时间在流动

Just another shot from this very popular vantage point. 2 minutes exposure. Noise gets kind of disturbing especially in the shadows..

走到最后

Let's end with a bang.

恬静小海湾

It’s been a looooong while.. almost 1 semester since I posted a picture on this blog. Strictly speaking, this picture is too normal.. normal sky, with a foreground that’s hardly a beach. But I just wanted to mark this day. I’ve just submitted my final undergraduate project, and am 1 exam away from getting my first degree. It’s been a long way..

Looking forward to my freedom.. and more photo shoots~

The new Dawn

There are predictions that there will be no 2013, so is this the last picture of the series?

The number of posts on this blog has been dwindling. Just 10 posts this (last) year! Lol. Well.. the number of posts is inversely proportional to my stress level.. So you know the reason..

Probably the most hectic University year so far, each semester having 2 projects to contend with. Even my summer break was spent on internship. And it may just get worse..

Despite the lack of time, I’m glad I’ve learnt 2 new shooting methods. Firstly, the Brenizer method, giving me the ability to create achieve very shallow DOF images without new equipment. Secondly, my “secret sauce”, giving me the ability to make more realistic HDRs like the one you see above. The number of hobbyist photographers have certainly increased this year, as shown in the photo… one must constantly learn new tricks to stay ahead.

All the best in 2012! And STAY ALIVE!

‘Tis the season to bokeh-ing~

Another brutal semester has come to an end. It’s a great relief to go out to shoot again. I’ve always had such images in mind whenever I walked along orchard road, especially when the Christmas decorations are up, and I’m glad to have finally learnt how to create them. Happy holidays!

No, I have not bought a new lens. But I learnt a new skill. A method so awesome I have to applaud its pioneer – Ryan Brenizer. He calls this the bokehrama, but people coined it the Brenizer method. Either way, I’ve been trying it out for a number of times and am now ready to talk more about it.
