Let's get a new...


Whatever it is, that statement means something old must go. Is it really unusable? Have you made an effort to ask if someone else is willing to take in that non-so-new furniture?

On assignment: Fahrenheit @ indoor stadium


When some people decide to name themselves after a temperature scale, I should have expected them to play it hot. But... not THAT hot. Read on to find out more...

It's over... all over.

What a luxury it is to be able to doodle on 1 photo for the whole night =)
Read on if you have such a luxury too...

Bankruptcy - Some people just don't care


Humans create their own problems. Let them die for all I care. As long as the sun still rises tomorrow, I will be here to embrace it.

In the Field: Elva @ Max Pavilion

Yay it's mid term break, and I was sinful enough to go out to shoot. Should have been revising for mid term tests, but the lure of a concert shoot was just too much. Quite last minute notification (but i was guilty for not bothering to ask around). Just picked up the cam and go! More after the break.

In the field: Sodagreen - 陪我歌唱

Woots.. my first concert shoot! One of the most adrenaline pumping 10 mins behind a camera, other than shooting a missile launch of course. Read on to find out more...

In the field: Gigi @ Tampines Mall

Once in a blue moon I do get the chance to go shoot for WanBao. Their articles usually have more readers. Might be a good chance to gain publicity =) One such opportunity came in a form of a last minute call to shoot some HK celebrity who happened to be in SG. More after the break...

Mum i've been shooting: 抢麦08 portraits and performance

The Qiangmai season has been a very good opportunity for SYD members to experiment with portraiture. Every season, we are required to come up with publicity portraits of top 16 to finalists. Photos aren't used in major publications, but we still strive to produce our best. Where can you find so many free models anyway?

Mum i've been shooting: 文化营08 @ DTE

This happened to be my 3rd multi-day event, the 2nd being 迎新 which was a flop. This was the first time we produced a proper slideshow on time =D Of course this represented a significant improvement in our workflow, especially since we have 5 photogs on site. Click on to find out more.

Mum I've been shooting: 专访

I'm not good at working with people. Much less shoot them. It will take quite a while before I reach the strobist standard, but I'm lucky enough to get opportunities to practice.

Mum i've been shooting: 通讯员 internal camp 07

My first multi-day super assignment came in the form of a 4d3n camp. Both equipment and operator were taxed to the limit. To me this is the perfect endurance training.

Mum i've been shooting: In the SPH auditorium

Many activities take place within this auditorium. Problem is, the lighting is usually crap. Ceilings are 3 stories high, and walls are colored and dull. Bulbs are all tungsten tinted. This is the place I learnt how to light indoors.

Mum i'm out shooting: KWN finals presentation

This is the first of my "mum i'm out shooting" category of blog posts. After looking through the many articles we published during the entire work year, I realized that though not all of them have spectacular images, there is always something substantial gained for every assignment I took. It'll be a waste not to share these experiences, and hopefully these posts will serve to document the footsteps I've taken to better my skills.

Fisheye landscapes #3

7 exp HDR

No other lens could have gotten me this shot. I was only a meter away from the trunk. This lens is built for photographing trees =D It can even do IR! (one day i'll mod my d70 for this) Just be sure to keep the horizon in the center to remove the distortion.

Yet another fishy walkabout

Bear with me... i just love to see the hexagonal light bursts from this fisheye. Best of all, there is no flaring even when pointing at the sun!

Warp my world

5 exp handheld HDR

In case you haven't notice... the above image is way wilder than usual. What happened? Make a lucky guess =D

Le Grand Finale

Behold the bringer of light - We stared in awe as the sun blazed through the cool morning air, waving us goodbye with a spectacular lightshow. What a way to end off this beautiful trip!
