The ending of one chapter

Another chapter of my life has comes to an end. Finally finished my higher study of Aquaculture Degree in University Malaysia Sabah after 3 years of struggling in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. The first 2 years were not as pleasant as it seems, where i couldnt find great foods and friends.  Third year was great, with lotsa photography activities and new friends.. good friends! Was kinda sad actually, leaving everyone and Sabah... even if it's just few days already, i've start missing them, sad...

Back to Penang last Thursday, May 14 and was quite busy with everything... have some adventure with Pascal and Nico last  today, my friends from Switzerland came visitng Malaysia and some other asian country. Bring them for some great foods and fish collecting trips around Penang and Kedah. NExt, waiting for Mr. Hideo Mochizuki, my japanese lecturers from UMS to visit Penang and bring him for some sight seeing and foods, great foods! hehe...

Need to prepare my stuff here.. and will load them on to a lorry to Kuala Lumpur, where the next chapter begin, working life! I will be working with Joe in SLippery Little Suckers, a great fish shop with showcase new concepts and bringing in new exotics and rare fish from all over the globe. They were used to be my suppliers of great fish and now, will be working along side and hopefully, i can learn alots of stuff there, particularly imports/exports and also, more importantly, can get some real nice fishes...!! hehe... and topractise my fish photography skills there always... :p

So long for now, will keep updating... hopefully with more photos... there were some left out albums unposted yet.. too bz... will do it ASAP ya... :p thanks for the patient.

The workshop was held on last sunday, 26 April 2009, with a total of 22 participants and 18 crews, featuring MSJ members, models, G Cut, Zheng Boutique, Street, Lolitas, Canon, Investline and etc..  Thanks to Gerry for inviting me as a crew, in helping out the workshop, leading a group and teach some basic skills, particularly on Nikon DSLR. Also many thanks to the rest of the crew, Valentine, Kysham, AK, and the models, Quennie, Lam Lam, Nicole and Samantha. Also a big thank you for Stephen for allowing us to use Borneo Kellybays for the workshop and outing.

Throughout the whole workshop, participants have the chance to learn basic Aperture, Shutter and ISO. They also have the chance to practice and learn portraiture shots outdoor with 4 different models. I manage to took some shots too, althought it was a little hectic n tiring...

San Fransisco Coffee and sunset

Another San Fransisco Coffee visits.. i just love their coffee, seriously... rich, tasty, but a little pricey a, RM15 for large Extreme Mocha. No service charge and gov tax though, thats the good thing! hahaha...

After that, sunset shooting again... Jesselton Point, seriously one good place for nice sunset shoot, with or without models. Haha.. can practice wireless flash too.. Thanks to Jessica for being my model again., haha... Took some shots, although i did some silly mistake of adjusting the 'more vivid' thing.. alots of pic went bad.. :(

Anyway, enjoy...
