb images

or the other way around
100% photography
0% PP

ac98...then lidat is kinda cheating ler...coz you rely on the software too much...tak penduli the exposure and everything...take already...when reach home then edit...

i smelt sarcasm.... bob, d pagoda pic, try to avoid those disturbing branches.. d exit pic, nice sky, but not sure how original it was... uhuhuhu... s sinchan mentioned, try reduce PP s much s possible. gudlak~

Well, only a few of those "artsy" photos are heavily post processed.. others like the one from my trip to Penang had either virtually no or minimal contrast/level adjustment.

Thanks for the comments anyway, going to post more from my past trip to Penang island..

The first flower photo's highlight (flower) has been clipped. Try to bracket your exposure next time so that you can merge them later in PS or choose the one with correct exposure.

From one photo noob to another, nice job! I find it hard to compose shots that don't involve people/portraits... your penang "khoo kongsi" and "the golden days" pics are nice examples of what I'm trying to accomplish.

Hmm.. thanks for the suggestion.. I guess I have to do with a manual exposure bracketing cause my point and shoot doesn't have auto EB..

Thanks for the comments.. but sometimes I find that with some cropping, it does make the composition of the photo better, on the whole..

P/S: Those two pictures are taken with my motorola z3 camera phone..

the second pic should move towards your right so that can have a clearer and further view of the pathway
