of being,





ye itu saya diatas itu,
yes i am a photographer in the making, 
insyaAllah

for current,
sgt ironic kan if now days, if nampak someone with camera,
i mean real big camera, org dah panggil photographer, its just so phenomenal, its like ramai sangat, terlalu ramai, sometimes it does making me rase mcm penat nak belajar about photo, just feeling so unreal sebab org tak belajar sampai degree pun boleh buat work mcm aku buat, gitu lah dlm otak ni pikir, but just let me clear something, bile lelama pikir, there is few differents between belajar secara formalnya dan a self-taught photographer, memang ada bezanya, maybe susah nak dilihat but once if you guys have a time to observe about it, you might realize it someday,


i dont want to list down it here what the pros and cons,
the different and what's not, sebab nanti menyakitkan hati sesetengah pihak,
which i think its not appropriate ways to be in this creative industry,


tapi there is one reminder about it,
our beloved creative photography industry is no cheap, like seriously no cheap,
truthfully we have tons of talented and promising photographers, but its just because of some mistakes and negatives characteristic from the different types of photographers, it does making it looks cheap and dirty, sorry if it may sound harsh, but just realize it and think about it again, its really annoyed and itu yg tak best pasal the industry which i think kadang malas nak to be in the industry kadang tu, because maybe i am not a competitive person kot, and i hates making people feeling awkward or ape-ape yg menyakitkan hati but, its just not cool lah for making those kind of feels, because as far as i concern,
photography is fun you know
;)


kadang bila bace my junior word on seeing so many photographers these days,
kesian pun ade, ade yg cakap 'those instant photographer baru belajar tak sampai three years dah dapat job beribu bagai, yg kami belajar photo bertahun-tahun lamanya susah nak dapat job beribu bagai', well what can i say, itu semua rezeki lah dik, dimana ada kemahuan dan rezeki disitu lah ade job ye dak? im just wanna make it positive lah aite, is not that im supporting the junior or the other side, but nak conclude kan yg kalau kita rajin sure kita bole berjaya,
insyaAllah,


me myself is a photography student for more than three years,
dah nak abis dah pun in less than few months and will be entering the industry level soon, pun kadang takut because it is challenging for me, through out my journey, in order to survive in this photography career its just how you bring yourself in it, kalau kita berani and kalau kita ada semangat yg kuat, memang boleh berjaya, and of coz rajin pun kene ade, sebab photography is all bout exploring and learning, also how you connect to others and how you preserve the moment in photographs and most importantly how strong your photograph is. Preserving the moment to bukan main bantai je, but its all must come your view which is from your eyes, brain and heart,
all in all semuanya connected


photography does thought me alot on appreciating peoples and surroundings,
for me of being a person behind the camera is not for you to showing off or taking it a one step closer to get market or whatever but for you to look captured the positive vibes and the bright sides each of the moment, bukan utk dijaja tapi harus dirakam dgn niat yg baik,
thats it,


one important thing that i learned through photography formally was,
i was taught to be a photographer also
a visualizer,


diri ni bukan mahu riak atau membongkak tetapi
seni fotografi itu ialah sesuatu yg indah dan
rakamlah sesuatu dgn niat yg ikhlas dan tenang,
insyaAllah gambar yg dihasilkan akan lebih difahami,
dan sejuk mata memandang,


"Dengan kamera dia akan boleh masuk syurga
jika gambar dia bawa manusia cinta kepada Islam,"
-Ustaz Azhar Idrus

p/s:
from my deepest of my heart,
ampun maaf jika kata diatas buat terasa hati,

"our beloved creative photography industry is no cheap, like seriously no cheap," ini bezanya orang yang ikhlas menghargai dan yang ikhlas mencari rezeki.

haha. walaupun aku ni bukan la photographer. tapi agak menakutkan la sebernanya bila tgk camera tu dah mcm gadget penting untuk semua orang

sebenarnya nak ckp pasal selfthought dan academic ni pun payah sbb pernah sekali aku dibukak kan mata pasal perbalahan ni. like you said, nak di besar kan cerita ni pun penat

to be truth , for me la. sesiapa saja yang berada dalam industri seni sebernarnya harus menghormati setiap estetika yang ada and menghormati yang lain

banyak jugak pengalaman cakap kedai kopi yang aku dapat. yang masih fresh mcm haritu aku ada minum2 dengan setiausaha persatuan orang buta malaysia. pandangan dia terhadadap org seni ni dia cakap, "artis xkan boleh bergabung, sbb xda sapa nak tunjuk yang dia tu xhebat" aduh betul jugak.

mungkin pandangan aku pada banyak bahagian, mcm photo,painting,graphic dll sbb aku x ada kebolehan dalam mana2 pun. so aku ni jadi mcm pandangan lebih pada keseluruhan sebab semuanya aku sayang. and kesemuanya sekarang ada masalah yang sama. takut kan, tapi tulah hakikat.

aku lagi takut sbb, aku nak enter industri ni. tapi dengan ability yang aku ada. zero.

haha! sorry la panjang na bebel sbb lately ni mcm nak bebel je. ke slalu bebel! haha mungkin rindu ngn kau kot.

syukur jugak la ada pasangan yang bole aja beza antara belajar sendiri and x. haha *outoftopic.
