wow, sounds like i am a photographer. unfortunately, yes, i do love photography, but no, i don't have (and still couldn't afford) the Rm4,000 something canon professional camera. but still, i just love d fact dat i can capture moments (beautiful n funny ones) of life around me.
u see, photography is a way u show ur own creativity. i guess my family has this talent in our genes because this cousin of mine, he really takes good pictures. (not that i don't. hehehe) photography alows u to play with d colour, d vigor of d situation u're capturing as well as d natural lighting dat we need to manipulate just so we get d best pic. i am no professional in this area but i have my own acumen in remembering details and i modestly admit dat sometimes, i take really nice photos. (^_^)
photos. one thing i love about taking pictures is that the satisfaction of seeing them is continuous and repetitive. just like when u enjoy a painting or a sculpture or any kind of arts. once u frame these pics, they become eternal. suddenly, u'll compare how u looked in the past years. u travel thru time, u take a walk down memory lane, u laugh at all d good moments. in the past, u wore dat ugly braces around ur teeth, n in d next pic, u get a picture of urslef smiling with the perfect teeth any hollywood star or even anyone would die for. u look thin then, but now u look healthier n chubbier (an optimistic way of saying u r gaining weight)hhehe...so much 4 d exaggeration. oh yeah, i have this obsession of editing pictures, (especially using photoshop) making d pics look even better (if no luck, it'll become worse). i find it astounding as i manipulate the photo dat i have taken to become more beautiful. make it nostalgic. make it funky with colours. u name it. i certainly can try modifying these pictures. (^_^)
my point of view? pictures tell u stories. how? depends on how u see it. candid ones are the best to tell u stories and personalities of people. if u enjoy psychology, try looking at photos and scrutinize the body language as well as the level of happiness an individual has in d pic. an observant eye is an added advantage.
say cheese. (^_^) enjoy ur pics.
