Random Portraits


These impromptu portraits and "action" shots were taken during a photo-walk around in May with fellow photographers :) It's really great fun spending a morning walking around the Penang Heritage trail to document the buildings that are so full of history. More post on the Heritage trail soon.











PWMF'08 Photo Published in CLICK! Mag

This is old news but one of my photos from the Penang World Music Festival 2008 got published in the June edition of CLICK! magazine. It's really exciting to see your own work published in a circular that's read by many people who have interest in photography. Having an image publish just makes me wanna produce more and better photos so that I may share it. I hope this is just the first of many photos to be published :)



Update P/S: I've finally found the correct way to have larger images posted on blogger :)

Portraits @ Georgetown


Earlier this month a few of us took a couple hours and went around the jetty area in Georgetown, Penang and took some impromptu portraits. We had great time parading around the streets and posing for the camera.

Here are some shots from the day.

Penang World Music Festival 2008


I had the privilege to join a group of photographers under the patronage of Arden Khoo from ePixels to photograph the Penang World Music Festival 2008. This is the second year after its inaugural start in 2007. Featuring a wide selection of music from folk songs and country music, all the way to modern rock. It was culturally inspiring to hear music from bands all around the world including Reunion Island, Iran, Tibet, Denmark and Crotia! The handsome guy above is from the group Taeda all the way from Ireland.

Here are some of my favourites from the 3 night event.
More images can be viewed here. Thanks to Arden and Bryan for setting up the gallery.
