The Blind Photographer

Have you ever imagine being in the world of the blind people who cannot see anything but just sound. This is even more difficult for blind person to do photography as he/she cannot see what they were capturing.

This art photographer Pete Eckert really did it even though he cannot see. Surrounding sound and his dog is the only guidance he has.




Here is another video of another blind artist talk about their image creation.

What been up during November

Earlier November I was helping a friend to do a photography for their rugby match, The IRB Asian Rugby seven series. Me, Cede and John Kong, John Prudente and Jason Reyes was the official photographer for the event.





Later after that, me and cede travel to Telupid for Bird Survey in one of the forest reserved call Bidu bidu which we found a great potensial for Birding Tour. We have a team who is already the for few days doing the survey and we just join in.

A new way of photography

Recently I just got my new Nikon D5000 and all I can say is, photography will be in a new way for me now. I start to do both still image and video. I understand video is always been connected to stills images as video is made of hundreds or thousands of still images in sequence. It just that, It came with a sound. I find it video now a day is a very good way to spread stories where you can upload it to youtube or vimeo. From now on you will start to see some video will be posted here in my blog. But of coz, still images is still on the top of my interest.

Here is another interesting thing for you photographers out there. This is an opportunities to see our photography level. It is another way to get your images out. Just to see how far you can go, worth a try. Good Luck!! Go to www.aseanbiodiversity.org

Bird fair and Photography Talk sponsored by Nikon

Few days ago, Cede called me and ask if can help them to be one of the speaker during the bird fair at 1Borneo and I said sure. Calvin Ng is suppose to do the talk about Nature & Landscapes photography but he didn't want to do it coz the next day he busy. So I replace Calvin for that topic. The respond was overwhelming. At first it was just "Basic nature photography" but I add Landscape photography as that is my specialties. I will post more images here soon.

Nikon has been giving away few free stuff during that fair including a trial CD of the new Capture NX2. Nikon cap and posters. With me now I still got extra 1 Nikon cap and two CDs of the Nikon Capture NX2 trial. I will be giving that away, so if you are interested you can post you name in this post comment.

Back from Manila Trip

My blog has been very quiet since my last post. That was done during the trip in Manila. I had received many messages asking me to put the images I took in Philippines in my blog. For a start here are some of it.

"We Need To Talk" -God


American War Memorial Manila

There you are few of the images I took. I still do the post process of the images. As I mention earlier, my trip to Manila this time was also to do an inspection and survey whether an itinerary for photographer can be created or not for Manila and yes sure can do.. I will come up with an itinerary soon and will be discussing with my friend who do outbound tour and hopefully can get a very good cheap price for us. I love to come again for more images. Stay tune.

Bee At Kinabalu Park

This image was taken by using ISO1000. I was try to freeze the bee during overcast weather, in order to do this I need to have a shutter speed 1/1000 or more. Using a continuous shot enable me to get several shots of the bee and choose the best one. The D300 are truly amazing in getting this kind of shot using high iso without getting so much noise. Fantastic!
