hey guys, thanks for voting for your favourites! its quite a good response eh? so yeah...here are the before and afters...enjoi :)

this was one of the first few photos i retouched this time before starting the blog, i felt that the shot was already good as it is, but somehow just need a lil more drama and mood in it, so i desaturated the whole thing and corrected the levels. if only this was video, with swirling and rolling clouds behind...i think that would be awesome and surreal

i was in monkey island in penang, where the beach was really empty and clean, clear skies and alot of photo oppurtunities. right in front of me were these 3 boats. after framing these 2 up, i thought it'd be really cool to colour grade it to a late evening mood, gold skies and all. hence i named it 'petang', the time when the fishermen come back?

hahahha...this was really being at the right place at the right time...mr al-qaeda suddenly walked in to frame just as i was about to snap...and at first i thought to myself...this idiot had to spoil the shot lah...then one split second later i thought...holy shit! this is good! so i quickly pressed the shutter...i likeee...um...it was a very cloudy day...and having the ferris wheel there made me wanna give it a 'coney island' look...something like what you would see in the movie 'requiem for a dream'...with green skies...i love green skies...i think skies should be green...

um...i found this after digging through my NZ shots...at this time i was still at a high for green skies...so yeah...i green-skied this one...

it was chinese new year, i went back to malacca, went down to town to find photo oppurtunities...was walking in an alley and i saw this...and when i say i saw this...i mean that this was a tiny shoplot with no doors, or wall or windows in the front...its like you could literally walk into these guys...so i quickly snapped before they noticed...i really wanted this cos i missed a shot similiar to this in penang...it was too dark...so yeah...but i hated the bloody ochre walls...so i made it red...and to answer bee's question, i dunno who these fellas are...theyre just strangers...

now this is the intense shit...we were gonna do a high angle shot, no budget for a helicopter, so a crane would suffice...and yeah i had to go up with it...i dont like heights...so i gave my balls to zell to keep...it was high...100 over feet...at the main road...buzy main road...shaky crane...early morning...too early for this shit...so...you see me down here...but you dont see me at all up there...why...cos i was squating down once we went higher than 30 feet...but i was up there...i had to squat down...i just freakin had to...the shot was good...and i lived to see another day :)
