leading a colourful life

Recently, just bought a camera, Panasonic Lumix LX - 3. Hehez, so happy, going around all day to take nice nice pics with it.

Ruyan once asked me, 'why bother getting a semi-pro SLR? you also not interested in photography..'

Hmm... true, i'm not a hardcore photography enthusiast, who carries some dua leng gong DSLR around the earth, capturing The Moment. But just like to have one decent camera, small enough to be conveniently carried around, yet big enough to put whatever i want in the frame!


Today i happily went to the library, wanting to find books to improve my noobish photography skills! Woah, 3 whole shelves of books on photography and none i'm interested in. Surprisingly, there's no book that writes on Casual photography! Haha, yea, i do casual photography, and i think every tom, dick & harry that i know do so! Piang, damn hell lot of topics like photography of insects (how to focus till you can see the many many eyes of a fly), pets, babies, wedding, landscapes, and even a book called, The World of Camera Phone. Ya, and there's just no book which teaches you how to take casual pics, which i like to do!

Me no arty farty cock, just wanting to learn techniques to compose nice pics, yep, capturing moments as and when as i like! Nonetheless, my photos got their own story too!


This is what i meant by casual, happened to meet some people, with a 'click', a happy moment captured!


Hehe, playing my camera at low-light environment! Subjects well composed within the frame.


See, my pics also got direction de leh, or the pros called it, The Way.


My pics even got depth de leh! Got front, got back! Extracting the colours, emphasizing the subject.


Capturing the shag moment...


The road that i walk on everyday... night scene of hougang ave 9.


Phua got bored waiting for the young ones to finish packing their bags at Sheng Siong... yawns...


I like to eat this!


Place that i had visit.

Diary to my daily live, its like writing history, things change, people change, the only thing that remains is memory, putting what we went through everyday, in a time-capsule, stored in a random drive in our PC or Facebook, to be extract and read.


Lastly, for the good memories that i had with the people around me.
