About the Photo:
With me hibernating for 7 months+ in Cosplay Photography this year, preppin' for this year's Snapshot Project 4 is really tough. I usually spend more than a month organising a shoot and there I was, loaded with company projects and other stuff -- bonus disaster was the heavy rain and flood.

With less than 2 weeks to spare, I tried to plan something that will ignore the weather condition and there, I end up with an Underwater shoot (easy for me to say but hey its my first time doing it so I don't know yet what to expect). Luckily I was able to find a reliable friend to look for a decent pool to shoot on -- the black and white tile was just a bonus, its really unexpected to get a pool that fits on the theme "Alice in Wonderland".

During the shoot, most of my plans failed so I have to recompose my settings, composition, etc --- lots of things were unexpected. Still thanks to ~yefa's patience, we were able to get few decent output after 80+ tries YEP! YOU READ IT CORRECTLY! EIGHTY PLUS TRIES. We are in the pool from 1pm to 8pm non-stop >_<

So yeah, here's one of the output~
Code Geass is one of my favorite anime of all time so yeah, I tried to rewrite the scene here with the question WHAT IF..? From the OVA, the one that is imagining the whole wonderland thing was Lelouch.

WHAT IF we rewrite the story with Nunnally's view point? With her little memory of the WORLD..?

That's the thing I kept in my mind while doing the shoot... I wasn't able to push that STORY REWRITE thing that much because of the technical difficulty we encountered... but we tried.. :3

Anyway, here is the output and my wildcard entry for the competition entitled:
"Torn Between Reality; A Blind Girl's Interpretation of Illusion"
Because I really love these water details that seems like boundaries of the two worlds and the arrangement of tiles (which I've got by luck) which creates an illusion (which is unusual for a girl who is blind since illusion usually incorporates your eyesight).

PS : This one was able to made it to the Top 20 of this year's competition!

The rest of my entries for snapshot project 4 was shot in Fantasy Quest 3: Live On!


Write up is in here:
Season EnderYellow~! Its been awhile since I made a write-up for my gallery (more than a year?).
2013 has been a very busy year for me because of work and freelance (mobile app development) --- causing me to hibernate in photography for more than seven (7) months.
Aside from work, my favourite lens (Tokina UWA) got himself some fungus and my EOS 1000D got injured (like hot-shoe problem and sensor dust) --- as a result, I end up rejecting every invitation because I don't have any gear to use on --- and it took me awhile to send it to a server centre because of tight schedule
On a brighter side, I think this incident is nice because I still have some awful backlogs to catch-up with from 2012.
PICKING A NEW CAMERA
SO FAST FORWARD: Finally I got myself an editing device (a Macbook Pro for obvious reasons) and a new camera (Fuji X100S) because of my freelance.
Lots of my friends are asking me :
"Why pick a non-interchangeable camera…?"
"Why pick X100S..?"
