That moment...yes that one..yeah the one when she smiles, or the one with his eye brows raised when he got that present...or the scene of a man in a park stroking his dog...u get the flow, u see what i m talking about...
there's something about taking photos n me...it drives me nuts....its becos i have an eye for detail n always seeing things in a different way.....somehow rather these things have landed me to take photos...perhaps then, people will see what i see...LOL...no i m no stalker, no paparazzi...just some one who loves the odd candid shots...yes thats the word, candid shots...
Its not like i dreamt of becoming a photographer in the deep forests of Amazon or in the icy cold north sea...NOOO...to think about it, it was only like a few years ago i got into photography, i guess at this stage i should thank some of my frens...yeah...those were the folks who lent me their uber expensive cameras to capture the mind blowing scenaries of the Scottish Highlands...that was when i too got my high :P
With the invention of cameras on mobiles, every Tom, Dick, Harry, Appu, Ah Beng, Ahmed, Jose, Juan, Emanuel, Michael, Smith, Yoshi can talk about taking photos. There's nothing special in that. What I am really into is gals, LOL. What I am really into is taking angle shots...ok those perverts whom r thinkin i m taking angle shots of girls skirts...get lost..go get ur fix from a porn site...not here...anyway,talking about angle shots...i find them as the best of photography becos they tend to bring the best of human facial expression and behaviours...not only that, even the view on a object from a different angle, gives the object a whole new look. If you dont get what i mean, don worry, u r not a retard, just try doing this. Lie down on the floor n see the room u r in??? u will start noticing how the light on the ceiling shines out, or how the box on that cupboard makes a weird shadow, also u might find that socks u have been looking for, but thats besides the point....
so that is how a star was born, hahah NO. But who knows, isnt it? I never had a camera of my own till (this is gonna be shocking) 2008, but I have a well categorized collection of photos from 2003..strange isnt it...well i was mostly poor and it did not help I had expensive taste and worse when u have frens who have spare cameras, who needs one of their own :P Go on, call me a CHEAPO. Anyway, the first camera I owned (actually borrowed on a long term basis) was a Canon Powershot G2. That was the camera that grew me into the art of angle shots. The G2 comes with a flip out screen, which was rather cool. Suddenly all those impossible shots became a breeze.
Now i own a Canon powershot SX10, thats a baby.Its grown me into a new level, I have already used this to take photos for weddings...n if u were wondering, i was the official photographer...its great, perhaps when i more accustom with blogging n syncing my flickr account, u will get to see my work. What I really wish to have is a dSLR with a flip out screen...hmm, i can soo picture the fun with that
Ok, this is already turning into a much longer rant than i thought, i dont want u guys to get the wrong picture...i purely intend to write shortish punchy entries n not looooooong boring emo ones, at least that what i think now. Are you trigger happy like me?
p.s I am sorry for calling you guys a retard, actually I am the bigger retard...hope that settles it.
