.. this year. This school holiday has been very slow for my wedding photography job. 22nd Nov 2008 was my last job this year and only job for this long school holiday. Even last August 1 week school holiday I managed to get 3 jobs. Now 7 weeks holiday but I only managed to get 1 job.  Ithink too many photog in the market. DSLR is very cheap now. With an investment of around RM3000 you can get a DSLR with kit lens and a flashgun already. Yesterday bought a DSLR and today called themselves photographer already.

It was decades ago when I was into photography. During my schoolday which is 1980. The camera was not mine. Lim Soon Heng (my classmate) bought it but I was the one who used it almost all the time.

The point is taking photos is not just about making money. I like kenduri atmosphere. I like meeting people and the food.

One from my last job. Not much here but capturing the sky with the object balancely exposed during bright daylight is one of the technic cannot be learned in a day!

Sebelum memulakan kayuhan ke Tunnel Komunis pada 15 Nov 2008, selepas taklimat dari Uncle Ron, time nak baca doa, sorang pun tak volenteer. Aku pun tau tau lupa. Cukup memalukan. Benda yang jadi hafalan budak-budak tak dapat diingat oleh bapak budak. Aku ingat sikit-sikit dan tak confident. Nasib baik Nasir yang menyelamatkan keadaan.

Doa tu bukan susah sangat cuma tak diamalkan saja. Kalau doa yasin atau doa tahlil tu lain la.

Semoga semua dapat hafal dan download masuk dalam handphone so setiap kali ride boleh baca atau dengar.

DOA NAIK KENDERAAN

Az Zukruf 43:13-14

Malay
Maha Suci Tuhan yang telah memudahkan kenderaan ini untuk kami, sedang kami sebelum itu tidak terdaya menguasainya.
Dan sesungguhnya kepada Tuhan kamilah, kami akan kembali!

English
“Glory to Him Who has subjected these to our (use), for we could never have accomplished this (by ourselves),
And to our Lord, surely, must we turn back!”

Comel tewas.

On 24th October 2008 while waiting for flight to Bandung at LCCT, I met an old friend of mine, Shimi. Last met her more than 15 years ago. Meeting her bring back old memories. Times when nothing much matters. My life was full with music and concerts. My scholarship was spent on records and upgrading HIFI. Time was spent on snooker table and hanging out wih friends.

She is working with airasia. I wonder what happen with architecture she studied before. She on the left and my wife on the right.

Mount Pleasant building – area that I hanged around for 3 years

The School from the view I have never seen before.

Sabtu pagi, 7am, 1 Nov 2008, aku, Mael, Faizal Comel dan Faizal SG ride dari Alor Star to Kuala Sala. Faizal Comel mai start dari rumah aku dan Faizal SG dan Mael kami jumpa kat Masjid Aman. Masa pi on road dan bila balik baru ikut pantai. Total Distance – 65km dan time taken hampir 4 jam sebab berhenti makan kat Kuala Kedah lama sangat sebab asyik layan pulut sambal!
