About myself & my photography, & why I start blogging again


It has been 8 months since my last post! It was mainly because of I am lazy to write. Yes, I am really not good at writing.
Anyway, I have been thinking to continue photo blogging. This is because I have many to say about my shots like:
  • how I take the shot,
  • story behind the shot,
  • difficulties of taking a shot,
  • doubt about photography,
  • my like and dislike of a shot,
  • how can I do better,
This is mainly for my photography diary purpose, so that I can refer back to them anytime. If I could make some friends here, who can give me some useful comment to clear any of my doubt, or how I can do better, then that would be a bonus :)
About myself:
I use the following gears:

  • Canon 450D
  • Panasonic Lumix GF1
  • Panasonic Pancake 20mm f1.7
  • Canon 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM
  • Canon 50mm f1.8
  • Canon 85mm f1.8 USM
About my photography:

Below are the photography field that I am currently interested in:
1) Long exposure seascape, blue hour, star trail
  • I feel comfortable to shoot nature. I love advanture, explore new photographic location.
  • I mainly use Canon 450D + Canon 10-22mm for these. Usually I use a few filters too (Cokin GND, Hoya polarizer, Hoya ND400)
2) Interesting people on streets & animals
  • I feel not comfortable shooting strangers as I am affraid of them. But I wish I could capture the beauty of people.
  • I like to use Canon 450D + Canon 50mm f1.8 & Canon 85mm f1.8 for these. I also use Panasonic GF1 + 20mm f1.7.
Below are a few of my favorite shots from each of my gears:
