A photograph is...

"The basic material of photographs is not intrinsically beautiful.

It's not like ivory or tapestry or bronze or oil on canvas.

You're not supposed to look at the thing,

you’re supposed to look through it. It's a window."

 

~ John Szarkowski ~

 

Language... has created the word "loneliness" to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word "solitude" to express the glory of being alone.

 

About myself, many silver moons ago now....

 

This all started eversince I got the chance to use a Minolta film camera.

My Dad had owned a few point and shoot cameras during my grade school days, which I used as often as I wanted to.

 

My very first serious snapshot was that of a cat half-napping on someone else's house rooftop one warm sunny afternoon.

I can even remember vividly, how I eagerly positioned myself on the verandah, trying to nail one decent shot

and at the same time wishing the cat wont move or run away,

otherwise I will forever lost that moment.

The cat did move. But I was on alert so....

 

Im happy to know that I still have that print kept safe somewhere in my secret "childhood box".

Something hidden beneath....

 

At times when I capture an image with a meaning so deep,

I know I captured my own emotions as well.

Some of my photographs are too personal,

I can even feel them breathe and see them bleed....

 

A reason to be away...

 

Too many things too little time...

 

I need something to freeze the time for me so that I can check it out a lot and be amaze

once more, over and over again...

Each day whenever I study my surroundings, I grow fond of the old things that had been there for years

and yet I never even cared to throw a second look.

Because of photography, finally I found myself rediscovering them in a new point of view...

 

In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe & enough shadows to blind those who dont

 

I am forever a child...

 

And the inquisitive mind of the little child in me wanting to be satisfied

why things around me do look the way they do

And for the life of me, I had never stop asking why...

 

Seeing things in a new perspective makes me click that shutter button.

I will be forever grateful for the invention of the camera.

 

When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.

 

Im an amateur, a hobbyist and self-taught. A forever dreamer.

And yes, I believe that my journey has just begun ....

Thank you for visiting my profile.

I apologize in advance if I cant add you back as a contact immediately.

Perhaps I will sooner or later. Kindly allow me enough time to decide

how many contacts I can manage.

At the moment, Im already having a hard time catching up with 100+

and honestly my flickring time is very limited these days, which forced me

to removed "some" contacts I no longer see eons ago :((

Obviously, those people I keep are cool in my book *wink wink*

regardless if they regularly visit my stream or not.

Some people in my contact list are like a family to me.

Without them, I might not be as inspired.
