Two Step Behind..... (At Least Not Two Billion Step Behind)

In every step of learning from A to Z as a Zoomers we have read a lots of book.

Good thing that, Wazari and Tawam were always assisting me on theories and hand-on experience. The experiment???? Are done by me. That a good news for me.

Talking about book, I have just read a book wrote by Scott Kelby. The number one bestselling author of a computer book in the world. Indescribable fact and guidance, my advise is just read it. For me as a beginner, the book has assist me a lots.

The Digital Photography Book has taught me a lots in zoomers life. Taught me how to be amateur (at least). For me, "At least I Was Two Step Behind, and not Two Billion Step Behind".

Wassalam.

Blaze of Glory-Young Sniper II

I still remember a favourite song intro of mine by Bon Jovi in the movie of Young Guns II.

Kiefer Sutherland (Doc Scurlock) : "You are not A God...."

Emilio Estevez (Billy The Kids) : "Why don't you pull the trigger and find out....."

This intro means everything in zoomers sniper life. The "are not God..." They just somebody who"pull a trigger and find out the outcome. A picture that mean everything for life.

This is not a story about how the west was born.... that related to Billy the Kids and his friend.

--------o0o--------

This is my intro AP life story (the beginning)... the weapon (my camera and my equipments) I used to snipe.

• My Favourite Colt/Revolver

NIKON DSLR D90. Release : 27-Aug 2008

Single-lens reflex.

12.3 mil effective pixel

1/4000 max shutter

30 min shutter

Weight : 620g (without battery, memory card and cap)

• My Favourite Barrel

I love to use the tally and wide barrel to snipe. Just aim and pull the trigger and find out.

• My Holster

My Holster"Lowepro Primus Minimus AW Camera Backpack" is mainly for all Nikon Model including D90. More detail about this bag can be referred to the website related.

• My Black Bullets

No specific think about this bullet. Just bought for my personal purpose. Bought in 2 units.

• My amour

It just a 13 inch MACPro for totally personal for me.

Those are my favourite weapon for the year of 2009. I do believe that nothing is easier than do something that related with your life.

Next Step for AP instead of AF.....

A month ago.....

Azmi (One of a MDoI's zoomers) has snapped me up for two shot of pictures. And 2 days after, Tawam has touched the picture up for the purpose of freshening and smooth the picture mood.. It was looks nice, smart and photogenic.

A week later.....

Amir (My ex-roommate during KPI Course) mentioned me about picture taking and making money from photography (His brother, actually).

2 days after....

I have started to prepare a research of "Sumber Pendapatan Dari 'Photography'-Freelance Photographer". Purposely for zoomers life that I planned. For references purposes, I have dropped by to a few bookstores (Popular Bookstore was my favourite). I bought "Making Money From Photography In Every Conceivable Way" by Steve Bavister.

2 days ago....

The research has completely done with all the cost, cash flow, running capital and profit forecast. I won't reveal the Cost Involved, BEP, the Running Capital and the Profit Forecast in this blog. The project purposely for my personal used in the near future.

During my research.......

I also bought a few magazine for references :-

1. Scrapbook etc. Photography,
2. Digital Camare Magazine,
3. Photography Focus Guide, and;
4. Etc.

A number of Book for simple and hands on reading :

1. Adobe Photoshop Element 3.0,
2. Digital Photography by Steve Luck,
3. Everyday Photoshop for Photographers by Julie King's, and;
4. Etc.

Talking about people who behind my inspiration :-

• Wazari

This guy inspired me allots. His touch of aesthetic is my inspirations. Just drop to his blog and flickr then you will know. To discuss about this guy you need a billion words to describe. Personally, I know a bit about this guy. But, personally about him, he is a monster in his arena. He has created a phenomena of new comers of zoomers. Phenomena of lens sniper. Phenomena of 'amatpro' (amateurs and professional) zoomers. That's the guy that I know, since this middle of the year.

• Tawam

He is a positive motivate guy. Also an 'amatpro' in his field. Handy hand for help and a professional advisor. He have his own flickr. Professionally I give him 'A' for positive motivation on my future planning.

Finally, I made it to the end. Hoping that my dream come true. For professional advise and positive motivator.... Thanks. For Eley, I'm totally Love You.

Ops. AP stand for Amateur Photographer and AF is for Accountant and Finance Profession.

Wassalam.

Photographer CA18761 Intro for New Blogging

I don't know where to start actually.

Ok... Firstly, I start with ...... Now, I have a new blog to be managed for the year of 2009. Done!!!. Acctually, I 'm not new blogger in this blogging arena. Today, continuously I'm still managing my own blog on government policies, procedures and rules since 5 years ago (My references for my PTKs).

~~~~o0O0o~~~~

Furthermore, this blog was born because of a positive jealousy with the pro flickr like Wazari Wazir and a skilled zoomers like Rezduan Salleh (a.k.a. Tawam). These people were born with touch of art. A touch of feel. A touch of aesthetics. Friendly speaking, I called them "SIFU" with salutation (but decline to have it).

Redzuan Salleh (Left) and Wazari Wazir (Right) - At the Lower Peak of Mount Kinabalu

Knowing them, is a lighter starter of Zooming Life. A fuel for my IT and MAC Life. These are the arts that is totally I have lost for several years.

Talking about the profs like them, I only know Wazari Wazir at the 3rd year of my serving with MDoI. What a loss of time? Via SMSs I've chat with this guy for so many time (except Tawam, sometime with a cup of coffee somewhere in KL).

Honestly Wazari, his touch of art (on Stolen Moment, Portraiture / Surreal, When Nature and Beauty Collide, and many more) has started my engine and confident in zoom life. He is a mania of Adobe Photoshop CS and MAC. It was an honor to know them. Thanks bro..... for the coincident experiences, and plus with all of your impressive lesson. Anyway.... that the beginning of a beginner zoomers like me. And, I do hope that the share of experience will be forever.

Some picture that belong to Wazari Wazir (Asking for the right to publish via phone) for infors.
