Long exposure?

End of last year, i bought a magazine named Digital camera. There is a lot of information and also beautiful pictures taken by amateur or semi-amateur photographers around the world. Page by page, then come into one of section, Long exposure. I didnt know what the real meaning of it. What came through into my mind was, the technique which use long shutter speed. And then, there got one picture looks like this with blurry line movement:

I looked at picture like this with the moving effect, and then i said, "This one is easy. They put camera on the tripod and twist it". How stupid i am that time. It wasnt like what i thought. It more than that which need more technique. After that, i kept searching about star trail in the internet and then i know that i'm totally wrong. Since then, i excited about this star trail and lead me to bought some equipments, trying to capture those star trail.

There are many things you can do with long exposure. You can look some of good picture of long exposure here. For example, star trail and light painting. One of what i'm doing now is star trail capture. It is really fun!! Here, i'll share with you what you need for long exposure. Before that, you need some of gadget to do long exposure such as:
  1. Camera with bulb mode- Nowadays, all the digital camera (except compact camera) such as DSLR or SLR have this kind of mode. You need it because it allow you to set different exposure when you press the shutter. You can set it up to several hours. However, keep in mind that mirror of camera might get hot! 
  2. Tripod-I bet, you cant hold your camera up to 30minutes. What you can do is bu one tripod! Cheap one fine, but if you really need and always use it, just buy a good quality one. There got two type of tripod which is pan head and ball head. Both type of tripods have pros and cons. 
  3. Shutter release- One of important equipment that you must have. When you press the shutter in bulb mode, you have to keep pressing it as long as the shutter open. Therefore, this shutter release can help you in this. Go find one in ebay or local camera store. 
After you got all of these, then you can start playing with long exposure. It is really FUN!!

 Selamat Mencuba!! =P

Nothing to do!

Classes have started and i was getting bored with what i have. I just had three 2 hours class in 3 days (in each days). Surely you can imagine it. I was thinking to get a job and then i started writing up my resume. Living alone is not that easy coz you have to think what to do in every single day you had. I woke up at 9am in the morning, surfed internet, watched some movies and then went to class. Nothing to do! 

Sometimes i went to Kak Ja house and stayed there with kids and played with them. It fun actually to play with kids when the you are alone and feel stress with you got. I went there for 3-4 times in a week after finish my class or during weekend. Besides, i also hanged out with my friend, Waseem, went to KFC or Morwell, for eat and lepak-lepak. Then going home. That was quite bored!

Regarding to my study, it not that fun to go class alone with some locals. Plus, they also not talk that much. Except one this girl, who cant stop talking. Seriously, she kept talking with someone in class (she prefer guys, but why not me? Damn!) included lecturer. She is very talkative. I just had one friends in that class, named Rubi. She's from Malaysia too as well as me, one of student from Monash Sunway. Oh well, at least i have some friend in that class to talk and discuss about that subject.

"After i got a job, it changed everything..."

After a few months..

Dah lame aku menyepi. Tak terasa nak update pon blog ni, sampai lah saat ni. Seminggu lepas aku dah tukar design. Nampak gayenye ade mood baru nak update blog. Kali ni akan aku selitkan dengan skill-skill yang aku ade dalam photoghraphy ni. Bukan sebab ape, atas tujuan nak berkongsi sesame kitee...:) 

Dalam sebulan ni lah aku banyak hidup sesorang. Kengkawan dah balik sume dah. Dah grad kan. Tinggal aku sorang nih. Ntah ape-ape. Tapi banyak jugak aku belajar dari duk sorang-sorang ni. Nanti aku cecite satu persatu. Buat mase sekarang, aku harap aku dah grad lah. InsyaAllah sume result sem ni lulus. Dah lame aku study, 17tahun aku belajar. Abis jugak. Tapi rase skejap je. Kalau nak diceritakan, aku ingat lagi time skolah rendah, time aku darjah 5 kot. Cikgu tanye pasal belajar kat uni, pastu keje. Kalau tak silap aku, taun tu taun 2000. Sebelas taun lepas. Perghhh! Lame tuh. Tapi aku masih ingat. Bagus-bagus. Salah satu petanda cell otak masih ok.

Exam pon dah abis. Ape lagi. Cuti cuti malaysia lah. Tak sabar nak pegi jejalan. Tapi sorang-sorang wat mende. Ciss! Recruitment! Sape nak pegi jejalan ngan aku! Encik Andoc? haha!
