Moving to a new place

Friday, June 25, 2010

Dear visitors and followers,

I will be moving out from Blogspot to my own domain at http://www.frozenlite.com. At the moment, the site is still under construction and should be operational by August 2010. Until then, I won't be updating this site anymore. If you would like to see my latest photos please proceed to my Flickr site here. All of my images/photos are copyrighted. If you wish to buy yourself a print, kindly proceed here. If you wish to get a softcopy, all of my images are available for purchase via Getty Images. All you need to do is visit my Flickr page and at the photo page, there will be a link to license the image via Getty Images.

UPDATE: My blog is now up and can be accessed at http://diary.frozenlite.com

And last but not least, I will be conducting a workshop (hopefully on a regular basis) on HDR and DRI. Details are still being worked out but if you like to find out more about it, drop me a line vedd -[at]- frozenlite -[dot]- com


Yours truly,
vedd

Theme: Boats

Saturday, May 10, 2008

Many thanks to Awe2020 for bringing Daniel and I to Bagan Pasir, Kuala Selangor. It was quite a party with fellow Flickrites such as ProfKMS, Pjoe, Wan Husmi and sseme. It was a beautiful sunset and a complimenting village.

Theme: Vacated Buildings

Sunday, April 27, 2008

As the theme suggested, this is when Daniel, Ariffin, SPNikon and me were doing some urban decay shots. The location was Pekeliling Flats, since some of the blocks were already vacated. Provided some really good view of architectural geometry and a view of Kuala Lumpur.

Waiting

OK, here's a little good news. Some of my pictures now are available at my Imagekind as prints - from small to extra large prints. If you like my those pictures, don't be shy and just buy a few :D
Also if you are keen on helping me getting some of the lenses, do buy the prints as well! :-)

Off course not all the pictures in my Flickr are there, but if you really want to get prints (or soft copies for commercial use) of pictures at my Flickr, which are not at ImageKind, just drop me an email at jhar74 {at} gmail [dot] com. We can work things from there!

Theme: Buildings and Architectures

Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Had a lovely time going out with great friends last week. Off course it was a photography outing! I was with Daniel, Ariffin and awe2020 taking photos around the As-Syakirin Mosque in the KLCC park. We also did went to Putrajaya for some night shots together. This time around it was kinda special for me - I got myself the lens that I was dreaming about, the Canon EF-S 10-22mm! Wide has a new meaning with this lens, seriously! Couldn't be happier hehe.. All these were shot using the 10-22mm super wide lens.

Theme: Urban Decay :: Part Two

Monday, March 24, 2008

A continuation from the previous post during Daniel's visit to KL. There were a lot of interesting subjects in that particular abandoned house. I think I'm gonna re-visit it in the morning and hope there will some rays of light poking through into the house sometime soon!

Theme: Urban Decay :: Part One

Tuesday, March 18, 2008

Woaahh... it's been a while since my last update. Well, it wasn't intentional. I found myself somewhat less inspired - thanks to the hazy and rainstorm that occurs almost everyday! It's a really killing my mood of getting that shot of the day!

But when a fellow flickr buddy and a great photographer, Daniel, was in town again, it boosted my enthusiasm again! So, what were we shooting? As the theme suggested - an abandoned house. I've located this particular old and creepy (eerie to be exact) at the outskirts of KL, and said to myself this place is perfect for us! So, on that day, meself, Daniel, Ariffin, Rocket, Ayul and Mr. Nordin head to that creepy place and within minutes, everyone was shooting away!

More pictures to come on Part Two! More picture can also be viewed at my Flickr Site.

Theme: Long Exposures

Friday, February 15, 2008

Pheww.. it's been a hectic week for me. A wedding covered during the weekends, and most of all is work since it's the time of the year where I need to submit my performance and evaluated by my peers. Anyway, Daniel was back in KL not long ago and this time around we were going around doing long exposures around Putrajaya.

Here some of the shots that I've posted at my Flickr.

Sorry for not updating the blog for a while :-) OK.. Back to editing wedding pictures, since it pays quite a lot :D

Theme: Highlands Vacation

Tuesday, January 15, 2008

It's been a while since we really had a family vacation. With daily routines, we just can't find a perfect window for that much awaited escapism. And last Saturday, we finally manage to pack up our things and just drove to Genting Highlands for our short vacation.

Glittering

That family portrait from the eye of an infant.

Top of the world

It's a long way down.

Now, where should we go next? I have this dire need to photography the beach, with waves hitting the rocks under the low lights of dawn and dusk. That will be awesome! Soon, soon!

Theme: Digital Blending

Friday, January 04, 2008

Just wanted to try out digital blending instead of the normal HDR processing in Photomatix. Seems like whenever I did HDR processing on water flows with slow shutter, the results were not satisfactory. So this is digital blending done in Photoshop by blending 3 exposures. Hope you like it as much as I do :-)

Refreshed!

Flows

To those who would like to try out digital blending, I would recommend http://www.thelightsrightstudio.com/digital-darkroom.htm. They have pretty neat tutorials and action scripts. Off course I would add some of extra processing on my pictures but the blending tutorial is the base on what I've done.

Theme: Decay & Abandoned

Wednesday, November 21, 2007

I think it's better that I go by theme for each entry from now on. Not that I don't have anything to write, but a picture will talk even more :-) So here's the theme for this particular post - anything related to decadence and abandon :-) For this particular theme, I went out with Ipin to Glenmarie for an abandoned complex. The next session was taken at what used to be the Sungai Buloh Leprosy Center. On this particular outing, I was joined by Ab4h and Marjan - Marjan has a very funny approach at telling this particular adventure, available here. :-)

With Ipin at an abandoned comlex in Glenmarie. He's framing his shot.

Escape is through here. This is the basement parking of the abandoned complex in Glenmarie.

Lonely pillars. This is the basement parking of the abandoned complex in Glenmarie.

Age of Decadence. This is taken at the used to be Leprosy Center in Sg. Buloh.

For this particular theme, I processing my images mostly as HDR and processed in Black & White. I think HDR and Black & White makes the best tones :-)

There'll be more photo outing soon with the guys, so if you wanna join, drop me an email or a comment :-)

Raya Mood, in no particular order :-)

Monday, October 29, 2007

I have no clue on what to write on this entry. So instead, I'll let the pictures do the talking, in no particular order. There must be reason when people say, a picture is worth a thousand words :P Anyway, how was your Aidil Fitri? Mine was good, considering that I'm spending my very first Aidil Fitri with junior. It's just a complete thing :-)

How do you start your day eh?
