I'm a self-taught Documentary and Street Photographer (to be) based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I try to document the mundane and the simple things that make the everyday. I take photos of people and the life on the streets.

Gears/Equipments,

Compact Fujifilm X100s with Fixed 23mm Lens

Canon EOS SLR 500N with Kit Lens (Film Camera)

Canon Canonet GIII (Film Camera)

Post Processing,

I just use a simple software to convert the files and do a little enhancement i.e crop, strengthen, fix contrast etc which less than a minute to be done (simple style with standard/auto fixed) and I don't believe in photo manipulation. My photographs are about a daily life (documentary) and don't have to "do" anything. They are just pictures about "life", no cliche, no manipulation etc.

Silky (for Fujifilm RAW Conversion)

LightRoom V4

Inspirations,

Henri Cartier-Bresson is still relevant to me. Fan Ho (China/Hong Kong) is my favorite artists all the time.
