with Nagamas

I was very lucky last weekend where i can got a chance to visit one for the biggest Arowana breeding farm in Bukit Merah.



When it come to photographing live fish such as the Arowana fish, we do need a lots of patient. Its not an easy task photograhing Arowana, trust me!

This is really a big Red Arowana!



An adult Malaysian Golden Cross Back Arowana successfully jumped out & escaped from the net. Oh yes, Arowana are really good jumpers!

Again, i wish i can have the chance again to visit an Arowana farm again together with my camera. Its a really good experience each time i photographing the DRAGON FISH!

   

My 15 Black And White Photography

   

Many of my friend asked me why Black and White? Landscape / street with black and white?? PORTRAIT with black and white??? WHY BLACK AND WHITE???

My answer to them are, yes, i do like colors but it seems as though black and white images are making something of a comeback of late as digital camera owners rediscover the beauty of mono images. And it do add lots of attitude in to a picture with black and white.









Some times, I do find that colors can be terribly distracting in some images and can take the focus away from your subject. I do portrait work over the weekend and find that taking the color out of an image lets the subject speak for themselves. 

  

And it do add a lots of dramatic emotion when its in black and white. And of course when come to high ISO, i do feel photographing in black and white do look acceptable to me with all those grainy look with the classic film kind of look.
