LOMOFIED






FAKE LOMO : Lomography emphasizes casual, snapshot photography. Characteristics such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure, blurring, "happy accidents," and alternative film processing are often considered part of the "Lomographic Technique."[citation needed] Users are encouraged to take a lighthearted approach to their photography, and use these techniques to document everyday life, as the Lomo LC-A's small size, simple controls, and ability to shoot in low light encourages candid photography, photo reportage, and photo vérité.[citation needed]

Pulau Ubin - My third visit..






Pulau Ubin

Pulau Ubin is a small island (10.19 km²) situated in the north east of Singapore, to the west of Pulau Tekong. Granite quarrying supported a few thousand settlers on Pulau Ubin in the 1960s, but only about a hundred villagers live there today. It is one of the last rural areas to be found in Singapore.

Singapore Airshow 2008



Too hot to miss, but I missed it, unfortunately there was a huge crowd on that day(Saturday). I didn't expect to be like that so going there around 9am is not a good idea on a event like this one. The acrobatic airshow had started while we are inside the registration and security section.


Singapore Airshow, Asia's largest aerospace and defence event, is a joint venture between the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore and the Defence Science & Technology Agency. It is one of the top three air shows in the world and serves as a global marketplace and networking platform for the military and civil aviation community.

Photomacrography















Macro photography
refers to close-up photography; the classical definition that the image projected on the "film plane" (i.e film or a digital sensor) is the same size as the subject.

I'm using only a Standard macro lens : Sigma 70-300mm APO DG MACRO w/o any close-up filter or extension tube.


Hope you enjoy some of my collections:

Thai Poosam Kavady


Thai Poosam Kavady Festival - Singapore 2008

Thai Poosam Kavady is a Hindu religious festival dedicated to Hindu deity Lord Murugan that is celebrated by Tamil people in South Africa not in India originated.

Kavady translates in Tamil language as a pole slung across the shoulder to evenly distribute the weight of whatever is being carried, usually in bundles on either ends of the pole. The carrying of kavady symbolizes the carrying of one’s burden and then resting it at the feet of the Lord.

Thai Poosam Kavady falls on the full moon day in the Tamil month Thai (January). The ten-day festival starts with hoisting of the flag. Daily rituals, abolitions and singing devotional hymns are held in honour of Lord Murugan. On the main day of the Kavady festival, devotees carry the Kavady from a distance away from the temple, preferable from a river, back to the temple. It is believed that the more effort and hardship applied when carrying the Kavady, the more benevolent Lord Murugan will be towards fulfilling his devotee’s needs. Devotees usually carry milk and honey on either end of their Kavadies. After entering the temple grounds the devotees carry their Kavadies three times around the temple. When they are inside the temple, the milk and honey are poured over the statue of Lord Murugan. The festival concludes with the de-hoisting of the flag.

Foot Prints in the sand

Nirwana Beach Resort - Bintan Beach resort


I choose this caption for my "Title" because it is common to everybody.. You can see or heard this kind of subject title everywhere in a postcard, a gospel from the bible , greeting cards, quote's, music and etc......

This is my few first shot I've done last 2006 using a LUMIX FZ-50, newbie that time so no time to think about composition, proper settings, or ask myself did I take the shot very nice or good ? No Photoshop at all too :). Hmmmm, I forgot I still consider myself a newbie until this moment....


Why footprints in the sand? Hmmmm... from the gospel itself - Walking with the lord while you are dreaming. Unfortunately I still not experienced this in my dreams walking in the beach with the Lord but looking forward to have one someday very sooooon..

For me this image interpret our challenges in life, if you have two set footprints in the sand it means you are having good challenges and you are doing very well, but if one foot only then it will be your difficult times to achieve something. I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand, how about you ?

Everyone have their own footprints in the sand, this is you who make your own path on every step you take. The footprints will be there to represent your goals if it vanished then you failed to achieve something on your journey through life in Earth. What will be your footprint in the sand will be ??

Quote:

“The years when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you.” - GOD

I Don’t Know Where My Journey Ends

Everybody have the same question in their minds as I'm thinking right now, how I will conquer my last journey in this life I have now ?? . Honestly I don't know how it will end, did you ?

I wish that after every journey we are taking part; Career, Decision, Love life, Family life, & your own life will be a memorable one, be optimistic or even hope it will be a good one.


This "questions" cross my mind for 2 weeks now and still cannot answer it, it's complicated but I know God will be there to guide me.....


But at the end of the day it is still "you" who will make your journey how to end, it could be better or worst.

As for me, and maybe for the rest of us, we have our own mountain to conquer. I don’t know where my journey ends. I just hope and pray I can make it to the top and die happy.
