Photography 001

"Photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them." - Elliott Erwitt

I'm not really the type of person that is into photography, sometimes I just don't understand how some of my friends admire photography, to me it just all looks normal, but that part of me has come to past. After taking photography class for this semester, I actually kinda got into photography, trying to understand more about the concept of taking good photos, learning about lightings and all sorts of skills to capture a good photo. When I first started to hold the camera and take photos for my assignments, I actually got really amazed by how photography works in so many ways. It's not just taking ordinary photos, its all about expressing the author's feelings, emotions through a photo. In photography there is just a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.

This is one of the photos I took for my first photography assignment :) (PS: I don't own the materials except for the glasses :p)

So, I've actually have a challenge for myself, which is to constantly update my blog with photography. In some ways, I believe this could help me to get better and better at it! To all the professional photographers out there, do feel free to leave feedbacks on my photos, that way I can learn more on how to take even better pictures! Stay tuned as there will be more to come! Cheers :)
