Michael Jackson 1958 ~ 2009

 

“You Are Not Alone”

 

Another day has gone
I’m still all alone
How could this be
You’re not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

 Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
But you are not alone

‘Lone, ‘lone
Why, ‘lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I’ll come runnin’
And girl you know that I’ll be there
I’ll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart

For you are not alone…

Korean Praise 2009

UPDATE 25 June 2009 : I decided to combine both installments to avoid confusion. So here they are all in 1 post.

 

What a shoot! I totally enjoyed myself. The energy of the Koreans was so infectious, seeing them singing with so much conviction makes me want to shoot more!  We had a full house on Saturday night and the aircon was struggling to keep things cool but that just didn’t matter coz the Koreans were really belting it out with a number of great Praise song!

Here’s the first installment,… that’s as much as I could process last night…

Good evening CHURCH!

One of the things I experimented with is using rear shutter sync in this shoot. I’m glad it worked well and as expected… ;)

Portrait Shoot Update

Yesterday was the actual day for the shoot.  Didn’t realize it was also the flower carnival at the botanical gardens. So we got caught in the jam and had a hard time finding a parking space. Ended up parking near youth park and walking all the way. Our  poor model, reached the shoot site all hot and sweating haha… 

We still had a good time, after a good cool drink of excel isotonic and some chocolate bars for energy. We had a strange encounter with an almost naked indian man hogging our waterfall shoot site. He saw us with our camera gear and thought we were going to take his picture :S …. how vain can people get?  So we had to go shoot some where else first until he left the place.

Anyway, after the shoot and after dinner, got home and found out that there was a black out till mid night!  So I could not do any processing… so stay tuned, photos of our first portrait shoot is coming up next :-)
