we travelled up north yesterday - to the tip of borneo, and then to goshen adventist secondary school. these panoramic works were done by merging multiple shots using photoshop.

hey peeps, this is what i'd like to share in this post. i used my sony a550 + sigma 1850 2.8 to capture the following photos. the thing that i like about my camera is = sony's smart teleconverter which supports 1.5x & 2x teleconverter and the sigma's focusing distance which is 20cm. believe me that's close enough (for me). anyways here's the result. these photos were taken on our way back from poring when we decided to stop by a roadside flower stall. enjoy! :)

shot at 50mm & 100mm

here's a wedding that i attended this morning & i wasn't the official photographer. still i brought my gear along :) believe it or not, every event that i attend i learn something new! there's just so much more to learn about photography ;) the thing that i learnt today was about lighting (flash)..wouldn't elaborate more at this moment.

anyways, here are the photos - just the ceremony. enjoy!

i got this idea from this month's issue of DCM Malaysia - creating "x-ray" images via photoshop :) tried this out of curiosity and i'm pretty satisfied with the results. still, there's always room for improvement :)

thanks for viewing!

here's how i did it ;)

poor man's flash ring :p 

made it out of mounting boards. though a lil' flimsy but it does the job (surely not as good as the real ones)

the set-up :)

camera set on a tripod,  subject placed on white background

the results :D

converted them into grayscale in camera raw;  invert & swith to RGB(to be able to add a tint) & tint

once again, welcome to nathanshoots :) i was inspired by other photographers to photograph even more and improve (hopefully this inspiration lasts longer this time!), which led me to create this new blog!
i'd like to share my journey as i learn more about photography & life :)

i'll start uploading in my next post :)
