Hihihi… jangan terkejut baca tajauk kat atas tu. Salah satu bidang fotografi yg popular masa kini adalah Street Shooting atau Bahasa Melayu nyer Foto Jalanan. Rule of thumb mengambil Street Shooting adalah mengambil gambar dalam hitam putih, menggunakan 50mm prime lense & tidak menggunakan flash/speed light. Walaubagaimanapun, terpulanglah kepada fotografer itu sendiri mempraktikkan jenis lense & medium yang ingin diambilnyer.
Bagi saya, street shooting adalah salah bidang yang amat mencabar kerana fotografer perlu berfikiran kreatif untuk menceritakan suasana di sekitar kawasan yang diambil. Semasa mengambil gambar jalanan, kadangkala fotografer juga perlu berkomunikasi dengan subject untuk mendapatkan gambar yang dihajati. Apa yang menarik, kawasan yang biasa kita lalui setiap hari, berjaya diolah oleh fotografer menjadi satu cerita yang menarik sehingga kita tidak terfikir mengenainyer.
Pada 10 Januari 2009, saya telah mengikuti satu acara yang telah diadakan dibawah komuniti fotografer www.duniafotografi.com. Aktiviti adalah yang pertama yang dijalanakan oleh duniafotografi.com sejak ditubuhkan dalam bulan November 2008.
Lokasi; Depan Stesen Komuter Kelang Selangor
Ini adalah aktiviti kami setelah selesai program.. hihihihi

Welcome to my blog. I will tell you all about my photography's works & why I really like taking photo. I still consider my self as a student of photography.Currently, I'm learning photojournalism, travel photography, street photo, wedding photography, and many more with my friends. Through photo, I believes that it is one of ways to tell people stories. In a photo, we can find lots of stories. It is up to the photographer how to write it.
Photography has been part of my life since I was in secondary school. My first "on field" camera was a rangefinder Yashica Electro 35 with 1.7A 45mm, belongs to my father. The camera produced magnificent pictures which until today I still admire. The camera has served me well. I used Fuji films occasionally because it is producing outstanding color. Moreover, most of the pictures taken were printed on Fuji's paper, which I found it produced realistic images. Until now, I still believes Fuji is the best.
My first SLR camera was a Minolta which I bought in 1997. During that time, I only know to operate with automatic modes. And it is difficult to find or attend any photography classes and the classes were so expensive.
New era of Digital SLR (DSLR) has made learning photography easy and fast but still an expensive hobby. I have stopped my hobby for years since I don't have places or friends to share or to learn. Back in 2006, a friend mine, who also my ex-officemate Azim, showed me his wedding photographer’s website. I went to their website and I found their pictures were very astonishing. I was so impressed, even I visited their website everyday. Since then, my interests in photography have “rejuvenated” (I don't know whether it is the right word). I also attended my first photography class(which Azim also has introduced to me), from there I met peoples who have same interest with me.
Currently, I am using Nikon cameras a D90 & a D40X, with Nikon speedlight SB600, Nikkor 55mm 1.8, Nikkor 55-200mm VR 4.0, Sigma 10-20mm 4.0 and Nikkor Kit Lense 18-55mm 3.5.
From time to time, I will update you my most recent works (unless my clients/friends/anyone prohibited me to do so). Enjoy my works and please feel free to comment...
