Haaa......itu yg fuji claim la......cakap hebatnya filem production diorang...betul ke? Salah 1 filem yang boleh dikategorikan sebagai filem exotic. Nak mendapatkannya memanglah susah. Aku dapat filem ni pun daripada member Photo Malaysia bernama Jason, itu pun dah expired punya. Mula2 terfikir jugak, berbaloi tak aku beli filem ni, dah la dah expired....tapi memandangkan aku dah jadi penagih filem ni, sapu je lah labu......hehheeee.... 1 roll aku sumbatkan dalam Nikon F3 aku untuk captured scene hari raya kat kampung aku. Selepas develop, aku balik rumah terus scan dan hasilnye...? aku sukeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! Tone & contrastnye sgt cantik pade mata aku. Aku cuba jugak captured under low light conditions, dan ternyata filem ni sgt syiok digunekan pade condition yg gelap2 nih.... itu baru yang expired..kalau yang fresh....tak tau le aku......sape2 yang tak try film ni lagi, pergi la cari...*grins*



daylight test...

low light conditions...stim kan color die....?





A Calm River

A Calm River
by Myrtle Thomas


On my way through this life
Fighting my way through toils and strife
False loves and friends too
And feeling happiness and feeling blue

Time I guess, found me one day
Feeling hopeless and wondering is this all there is
Childhood dreams and working hard
To find the things I'd dreamed of


But lost in a world that pasted me by
To strong I was, I guess to cry
But I gave in, and found myself in a calm river
Ever moving through my life, and brings solice to my soul

Always moving calmly and smoothly
But washing over me
And as I listen the water says, be calm dear
For the CAPTAIN will care for you

Moving along at its own pace
And ever moving with such grace
Picking up passengers as it rolls
And the river refreshes our souls


I have a fountain on my porch
And the water flowing there brings peace
But it makes me recall the day I found the river of life

Pengkalan Pipit, Perak

Some Lousy Snapshot

Bosan dengan program raya kat TV (balik2 org menyanyi jek...kalau sedap takpe) aku kuar cari-cari gambar area kampung aku. Walaupun dah berape juta kali aku pusing-pusing kat sini, mesti ada benda baru yang aku jumpe.... some of my crappy snapshots to share with u guys......

sarip shoot macro @ bunga...? ahahaha....paklan punya pasal la ni...damn!!!

kalau aku rajin memang aku buat frame ni..kalau rajin la....
shot ni aku captured masa di Pengakalan Pipit. Dulunya org Kampung Beng guna bot utk cross Sg Perak, itu la satu-satunya jalan penduduk kampung nak berhubung atau nak beli barangan keperluan. Tapi sekarang dah ade jambatan, but still most of the org kampung use boat to cross this river... and the best part is... Petronas Raya ads? yg bawak balik lembu seekor utk mak diorang buat rendang? ADs tu shoot kat sini la....

salah 1 aboandoned house di Kuala Kangsar, Perak. Rumah ni kalau di jaga balik, memang awesome....sayang takde yang nak menjaga balik rumah ni....



Raye Datang Lagi

Raya datang lagi tahun ni, masuk ni dah 2 tahun abah "pergi". Tapi setiap bende ade hikmah, aku beraya lagi di Kampung Danglang Perak dengan 1 suasana yang agak pelik. Pelik? Memang pelik, keadaan meriah tak ingat punye..... Opah aku punye la sprting ya' amat. Bangun pukul 11 pun dia rilek jek.....kalau zaman aku bebudak mau dah kena seliang 2 kalau bangun lambat ni. Tahun ni jadi sejarah pasal aku dapat tender bakar lemang...hahaahhaa...!!! dan yg bestnye, lemang tu tak hangit....success sungguh...!! Ngahahahhaa!!!! dan yang best part lagi, malam sebelum raye....aku, adik sedare aku, pak chu ngan abang aku bakar peha kambeng...







saliva drooling....:P


Lepas solat aidilfitri, aku shoot family portrait aku sendiri..... layan kan kejap, pasal ramai org datang beraya.... rendang daging 10 kilo pun abes 1 hari jek....mentedarah kuat gak org2 kampung ni......
seminggu aku kat kampung.... takkan nak shoot gambar raye jek kan..... jadiknye...? aku keluar la cari gambar.......ntah ade ke tak.... tak tau le....

Faces of Kuala Sepetang

Howdy,

Since sarip so sucks taking model portraiture....i think i will give up on that...maybe i will do things i like the most (thanks to damak for the influence) environmental portraits.......

I went to Kuala Sepetang last couple of months ago to visit the charcoal factory. It was an awesome place to shoot. Then i meet Pak Yamin the supervisor in 1 of those charcoal factories. He was kind enough to show me around and explaining to me the process to make those charcoals...believe me...it wasnt easy.....




After i have a nice chat with Pak Yamin, i took a look around to the other factories. Then i saw a young boy doing his stuff....i approached to have a chat with....when he saw me the camera, he quickly ran to get his shirt....eehehhee...

Then the conversation started. His name is Ridhuan...just a part timer during weekend. He's helping his dad to get extra income to cover for his tuition expenses. Still at Form 4 tho.... (kinda ironic to see teenagers in KL spending their parent's money in Bkt Bintang while Ridhuan working to support his study).

For RM 1.00/log,he has to cut this log to 2 pieces, then load it to the processing oven, totally using man power.

So kids out there who wasting your parent's money....go figure!
