The Taste of a Hostel.

In the memory of Hostel Life.

Non-edited picture, just the resizing and watermark on it. 

Cream-meh-heh

Twisted Mind.

A chocolate cake. It's my bro's B'Day.

Pity him gotta sing B'Day song for himself. What a fudge cake.

Squarecropped.

1. Outside the hostel, night-play-water time. (You can see the very obvious noise www.) Do not feel like wanna adjust the contrast curve of the picture.
2. Outside my house, playing with bubbles. The curve saved the picture from the blurry details.

Happy days.

What happy means?

For me, it means the freedom of drawing, and capture things/ideas
when I feel like I wanted to.

So happy that I get a lil sketch book (from Daiso) for myself. 

The old one was full with my nonsenses.

A day full with whites.

Credit to Ashley that let me snap her daisy flowers. It was a lovely photoshooting session, intention is to complete the class assignment. But in the end I did not use any of the photos in my assignment.

The first photo is the original photo with no PS involved. *_* Always love to the low saturate mode.
Still craving for prime lens. 

Filler!

Haha, actually is the announcement for the blog.

From today on, this blog url is 

scratchyVACUA.blogspot.com.

And so, the watermarks on the pictures has also changed to new url.

And, here a small pic, showing my little creatures (draw by black pen), for my friend's birthday.

It's friday! I have a six-sense telling me that I'm gonna update my blog today!

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Island Days. 2

At Pulau Lang Tengah.

Wake up in the morning/staying up late until midnight with friends, wanna see sunrise/sunset, but the resort is on the other side of the island, so we couldn't see it. What a shame.

Untitled.

Random gal figure in my room.

seldom update for these few days cuz not feeling well. My head was darn dizzy.

The Light is Running in the Air.

今天准备各种update，让大家的生活得到质的发展。
……其实只是我很纳闷自己未能进入戏院观看Looper，所以在家各种翻照片安慰自己而已。T,T

Street Lights Painting at KL.

This first pic with colours is the original picture with a little altered contrast, and the other one is the combination of two yellow street light pictures (one with denser lines and the other with lessen lines).

来一打Smaxone!!

Chinese fonts and flower mad alert~~

Song: Waiting
Artist: Smaxone
Album: The Red Album (2005)

很羞涩的摁着脸说，我是因为翻找着看完了后直想着好想摸摸糖硬糖的肌肉和头发啊的电影《Warriors》里的那首俄国人上台时的那首死亡金属嗓音的band歌（结果到现在还是无功而返Orz），然后看见了‘Smaxone’这个名字列在电影的OST的list内，然后我就怀着希望想着：“啊啊这一定就是那首歌了”，跑去油突听了Smaxone的《SmackZone》这首歌。话说，OST里写的是remix版本的，可是到处都找不到所谓P.I.G Original Remix版本，所以我就听了原版的《SmackZone》。

结果俺惊为天人（跪在地上）。
我被整首歌煞到了啊！！！！（泪目望天）一开始的鼓声跟电子吉他结合起来的progressive rock的华丽感真让我愉悦wwww。尤其是chorus后的那一段BG音乐solo，艾玛节奏感太棒了好吗！！（开始苏了起来）

听完了后开始搜索起了Smaxone的各种歌曲，发现他们给我的初次印象就如The Red和Chevelle，听过了他们的专辑《Regression》之后才发现这几支乐队的乐风完全不像啦，觉得像只是一种错觉啊（摁脸）。Smaxone虽然是2000年后茁起的乐队，可是音乐风格会让我想起比较久远的七、八十年代Hard Metal Rock乐队，比如，让我最近被一大堆新乐团的Alternative Punk Rock blabla 神马的量产风格中顿时感觉清新了起来（并没有）。最重要的是这支乐团的歌曲让我觉得满耐听。

然后我就开始google起了乐团队员的样貌然后有一种预感主唱一定是光头的我也不知道为什么Orz。结果原来他们是这样子的：

虽然不知道主音是哪一位但是都好面有没有^q^。我还在研究分辨着他们的member所以暂时之可以list出他们的乐手位置：


Michael Bogballe - Disorted Vocals 
Claus Lillelund - Clean Vocals 
Casper Skafte - Guitars, Programming 
Thomas "Obeast" Koefoed - Bass 
Brylle Rasmussen - Drums

他们的国籍不是美国，而是丹麦噢。
点这里去他们的myspace可以参看他们队员的萌生态生活照哦~

Island Days 2.

09/04/2012 at Terengganu.

Some street views of a town at Terengganu.

Stuffies

Stuffs around my house!
...kinda sorry for not update for 2 days =_=

these are the unknown dry leaves that my mum hang on the rack. lol

Randomness again.

Good morning, Mr. Window's Lock.
There is a street lights photo underneath this picture, hence the colours.

Dark valley

31/12/12011 Housing area.

I admit I miss 2011. 2012 sucks.
Little brightness adjustments involved.

九皇爷誕

22/10/2012 at 南天宮安邦九皇爺。

Today I learned that "when snapping, no shilly-shally", if not, you will miss that moment that you will never find again. <----马后炮 Orz

There's a bunch of people at the temple, it's hard for me to snap wide and clean and clear pictures of the temple, so I try to make the photo look wider with photoshop with some tricks.

There was man presenting a Chinese style drama for the unseen audience on the temporary stage. Since it was a cloudy day, I couldn't snap the sky and the performer clearly under the low-light condition (I didn't want to set the ISO higher to avoid the appearance of the noise).

Carry me Far Far away.

Few pix and words to record down the short journey.

09/2011 At Cameron Highland 

Taken with Nikon COOLPIX S2500, the details and the brightness of the photos were not great, hence I use PS to enhance the photos. Kindly click the pix to view larger image.

Cameron Highland is a place full with fresh air and natural plant views. Such a enjoyable place for a city corrupted person like me.  Visited the tea garden and botanic gardens, but not manage to get down into the plantation area. 

09/2011 at Taipeng Zoo.

These were the random wild monkeys that running us haha. I can't move my eyes away from their red red butts.

Purpie.

Lil flower outside my house.
manual focus = not so...uhm...eh...you know what I mean Orz naaw.
I love manual focus, keep doing practices on this skill.
...and carving for a prime lens. ^q^

Island Days 1.

09/04/2012 at Pulau Lang Tengah.

(1)
A very memorable days spent with Ivy, Ashley, and Ashley's babe LV.
The sea was crystal clear, I am glad that the people able to maintain the cleanliness of the island.
In this post, the photos that were taken originally b&w with my dearest cam.

Randomness.

Upon the earth, and on the earth.

Shoot the Sky.

On the highway of Malaysia, sit in the car, with a camera with my hand.
Look upon the sky, and noticed the clouds with lovely shapes.
To get the shapes of the cloud more clearly, I set the F higher than usual, I think is 6~8? And since it's a bright afternoon sky, I set the ISO for this shoot at only 100.

Still discovering the deep-deep world of DSLR photography.

Flowers on the sky.

31/01/2012。

Taken at the windows of my room.
摄于我家二楼窗外。
鉴于不足够的空间让我摆设tripod固定我的相机，所以我尝试out of focus，snap the bokeh。
