A Morning Walk at Bukit Kledang..

Assalamualaikum to all readers.

Last Tuesday, my friends and I having a walk at Bukit Kledang (hunting for sunrise actually). But suddenly, the sunrise is blocked by the clouds. Arghh what a frustrating day.

So, we decide to shoot whatever we can around the place.

"Gloomy Morning"

Pre-wedding. Perhaps? :P

"I see sky are blues... but the sunrise is totally being blocked by the CLOUDS" 

=.="

Before went home (frustating actually..), we found a monkeys are everywhere at the tree and decide to shoot some with 70-200G f/2.8...

this is shot at f/2.8 with my A200. Love the bokeh.

That's all for this time. Enjoy reading and viewing the image! :D

Ramadhan Photo of the Day: Day 4 - Journal Begins?

Assalamualaikum and good morning to all Mirul Photography blog readers. I just came back from Ipoh, looking for a new G-Shock Watch at Gerbang Malam... As usual, photography blog must have a photo of the item that I've already said.. If not, it means nothing. HAHA.

Here were are...

The left one I bought a few weeks ago.... That one is called Brother Robot (I don't know why people give this tagline to this watch ==")... So today I've bought the right one.. Er, blue color with black... That one is called as Robot.. By the way, I like to collects those G-Shock... Reason? I really love their design!! Look rugged and casual (probably?)

After that, my stomach started to played a "ding-dong" sound!! I'm hungry because didn't eat much during break fast.. Because of that I went to a Malay food stall at "Taman Kanak-Kanak", besides Kamdar Ipoh..
Want to go there? Didn't know the location? Here's the coordinate: 4°35'45"N   101°5'2"E and the map..

Some Journalism Photos by me.. mirulalpha

Salam. Street photo shooting... I was kind of interesting things for me. Since I was involved in this photography world, I'm trying to discover what is street photo is.. Because many photographers tell about and it was like some hot stuffs for teenage and "otai" or legendary photographer.

What is street photo?
Street photo is a photos that been taken candid or else on the street. Er? My explanation is quite bad. Never mind. Maybe you all could ask the Chot Touch to find the real meanings of it and get some better explanations.

What is journalism?
About the journalism... Yes, I can explain it. Journalism is an activity where you study (investigate) in curtain places and make a report to an audience. For example, you are the photojournalism that have been on duty to make a photojournalism at Thailand. Some of the example report or their study are... the culture, the arts and maybe daily life on the places.

Ok. I'm done with it. Here's some of the photos that I've taken since I'm using a200. I'm still newbie in the type of photography. So, maybe some of the photo didn't have any explanation or story?

That's all for this post.. I'm tired today. Too many things to be done... That's all guys. Thanks for viewing. Enjoy.!

Travel: Lumut-Telok Batik

Salam. It's been a very long time I didn't updated my blogs... Such a quiet blogs right now... pheww....

By the way, the blog didn't updated with new post actually is because of I'm travelling to Lumut and Telok Batik. I went there with my parents last Tuesday. It's been a long time I didn't come to Lumut and Telok Batik... (last time still using a prosumer camera)..

So, the gears that I've been use at Lumut and Telok Batik is...

...A200?!?! Where did this camera came from!? Nevermind.. I bought it from Alphanatics forum since my A230 is being send for Steadyshot System services... (already out of order)...and will be back on Feb 2011...

Ok. It was very hard to shoot since I didn't have any telephoto lens beside my hands now. So, I shoot whatever I can with only 2 lenses... The kitlens 18-55 (the lens who people hate it so much... but it works wonder for me!) and the little devil prime 50's 1.8 (bokeh!!)

Here's my photos during 2 days trip over there....

I love this shot so much..!
Entitled "There's Two of Us"
"Travels"
Another favorite shots.. "Journey"
"Relax"
"The Mysterious Corridor" (what a horror... It is actually the hotel that I used to stayed)
The only "Classic"

That's not all... But, that's more than enough for me to upload on my new post...

I think that's all for this post... Thank you for viewing and please comments if needed...

Stay tuned for updates!
