First ever editted photo with photoshop and photoscape

Never knew that my photoscape allows me to create such this kind of dramatic-feeling photo.
Well, it was originally editted using my expired photoshop CS3 to create vignetting effect (black shadow on the edges of the photo) and monochrome, then post-post editing with photoscape to add on some cinematic effects.

Woots! Like it or not? Comment comment.. =D

p/s: This photo was taken when I was participating in ICCP (intercoastal cleanup project) by Lions club and it reminds me something which I was in the same group with yongseng and our beloved JASON CH'NG. You will always be with us. =(

My very first time photoshooting outdoor model portraiture (21st March 2010)

Wee.. Have just lost my 'VIRGINITY' that morning! HAHAHAHAHA!
Well, just kidding! the 'virginity' doesn't means that i have lost my 'XXX' but my very first time shooting outdoor portraiture with LIVING models with PheayRong Ang.
WOOTS! Thanks to Chian Shiong for being our 'driver' to fetch us go and flo throughout the session.
WooW! it was really an skill-enriching experience, and thanks for the 'free' models, who was this hot-sweet-spicy-couple, Chian Siong and Chin Pin. Thanks for bringing me into the 'game' too. =)
**The 4W's I wanted to say before start posting...

Let's get the whole 'story' started. =)
PheayRong.com spam-called me early in the morning (when I still has yet woke up)... which kept me grounding. =P
But still, I get up from my bed and had my breakfast with my dad, surprisingly, I was the one who fetch myself and dad to school with bike, without L nor P license. =S

OKOK! Being the so-called 'director' for that day, I forced them to do whatever poses i wanted!
We went to Penang Botanical Garden for the first session. Get ready... Start!
First photo of the day.

Edited. Do you like the colour? Nostalgic or not? =D

Their hands, I was thinking, When only can my and her* hands being photographed like this too? Can I? Who will be the 'awesome' photographer to replace me? LOL!

And the'she' in the photo says, "our love starts with a glance toward the other; grows with a word 'I love you'!"

The hot and sweet and spicy model a.k.a. couple, featuring Chin Pin X Chian Siong.

We even asked the uncle who was playing with bubbles with his kids beside to add on some effect for the photos. Like, blowing bubbles for us. =P
Here come some bubble shots,


Chin Pin!!! Look at the me, don't look at Chian Siong!! =P

At least this one is better. =D

Fill-flash has done a great job too! A gentle reminder to ANG PHEAY RONG, don't scare to fire flash when needed!

I even 'assigned' them to strike a proposing pose. LOL, I was really not embarrass. ==

In progress...

And the proposal passed!
Of course after every successful proposal, couple will go through this step, passionate kisses and hug and electricity-generating stares!


Can you feel the current?!

Bamboo X hot Couple, which will you choose?

Last mission: lean on the tree which full of ANTS!

Went to the next place for the 2nd photoshoot session, this broaden the styles and choices of the photos taken. We were at Gurney Drive.

Simple enough? Sweet enough! Hot enough! Each pic expresses the unbreakable linkage between them.


手牵手，一起走～ (hand holds hand, walk together.)
After that, we went to Evergreen hotel to change costumes and took a little rest.

Changed costume, were really a potential-model-wanna-be, brought extra shirts to change. =D

Then the last session, at Pier Church Street, more specifically at Q.E. II.

At Q.E. II,


And now, how about try some SEDUCTIVE POSES?

Um um...

To a better tomorrow!

This one, the last one, got the wedding photography feel. LOL

Even the little cat beside felt admire... see its expressions.

Meow~ I want too!! meow~

Hmm.. URGHH... meow meow meow~ *Kelvin is here, 偶像! IDOL!* meow meow meow~
LOL~

Everything happened smoothly, went on smoothly, and I reached my tuition class on time too!
Again, special credit to them who invited me to the photoshoot, especially Ang Pheay Rong. =)
Cheers! The behind the scene will be updated soon.
Stay tuned. =)

Shanghai-Jiang Nan 8 Days Trip [DAY 4]

[26th December 2009]
Heyy, it has been a month for not updating about my trip in Shanghai, China. Kay, now let's continue with the 4th day.

The day started with a buffet style breakfast, it seems like every hotel in China offers fried egg and noodle soup in the buffet breakfast, the fried egg and noodle soup are like their 'must-eat' in their breakfast. *so far it had been my 4th day in china and I used to have these as my breakfast since 4 days before. High protein and carbohydrate content --- keep warmth. Woots! *

Okkie, the photo below indicates the start of the day 4.

My 'yaoyeng' daddy. He told me he was too full. == *He sat beside me in the tour bus throughout the whole vacation.*

Having some hot soups perhaps? The temperature that day was like 2 ~ 4 degree Celsius, working under this serious condition was killing. Pity him, he still had to stand outside the hotel the whole day.

Arrived the ChangJiang Bridge in Nanjing after half an hour. At the bridge,


The Yangtze River a.k.a. the mighty ChangJiang river(长江).

Miniature Chinese people. 耍太极?

Like this very much, it looks like a mixture of society of modern and the older days. Meaningful?

Another side of the bridge, pure handmade. And there is a touching and patriotism-igniting story behind the bridge. It indicates the start of the inclining power of the mighty China.
After all, we went for a lunch at a jade wholesale shop in NanJing.

Not many people bought their products even though their convincing skill is so damn good.
Then, we arrived WuXi after 2 hours journey.
First place we visited in WuXi was the Great Buddha statue of LingShan (灵山大佛).

Mum.

The statue of Buddha of LingShan (灵山大佛 a.k.a. 佛大山灵 when read inversely). We have to walk likely more than 300 steps in order to reach the top.

Almost reached the 'peak'.





Patterns of ceiling inside.

Pigeons. Tamchiak pigeons.


One of its son. LOL
After these, i shut my DSLR down and just following the tourist guide. We spent most of the time there, and the sky was already dark when we left the LingShan.
Went shopping complex after dinner! WOOTS.

Shot some stores which I've never seen in M'sia.



Do you like this? Shot without tripod. =D

Back to hotel, tried my very first time : vaining in front of the mirror.

My hair was messy, ignored it.

May be this one is better?
The day 4 ended this way, it wasn't a really exciting day as compared with the other days. Hmm.. so, stay tuned to my following updates. =D
Cheers. =D
