Dance: Gelombang Baru
Light and water

Dance has always been one of my passions and that's why I'm always attending or shooting a dance performance. I'm also a regular contributor to AsiaDanceChannel. Here's my latest review for them and the rest of the photos from the ASWARA production Gelombang Baru: New Wave. It was an evening of contemporary dance by emerging choreographers and dancers.

Funny Shoot
Togetherjavascript:void(0)

This was a funny shoot for so many reasons.

First it took 6 months to plan since all three of us are such busy people and then it was brought to you by McDonalds. Well I wish but the irony of the day was, we ended up buying McDs from 2 different outlets and had our meals in the car as we rushed to our meeting spot.

A moment

The even weirder thing none of us are fast food fans. Anyway it was bright and sunny when we settled into my car and drove off to find this one location I’ve wanted to shoot at for some time. Just as we thought we won’t find the place, we bumped into the elusive road and found the abandoned building.

Sexy ;)

The next problem immediately swarmed in on us. The place was gorgeous but infested with mosquitos. My models were swatting themselves every 2 seconds so we quickly got out and tried to figure out what to do. We decided to find mosquito repellent and try the place again.
Weirdly the overbearing cheap cologne smelling repellent actually worked!

Touch don't Frozen moment


I’m sure you love the emotions in the photos but trust me this 2 burst out into laughter every 30 seconds! And it’s so infectious the three of us are laughing continuously.

How can you have a story without a mishap? Mid way through the shoot, I slipped on mud but the camera remained safe up in the air all throughout the slip ;p

At one point we started hearing furious tapping sounds above us and it took us some time to realise it was raining even though the place has no roof. The good thing about the place was we couldn’t feel the rain as the canopy is made of huge leaves.

But we still packed up just in case and stood waiting since we would definitely get wet walking out. As we stood there waiting we realised we were pretty much protected. So we decided to shoot again and midway through a few shots it started raining heavily and we made a mad dash to the car while I tried to protect the cameras.

I wish we had more time but whatever time we had was awesome.

Thanks guys ;)

Thaipusam 2010
Flashed

Thaipusam is one of my favourite festivals and after I became a photographer, each year I challenge myself to take different photos of the festival.

red Spectator A moment thaipusam

As a friend wrote on my flickr page, it was only after he landed here smack during the festival did he realise how intense and hard it is to photograph Thaipusam.

Colourful thaipusam

For photographers it’s an absolutely stunning occasion to put your skills to test. Don’t give up just try somemore next year. For devotees and visitors its a stunning array of devotion and colours to the sound of the drums.

My previous story on meeting
Joe Mcnally and following him during Thaipusam is here.

So enjoy the photos ;)
