I suppose, just like everyone else, that when I started on my photography journey I thought that the bigger, and more expensive the camera, the more professional I would be. Wrong! Considering that most of the greatest photographs were created using minimal equipment; £3-4K DSLR’s, 200mmm 2.8 lenses and Holdfast Money Makers seem a little […]
This photo was taken at a small fish village at Sungai Batu, Penang last year end. It was a peaceful and quit evening at the beach. The old man, sat in a small shed, was smoking his cigar while mending the fishing net. He seems so enjoying his cigar and skilled mending his net. There […]
I don’t want to think about the technical aspects of photography when I’m shooting weddings. I don’t want to be considering anything other than moment, light and composition. I don’t want anything to distract me from the story. I’ve shot with loads of cameras, but the camera for me personally that has allowed me to […]
SLOWLY BUT SURELY I bought a Fuji X-Pro1 as soon as the local Calumet had one in stock. I hadn’t used it, I hadn’t read much about it, other than about the fancy new (at the time) sensor but the one thing I had seen was Zack Arias’ notes on it and seen what he […]

When I was 21, I bought myself a Nikon D5100, with 18-55mm kit lens and fulfilled my childish dream of having a “proper” camera for capturing what I see. As the time progressed I sold the kit lens and slowly added Nikon 35 mm F1.8, Samyang 8mm F3.5, Nikon 55-200mm F3.5-F4.0, and later on swapped […]
I stayed true to Nikon SLR cameras for about 13 years, but the need to always have with me a good camera, that can satisfy my thirst of pictures, led me to find the perfect device! It started with the Ricoh GRD III, then the Lumix LX7 and the Ricoh GR “APS-C” that I still […]
It has been nearly 1.5 years owning Fuji X-Pro1 to accompany in my daily life. Yes, the camera is the thing I can’t live without. So you would have no wonder if I always bring a big backpack to my engineering office. Being an engineer would not stop me taking photo, I won’t lost the […]
