Chang's Bday

It's been a while since the last update, tailou-Hooi and tailou-Chang already started to get impatient... hehe... :p
I have been busy on the video editing thats why, even now also haven't completely done... :(

Ok here's something from the celebration of AhChang's birthday not long ago...

My little confession:
Guys, I know you were counting on me for the photographs of that day...I have to say sorry for dissapointing you with lots of crappy photos which you going to see the next second...
The first set was due to the unfamiliar used of flash with LCA, ended up all over-exposed with the slide (even I already set it under 3 stops!!)...
The second set was using the expired film so you can see a big amount of softness and grains on the photos...It's still kind of nice though and that was my intension but I don't know if you guys can accept it... whatever! You guys not gonna kill me, will you?
BUT! Luckily we have some nice ones from the Fisheye! I really like how the color turned out with the red flash! And all the expression... is damn funny!! haha!





The girls: "LOMO? outdated lah! Now people uses HANDPHONE~~~"





Look! Jaymee's signature expression....kekeke



Chang: "Ain't I the birthday boy here!!!???"


Look at my finger, the famous-on-camera-posing again!


Now, the 'dessert':
Introducing the stars of the night!

Jaymee!

Wei Wei!

Xiang!

Ermm...birthday boy...

Dek... @@ disgusting!!!

Hooi...hoho! I like this one!

Ok...I know they will definitely kill me if I don't include this... OK! That's me!


Girl team.

Boy team.

Nice food...

and best friends!

Another Win from LOMO!

There is an international photo competition called "Who The Hell Are You?" organised by Lomographic Society and Urban Outfitter going on this month and each week the jury will pick the 30 most amazing photos from the entries, and the winners get to win a brand new LOMO camera.

I didn't manage to enter the first week, so I started to participate on the second week. And when the second week's champions have been announced yesterday...

Hakka Documentary - Part 2

Continue with the stills from Penang. Using Afga Precisa CT100 slide, nice one!

*click on the images for larger size.



Oh I just love this shot! It's like a gang of ganster just finish killing then walk out from the building and.....BOOMMMM!!!




Ok, this is the most pretending but coolest pose you can see from any production (because every director or producer or DP whoever found themselves aimed by camera will pose like this). Here's our version, the pointing finger + michael bay's framing pose.


Supper time! Fried chicken skin (is that how we call?).


See? A very helpful director! Help me fixing the lens...


Again. But this time we spent some money to get a car as a set just to make the shot looks more professional...and it really does! Don't you think so? :p



Even Temple's Ah Pek would do it infront the camera! Now you believe?

This is the shot that won me the Lomography Home of The Day Award!! Thanks to Ah Pek!



This Ah Pek is an one lonely old man who looks after a temple in Penang. I can see he is really lonely because when we visit he appeared very excited and talk non-stop! Poor Ah Pek has a little place which is very old furnished... faded print wall... full with old photographs and posters... It's a really a cool place to look at and everyone kept taking photo of it!

That's it!
The complete set is at [HERE].
More coming up...
