Model Photoshoot

Tuesday, October 31st, 2006

attended a photoshoot training few weeks back..

it is basically ‘Basic Understanding of Flash" class taught by the light-meister Mr Ted Adnan

he taught us basic understanding of how to use flash , multiple flash set up , all type of lighting - rim , main , fill lighting and also how to take photos of model ( in this case it is ms Soup )

the class was held at azrul’s studio 807 at AmpWalk - quite a nice place i wish i have my own photography studio like that..

here are some of the pics from that session ( masa tu dah la tgh ramadan! hehe kuatkan jela iman :P) - click on the pic for bigger sized version!

Daylight Fading…

Friday, October 20th, 2006

Yesterday i was looking through my mp3 collection..saw this song by Counting Crows..

Countingcrows

I’m have always admired Counting Crows, back in the days when Alternative was the ‘in’ thing (remember the flanel shirts?), they came out with their single Mr Jones - a very nice fast tune folky type of rock song..

 

this particular Daylight Fading song also has that americana touch to it.. :) do give it a listen! here are the lyrics :)

Daylight Fading by Counting Crows

Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
I am waiting for the telephone to tell me Im alive
Well I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
Its getting cold in california
I guess Ill be leaving soon

Daylight fading
Come and waste another year
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs that daylights fading
We leave just before its gone

She said everybody loves you
She says, everybody cares
But all the things I keep inside myself they vanish in the air
If you tell me that youll wait for me
Ill say I wont be here
I want to say goodbye to you
Goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye to everyone I know

Daylight fading
Come and waste another year
All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs that daylights fading
We leave just before its gone

So on the topic of ‘Daylight Fading’ here’s a collection of my sunset/sillhoutte photos taken when I was in Dubai last May :)

The Creek is the river that separates the Old Dubai ( where you’d find the Souq Market) and the new part of Dubai. You can take a boat to cross the river for a mere 50 fils ( about lima posen RM)
