No, i'm not gonna tell you about what new nail colour i've just had done, or what food i just ate, or even about the pretty new bag i just bought. I'm more interested in the real substance of life. Be it a life-changing experience, the secrets behind photography that i will spill, or something that stops me dead in my tracks, like a midnight ocean swim off the gulf of Cambodia surrounded by gazillion and gazillions of bioluminescence plankton, just like a scene out of The Beach, minus the f*cking and making out aspect of course. But i'll get to that later.

And as i'm losing my virginity for blogging, i'm gonna talk a bit about one of my favourite photos, done by a good friend and awesome photographer Leng Keong: (please view pic caption)

Picture
this photo might look like i'm laying beside a window and the natural light is bouncing off my face and hair. But this great back-lit shot actually has me laying right beside this huge soft box light, im literally laying 2cm from it. So if you ever want to recreate this shot, there you go.

Wow, you started a blog here =]

Thanks for the light-box tip, but I'm more interested to know the location where this pic (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bn_dck/5461527542/) was taken, if it's not asking too much from you. Otherwise, it's ok =P

Yep, a great way to reflect on my progress :)

No worries at all! The shoot was done in a hotel room, Link hotel in Singapore to be exact :)

Hi Tenashar

Street photography needs boldness and persistence, you've got it and your are on your way to great photo journalism :)
I like the feel of the picture and composition :) without the emotion in a picture is like a body without a soul. Thats just my feel :) Keep clicking, great job !
