Photography Outing : KLCC

This isn't exactly 100% a full photography outing... but it's a good day, went out with Elly and met a new photography friend Wee Seng~ =)


Ps: Some without my blog address are special so you can click on them for a full size view~ their supposed to direct you to my flickr account, but if they don't... erm... you can click here... enjoy =)

Elly wanted to watch Sell Out! so... decided to join her~ she was late so she asked me to find her friend Wee Seng first, but didn't know how he looked like so spent my time in Kinnokuniya at the chinese photography books section, I have to admit I still like the asian photography style... especially those Taiwan and Japanese picture taking styles~ it's so simple yet has such an amazing feel to it~ fell in love with this Japanese book where it's all just pictures of cats wearing different clothings... Japanese cats are beautiful... but once turned the book over...

*WAHSEH!!!*

RM89.90...!?!?!

+Puts book back on shelf and walks away+

*sigh*

Anyways this guy was there beside me checking out those photography books too... and in the end when Elly came only found out the guy standing beside me all along was Wee Seng... such a coincidence 0.0

Well during lunch they both were discussing and talking about film cameras'... and though I'm using a DSLR I feel kinda out-dated -_-"

Planning on getting a film camera, not for no reason... but since film still does produce images that's beyond digital quality... thought of getting one myself some day to try... film sounds fun =)
Well we had few hours till the movie starts... so just walked around the KLCC park... Malays all over the place.... =.=
This was the only flower remaining... the rest is dead...
Both of their film camera's~~ =)

After walking for some time, and not being able to find some nice things to shoot... we ended up at the playground, and there was this little ang mo girl running around the place... oh man she looked cute =)
Then Elly just went up to her and asked if she could take her picture, and then she did... she's brave =)

Then later her sister and brother came along too, and she took pictures of them, lucky her~ she must've gotten all the nice shots~ while Wee Seng and me just looked... you know photography requires alot of guts and confidence to approach someone to ask if you can photograph them?? Most of the time we lose out in some great shots because of fear~

Gotta try to overcome this... -_-"
But I did eventually capture a shot of her myself...

Later on the three of them were crawling inside a tunnel, and the composition and everything just looked wonderful, only problem is that their butts were facing me and it wasn't going to be a nice picture taking of people's butts... waited for them to turn around, and they didn't... rather they ran off... =.=

After awhile the parents were giving us a weird look... I mean who wouldn't if you saw your own kids being photographed by strangers.... so off we went~~ (gotta get myself a telelens...)
Old.... erm.... donno... just the thing beside the swing~
Found this metalic ball on the bridge in the park... kinda interesting how it made a nice reflection of the twin towers behind~ so had to take pictures of it =)
Yeah!!

Ahh well... after that we watched Sell Out.... I am still feeling the damage it has done to my mind.. and still recovering from it so shall be speechless and commentless on it -_-"

By the time the movie was done it was already around 8:30pm... mmm... looked like it just rained, so we took another trip to the park~
Hmmm.... everything else looks so different at night huh??

Wee Seng said there was one time where the twin tower's lights shot out blue color... mmm.... sounds fantastic....
You know... using my kit lens which has a zoom range of 18-55mm... I'm really kinda shocked how it could zoom to so close... but still~ have to get myself a zoom lens later on =)
Wonder how it'll feel like crossing the bridge.... hmmmm =)
Back to the metalic ball... and it looks oh so fabulous after the rain has wet it and how it still reflects beautifully =)
Wee Seng said a long exposure would look nice... erm... I'm not so sure about that...

Yeah after that we had to go off to our separate ways... cousin called for mamak, so they would be passing by Taman Jaya's LRT station so told them to fetch me from there... since the LRT station from KLCC is a Putra line and it'll go back straight to Taman Jaya, so don't have to switch stations to Star and then go back home... Thank God!!

Got back kinda early around 9:30pm... but they haven't left their house cause they were still waiting for other friend to come... so thought of just waiting inside the LRT station since it's safer, no mat rempits here~ XD

But boring lo... whole station empty, and nobody... so... hmmm... oh well~ took out 50D and hopefully can capture some nice shots~

Was lazy to whip out the tripod cause it might look weird, so just did everything else hand held.... mmm.... not easy....
It's not coming out the way I want it to look like though...
Kept failing though... and you know you've only got at least 2-3 changes before the train zooms off again...
After not sure how many trains I've only started to get the hang of it~
So I got to a corner, rolled up like a ball, and set the camera to 2 seconds and just tried to be as steady as I can... surprisingly kinda surprised with how sharp the image turned out to be, especially with the different light trails coming from the train~~
Mmm you look fantastic!! XD

But would be better if I had like a model standing there though... ahh well you can't have everything in life =)

Got a phone call from them... and it was time to leave~ oh yeah!!
Good bye~ =)
But... fooiyoh... a bit scary lo nobody wan once went down... ticket counter also nobody there... -_-"
Quiet.... wonder if it's haunted~~ =)
But either way... it looks nice empty =)

Not really a true photography outing, but I got myself some nice pictures, got to know a new photography friend, will go out with him one day to take pictures though... and learned alot of new things~ I'm tired, but it's all good... =)

It's an interesting day~ shall be looking forward to what comes next~ XD
