Looking Back

When I entered Trimedia as Photo Editor, I started to worry about how I was going to contribute to the team. It was not the usual post of editing a newspaper or magazine. Instead it was to provide them with the visuals and at the same time, assist them in their editing work.

npTribune Issue One ready. Next up, Hype Magazine.

npTribune is ready. Now I shall brace myself for Hype magazine. Will need to have lots of photographs, and possibly a lot more new wacky ideas.

Time is flying by very quickly. Before I know it, I think I would have graduated.

A Short Break

Was heading home yesterday when I saw the moon and sun at their best. Wasn’t able to catch sunset as I was already on the bus, but I shot down the moon anyhows.

Today I shall take a break from photography – the entire week was spent on shooting, shooting and more shooting. It’s time to [...]

Cold Hearted

Never Have I Fallen
Your lips speak soft sweetness
Your touch a cool caress
I am lost in your magic
My heart beats within your chest
I think of you each morning
And dream of you each night
I think of your arms being around me
And cannot express my delight
Never have I fallen
But I am quickly on my way
You hold a heart [...]

The Creative Lighting System (CLS)

The Nikon Creative Lighting System is possibly the best in the world – I’m able to trigger multiple speedlites to create various types of cool pictures with that. It’s more troublesome to lug around 2 heavy tripods, 2 umbrellas, reflectors and extra camera baggage, but the pictures make it worthwhile.

You Know I’m Crazy
Do check out [...]

More More Work

More work has come my way this week. It appears to be good news, yet bad news at the same time. I’ve managed to get Vivocity to sponsor the Cambodia Trip Exhibition, and it’s going to be held from the 27th of November to 3 December this year.
The journey I’ve walked together with Lien [...]

More Work

It was a very busy day today.
Started off with me trying to fix up some administrative matters with Uncle Jack, the TSO (Technical Support Officer). The conglomerate will be bidding for a set of studio lights for feature shoots and product photography, and he’s the best person to approach on campus.
The day went [...]

Work

Things are piling up on me, and I spend most of my time in office doing paperwork for the conglomerate. I guess its what I like – doing all these media stuff. I also guess this means I will never get a girlfriend at this rate. Ho hums!

Same Same but Different

Interview with Mr PY Hwang

Behind the Camera
The Prodigy Team had an interview with Mr PY Hwang, EX-EDB Chairman today. The whole conglomerate was literally mobilized to bring about a live television studio recording at the Level 8 Television Studio.

CCA points will be rewarded, and participation will boost your portfolio – photos will be published on npTribune, HYPE magazine, and Urbanwire.com. Some assignments will also [...]

Refreshment

Villagers from Choy Takeo not only bathe in these river waters, but also obtain water for food and washing. Seen here is a young boy taking a dip after jumping off a bridge because of the hot weather.

Day 1 – Phnom Penn Central Market

The Phnom Penn Central Market is the place where people of the city come together to trade wares and sell foodstuff. The place is a treasure trove for photographers, and the people there are all friendly enough to pose naturally for pictures.

Updates

Hi everyone! I’m blogging from my hotel in Cambodia… I’m doing fine, just totally burnt from the heat over here… The food needed some adapting to, and the muddy roads of the villages were an obstacle. But, I”ve collected so many nice photos that when I’m back, you’ll get to see unimaginable stuff. Well, just [...]

Away From Home

Hi everyone, I will be away in Cambodia from tomorrow onwards, from 1 to 11 September. I will still be contact-able by phone or sms, but it will cost quite a bit, so only contact me should there be a calamity. I will definitely miss this sunny island, my dear home. More details of my [...]

The Great Escape

I will be going away this Monday, as mentioned in my previous posts, and won’t be back until 11th September. It’s going to be an escapade, as its my first time travelling so far and long away from the little red dot.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I…

3-In-1 Vaccination Day

Vaccination in preparation for the Cambodia trip started today, and the team had to go through 3 injections. Inactivated forms of Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and Tetanus were on the menu.

40 Depressive Mornings

Starting Friday, I will be starting on my daily morning dose of Doxycycline, an antibiotic drug used to prevent Malaria through primary Prophylaxis. The dark blueish-green pills which have ugly letterings on them totally turn me off, and I think I’m going to suffer from depression.

But what is this?
