Locked Up

I try to talk to you, but I don't know what to say. I am afraid you don't want me to say anything. So I don't. But inside of me there are words waiting to come out...

And tell you how I feel-like how I miss you. And how I love you despite my broken heart. And how I need you in my life. And especially how much I want you...

But those words may forever stay in my heart-locked inside. Sometimes I wonder if there are words locked inside you too... but I'll never know.

Shelter

Still another photograph taken in Ragunan, the shelter in HDR...Hope you guys like it.

Your comments and critics are welcome...Thanks

Wrecked

This is my first time using HDR effect on my photograph. Still need to explore more. Hope you enjoy!

Me in IR Effect with Photoshop

IR effect in photography has been quite popular recently. In order to get an IR effect, you need an IR filter attached to your camera. However, the filter is somehow expensive. No need to worries, there are a bunch of tutorials on the web to get an IR effect using Adobe Photoshop (if you are willing to find them ;p). Below is one of the examples:

Ragunan Zoo

Last weekend, I went to a local zoo in my town with some colleagues to photo hunting. We agreed to meet up at the office 7.30 am, sharp. Sharp? Not really, eh...I over slept for I played pool on the other night. Heheheee...Ragunan Zoo is the cheapest recreation place to spend yer weekend. Okay, no longer pushes from me...here they are:

My Award

Today, when I checked out my blog, I found a comment from Amaryliani Sukma, one of the blogger I met recently. Thanks for the award, pal... ;)

However, she has some rules in order to display this award on the blog. The rules are as below:

1. Thank and link the person that gave you the award.
2. Pass this award to 15 bloggers you’ve recently discovered and think are fantastic
3. Tell the tagged blogger and let them know they’ve won the award.

Seven things about me??!! Hmmm...Let me think . . . .

My Lovely Mom

Mom, you're a wonderful mother,
So gentle, yet so strong.

The many ways you show you care
Always make me feel I belong.

You're patient when I'm foolish,
You give guidance when I ask.

Dave Hill Effect

Here is the first attempt on creating the 'Dave Hill' effect...

The result: FAILED!

Tumplek Blek Event

Last Sunday I went to an automotive event called "Tumplek Blek" in Senayan. Since I have a limited knowledge in automotive, I just did a photo hunting. I have divided the photo gallery into some parts. This I call Part 1: The Vehicles. I might add some irrelevant photos later on the next parts. Here are the results: (no photo editing, only re-sized)

Sweet Couple

This is from my old collections. I remember the male character is myself, left arm bandaged for I broke it in a futsal game. LOL...

For the female character? Hmmm...I forgot,,or pretending to forget?

How to Change Label Name

This is my first post in terms of blog tips and tricks. I decided to make the blog tips because there have been many requests from friends to customize their blog. I hope in the future I could give more useful tips and tricks to optimize other blogs. Let's just start the first tips.

Today I'm gonna give the tips on how to change the label name of your posts. Let's say you have a bunch of posts with the label name 'My Blog' (label name is taken from my blog) but you've decided that you'd rather call it 'My Diary' instead. You can edit the name of a label directly from each post (as I did before I found the trick - it took me a long time to change only one label), but there's a simple workaround to accomplish your goal:

1. Go to the Posting --> Edit Posts tab for your blog.

Stop Motion Project

This is a two-hour stop motion project created by my young brother. This initially was his cinematography assignment from his school, but I stole it from his folder and put it here ;p I thought this is cool. Simple and meaningful...

Innocent

f/5.6 | 1/60s | 55mm | ISO-560

She is my little neighbor. If you look closer, you can see her face was scratched when she was playing with her toys.

Waiting for the Sun Rises

f/10 | 1/400s | 24mm | ISO-200

The grey begins to fade,

As colour creeps from leaf to limb.

The light is slowly seeping up,

From beneath the earth's curved rim.



The sky blue strengthens slowly,

Glazed with hues of orange and red.

Slowly as the earth revolves,

The sun lifts up it's head.

Where is the Beach, Mommy?

f/5.6 | 1/200s | 55mm | ISO-200

The idea was coming from a discovery channel telling that the population of sea turtle is gradually decreasing. On this photo, I want to emphasize everyone to save the sea turtle from extinction.

Below are some critics and comments from other photographer to this photo:

Want an Apple?

One of my experiments...It's kinda difficult to get the perfect DoF for I just use the kit lense. :( But I like the soft composition of this photo.

First Shots Using SLR

Heheheee...This afternoon I bought a new Digital SLR camera. Below are the pictures taken with my new cam. Can't wait for my first hunting... :D
