Potraiture

hello. . .

this post today is about my experiment on a single flash portrait on a broad daylight / slight rain. couple of shots of the same angle taken for my own comparison and here are the results. . .
seriously need a lot of improvements to enhance the subject [ in the near future. . . ]


my wife Shima with a unique background


1st Daughter Hannah - kinda over exposed+bright background


2nd Daughter Alya - realized that i can actually enhanced the rain effect with flash triggered behind her. . . NEXT TIME !


My Elder sister Suzie. . . 50mm f2.8 kot. .


Alif Ashraf - flash from my left side since i did this shot in portraits and the flash maintained to triggered from sides.


But above all, this is my favorite! love the crispiness of her image against the background
50mm f1.8 !

Franchising In Malaysia

A Lesson Learnt - Need To Place Issues Into Perspective

Bernama, the news agency in Malaysia reported on the 8th of September last year that 30 franchisees were facing problems related to financing and were facing the possibility of being declared bankrupts as a result of not being able to service and repay loans between RM100,000 to RM400,000. It had been reported that they became victims of the franchisors involved.

These franchisees who had chosen several franchise systems as their business ventures also suggested that the government also terminate financing programmes for the franchisees.

Obviously this call is out of place as many other franchisees had benefited from such financing programmes.

Dear friends !

Please leave your comments or feedback on the ideas !

what in the world is going on?

i was here at home and watching the news when it is reported that a child got stuck in the washing machine in China. . .

How does that happen?

They somehow got her out without have to WASH - RINSE - SPIN ! after almost an hour . . .

Thank God !

Renung renungkan. . . Dan, Selamat Beramal. . .

assalamualaikum dan selamat sejahtera.

kebelakangan ini, kehidupan agak kucar kacir kerana kesilapan saya yang lalu atau dosa dosa saya yang lampau. bila saya fikir2 kan, saya rasa, macam semuanya " dibayar Cash " oleh Yang Maha Esa.

pengajaran nya adalah telus and Terang!

Penyelamat bagi diri ini adalah satu :

Pulanglah kepada NYA dan ikutilah Ajaran NYA. . .

selain itu :

Doakan lahkesejahteraan saya dalam setiap Doa kalian.

terima Kasih dan semoga bertemu kembali pada hari dan waktu yang sama minggu hadapan. . .

Renung2 kan . . . Dan , Selamat Beramal !
