hero

Picnik collage
ph : William Tjhia

Questions that have been arising lately :
"What camera are you using?" and "How do you edit your photos?"
I guess, I'm gonna answer those two questions now.

But before that, I'd like to introduce you to my college attire, which consist of oversized, denim and running shoes. So I'm not that all-the-time-dressy kinda girl, mind you. Anyway, I'm having a photo-hunt session with my class last week. Here's the good thing about Art & Design that I've found so far : PHOTOGRAPHY class. Well... anyway, this is a shot taken by William Tjhia, my classmate. Superb shots. Me likey. I look A-okay, even when the truth is I'm all sweaty.

the answer to the first question: say hello to my little Nikon D3000. The hero behind all of my photos, and as you see.. Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 is the heroine behind all of my dopiest photoworks.
Second question: oh well.. you know, as always, only Adobe Photoshop could produce such a quality. I suggest you to play with layers, colors and lightning. That's all I could say.

And if you want, you could check out my latest contribution to Tobi's Blog on How to Style Sweaters for Fun Casual Outing. I know there are some grammatical error, but do forgive me.
Hereby, I bid you my goodbye.

i have that lens too. it does amazing job. i'd love to have the 50mm f/1.2 but it's still a bit too pricey for me. i'd always try it in stores and the background just gets all creamy. love it :) haha

I know the D3000 doesn't have an internal AF motor and the Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 isn't a DX lens so it doesn't have a built in AF motor... so basically, what I'm asking is do you manually focus every single shot you take?

Roya said...

Also, that first picture of you is absolutely stunning.

You are so, so charming.

claradevi said...

It's cute, you know, for being a jeans & sneakers girl. Most of the time I found it comfortable to do photograph while wearing flat shoes, so that count too. Lovely pics :)

Miy said...

50mm is always the best for detailing, no? nice photographs you got there!
