The struggling (and bumbling) photo blogger

Straight aheadI am not a photographer, not even an amateur. I cannot even consider myself as a hobbyist. So what am I doing starting my photo blog?!

Four years ago, I bought a digital camera which I needed for my business of doing personalized items. The business somehow didn’t materialize, but of course I still have my camera with me. Low end brand it may be, but still it can capture photos.

And lately, I find myself taking more pictures. I began to notice things that I never paid attention to before, so I always take photos of them, freezing them in time with the help of my camera.

I don’t know techniques, I don’t understand lighting. I don’t know the rules. I just point-and-shoot and capture whatever is on the camera’s eye view, and I get whatever I get.

Sometimes I’m satisfied with the pictures, sometimes I’m disappointed. But most of the time, I don’t really care. I got the picture, I’ll just think of a reason for taking it later.

These pictures are now really growing in numbers, and I believe a photo blog would be the best way for me to share them and the stories behind them.

They may not seem like worthy for some… but in my mind’s eye, they are.

    [...] 2010 also gave birth to my photo blog, that rarely gets updated at the moment. It was also this year that I got an invitation to cover my first event as a blogger, and it’s a fashion event!  What an unlimited experience it was! [...]
