It’s 2013 and I’m back!

It’s been more than a year now since my last post. Many things, good things, have been happening after that robbery that cost me all my gears. Although I’ve not updated this blog for a long time, I notice that there are still many views daily so this is why I’ve decided to continue from where I left off.

First of all, Happy New Year to everyone!! woop woop!! I had a good start in 2013 but not last night.. I dreamt that a tiger was somehow in my room, gazing at me angrily. What did I do? I dont know! My heart was pounding like a chinese chef hitting on a dough. Suddenly the tiger jumped on my bed and before I could react, I woke up…. with a tiny scream Well, I laughed to myself cuz I cant imagine how stupid I look. Then I thought “okay, I’m awake now..let’s do a shoot.” so here goes. Happy New Year again!

Lighting Setup:
I used 2 flashguns for this shoot. An SB900, placed 45′degrees to the “model’s” right on TTL at eye level. Another flashgun, SB600, was placed 45′deg on the model’s left above eye level pointing downwards. But the SB600 was set on TTL with -0.7 compensation, both triggered using built-in flash.

Camera Setup:
Shutter 1/20
ISO 200
f/stop: 5.6

Please get your gears insured!!!

On the night of 18th Nov 2011 at about 10:30pm, 5 men armed with Parangs (I’m not sure what it’s called in english) forced my gate open and came in to the house. Before anyone could react, my parents and brother were asked to go in to one of the rooms. With one robber guarding my family, the other four ransacked the whole house. The horror lasted for about 30 minutes. When I got home, I was informed about the incident and apparently they left about 3 minutes before I reached. The first thing I did was obviously to check on my gears. It was a heart stopping moment when all I could see was an open empty drybox, worth almost RM12k in total.

These items are uninsured, meaning it’s a loss for me. A big one indeed. Guys guys guys, please get your gears insured. I used to think that it might not be a big deal, or thought this would never happen to me (maybe) but it did. I blame myself for it. Looks like I wont be shooting anything for now. Oh btw, they left my Lubitel 2 behind looks like it time to shoot film! Stay tuned!!

The Used @ Rockaway, Bukit Jalil

Last night was definitely one of the best night of my life!!! The Used, one of my favourite band came all the way down to KL from Utah to rock their fans’ socks off in Rockaway 2011!!!!  Unfortunately I came just before The Used came on stage so… I pretty much missed all the other acts including Hujan, Busco,Love Me Butch, Story Of The Year and many many more! But I caught a bit of One Buck Short though. ;p

Every single song they played was mind blowing! I couldn’t imagine a better set to be honest. To name a few, ‘Take it Away‘, ‘Pretty Hansome Awkward‘, ‘Hospital‘, and ‘All that I’ve got‘.

The picture snapping had to stop after a few songs as it started to rain heavily Oh well…the camera went back into its “nest” and the rocking continued!!! By the end of the show, we were all drenched and cold but it was all worth it! Haha! Non of these would’ve happen if it wasn’t for Murat Oezmen (better not mention what he did for me just in case he gets into trouble) and my girlfriend (Jessica) who helped me with capturing most of the photos here, while I go crazy!!! Also to the organisers who made this happen! Hehe! Anyway enough of talking, enjoy the rest of the set!

Thanks for viewing!
