This was shot by one of the participants Alvin Lai, during the creative lighting practical shoot session. Did he manage to achieve a rim light around the subject? He certainly did! take a look.

I’ve quickly edited some of the photos from the workshop. We really had a blast with plenty of hands on and practical sessions.
One of the things we got the participants to try out was panning technique.

All busy trying to do panning on cars passing by

Here's my panning shot

A quick demo on off camera flash technique, Loy was sporting enough to be our model

This is just outside our training room, nice place eh?

Setting up the reflector for bounce flash

Creative lighting is addictive! We just couldn't get enough of it!

Sifu master teaching about white balance
This is the difference! Kapish?!
Paying full attention to the sifu master

That’s all for now… but stay tuned! more pics coming your way!

Shot this back in Dec 09 before Christmas at a jetty along Jelutong Expressway together with a couple of friends Loy & Lu… sorry slack a bit in getting this published sooner haha!.. here’s what we got from waking up at 6am to catch the day break, thank God fora good clear sky with a bit of clouds.

At the crack of dawn

I hung my camera upside down on a monopod to get this angle. I love how it looks when u rotate the photo right side up.

A little closer … notice how the sky colour changed just within a few minutes difference.


another of my "upside down" technique


Here comes the sunrise. We retreated to "higher ground" to get this shot

before we knew it, the sun was already too high and too bright. I just had to get me another sun star!
That’s Lu in the shot …

... and another as we were leaving the jetty
Lu and Loy casting a long shadow with the sun in the background

... and one more before we hit the road. he he! cldn't resist it.
