Been wanting to do shots such as these for quite sometimes now. It was one of the most 'difficult' fun I've ever had . It's hard when only using props found around the house .
pehhhh nih teknik baru yang dinamakan pancutan sejajar...huhuhuhuhuhu!!! adeh la tuan syed...now i wonder, do you have a spare room in your house where you doo all these experiment. especially this new technique of yours. i love the first on, ada percikan air on the tutup botol which makes it dramatic looking.
hebat betul la tuan syed ni punya home studio... shutter laju ni, jadi ISO set berapa??? ada kaca antara subject dan kamera dan kaca tu disenikan dengan air ya???
ps-are you in japan??? dapat air aquarius tu... biasanya saya minum air ni lepas main bola... coke dah berenti minum dah...
pps-if i were an extremely rich man, id make you a studio
tunjuk ajar ku sifu! ni dah tahap gaban nye terrorist ni.. ajarlaaaaa...
re: haa.. mesti kita sekampung.. sama la dgn family saya, tak close sgt dgn belah abah.. maybe sbb mak bukan sharifah.. er.. can i have your YM or MSN.. saja nak track family.. if u dun mind though..
cekya ~ Haha... pancutan sejajar !! Hehe.. . Lebih kurang la tu. Hmmm... well, I do have a spare room to do my shootings [ni multipurpose room ni sebenarnya ] but these are not shot there. With all the splashing nanti all wet and my wife musti marah nyer..hehe.... . And yes, that 1st.one is something fun to do. It's different to me and one of the most susah nak capture.
p/s - I should have done the same masa shooting ari tu. I was drenched !! .
cekya ~ Word !! Hehe.. .
izhal ~ Home studio tu is none other than my bathroom [malu ] for these shots la... hehe... . That's the only place where I can splash whichever way I like and however I wanted to. That spray is actually from the shower. ISO saya set paling rendah i.e at 50 cause my camera ni kalau ISO naik sikit mula la byk noise. For these I was going for 'clean' image suitable I think for the title 'Refeshing' . And, nope, tak der pakai kaca dlm shot2 ni. Sebab kalau pakai kaca nanti ader byk water droplets lekat kat kaca tu. Tak cantik .
ps - Oh tidak, saya beli Aquarius tu kat Sogo KL . My energy drink? 100 PLUS. Me have not touch Pepsi and Coke for months now.... .
pps - Aper 2 pun saya doakan semoga saudara izhal dan keluarga sentiasalah dimurahkan rezeki dan dipanjangkan umur... .
CYKM ~ Hey thkssss... . Boleh la sikit2. Tu pun byk details hilang tuh .
cekya ~ EH, betul sebak la cekya. Teringat-ingat la. Pastinya kepada kamu juga akan aku lanjutkan ajakan itu... .
Dell ~ InsyaAllah, bolehhhh.... . Thks Dell for the comments.
re: Laaaa... my mum pun bukan Sharifah la. Coincidence lagi . Nanti I PM you my YM...
Halamanku ~ Thks . Glad you think so as I've put in quite an effort to shoot them .
ira ~ Thks ira. Whenever I can, I'll try to slot in a couple of so-called art pieces. Painting ke, pop art ker or just plain nonsense... hehe... Fun buat tu semua sebenarnya as it allows me to mess with all the other editing functions I don't normally use for my usual editings. Give me a good excuse to go the extreme..hehe.. .
Nanie ~ Excellent choices.. hehe.... no.7 tu is one of my fav while no.8 tu I like the editings. But what I like for both is that they are both something I had never tried before. And when I get that kind of end results for some new experimentations, I obviously got excited . Yep, despite their many 'imperfections'. Well, it's a start. A good one I hope .
p/s - Splash tu dari pancutan shower... .
FadzliAli ~ Rahsianya? Hmmm.... tak tau pulak, tapi I always ensure lowest possible ISO [sebab tak nak grain], shutter speed paling laju, use flash, use macro mode when sesuai, background jgn kasi basah, use background putih atau hitam sahaja, splash kena kasi secantik boleh, creative angles, use bright colourful objects ... hmmm... tu je la kot .
meorjay ~ Thks Meor. Cam selalu, kalau tengah datang mood, memang le rajin... hehe.... . Masa tu tekan shutter button tak berhingat-hingat langsung... haha.... .
Gambar yang menarik dan komersial....tapi cuma saya tak berapa gemar dengan promosi percuma minuman tu. Kalau boleh kasi negatif impact to that brand. Harap awak faham maksud saya.
ashburn ~ I understand and I respect your stand and in voicing it out. To me they're purely for photographic reasons, for experimenting .
p/s - Haven't heard from you for a while...
oh abg ezdy... i guess it's the advert blood i have in me kot.
ahaha
coz both pictures can be a really good advert picture tau. it's nice that way kan.
i wish i could do the same. experimenting on stuff like this.
if only im not so busy. cuti nnt kot. insyaAllah.
Nanie ~ Why, thk you Nanie for your kind and sweet words . Well, I was after that advert-like shots actually so it's nice to know you feel that way about them.
p/s - Cuti nanti, mesti try ok. Kalau ader aper2 soalan, InsyaAllah I'll help with whatever I know . Advert Designs eh? Super cool !! Your obsession is so totally justified..hehe... .
radinism ~ And you inspire me la bro. I also segan tgk your works. Thks for the encouraging comments .
i've missed so much of your entries and this one is SERIOUSLY SUPERB! love ur experiments, very creative!!!! truly wow-ed. shows that you're a risk-taker refreshing!!!!!!!!!!!! am very very very thirsty now owh, those drinks are from japan? its written in japanese
oja ~ Oja Moja !!! Hehe... I love saying that . It's like Mojo Jojo !! Haha.. . Cute. I'm digressing . So ok, you never seen it before? Me neither until I saw it at Sogo KL. It was at its supermarket, lower ground. I think this coke is the Japanese version cause it got Japanese writing all over it . I purposely look for something different, something foreign yet identifiable for these shots.
Blank81 ~ Heh heh... thks Blank81 . But I'm no cikgu la....
alynnsaripuddin ~ Missed my entries? No worries dear as they'll be there for you to check em' out whenever you have the time . Busy ye? Biasa la tu. And yes, I just love trying new things. When I see an advert, as in this case, I often wondered if I could do the same, kalau not exactly the same and cuma boleh buat about 50% or 60% of it pun I dah happy. It's a good start I suppose and given the many limitations, kira boleh la tu, Alhamdulillah . Thirsty? Have a can of Aquarius !! .Yes, I believe these are from Japan. Beli pun kat Sogo .
p/s - I think what you're doing with PhotoBorak is great. Keep it up.
-M- ~ Haha... . In a good way I hope..hehe... .
p/s - Still can't get over your 'transformation'....
Mademoiselle Ayu ~ Madame, you are too too kind and I do not know how else to convey my sincere appreciation other than to say, 'Thank you very very much'. .
iena ~ Hi iena. Buat iklan? Hish.. peralatan pun tak cukup ni ha... hehe... . Lagi pun rasanya gambar2 ni byk tak cukup syaratnya lagi.... Anyway, thks so much...
f i q u e ~ Boleh la sikit2 . My wife tak kuasa dah nak tolong..hehe... . Kena la spray sendiri. Actually letak je shower spray tu atas baldi ke, sinky ke, tak yah pegang ....haha... .
jemster ~ Thks jems . Hantar kat Coke sure kena reject lah...haha... . Anyway, thks for suggesting it. That was so nice of you la.
MFBR ~ Hey thks bro. Best buat benda cam ni. Bro, you try jugak la .
zuhri ~ Betul tu bang, sebab ilmu tu datang pun dari Dia jugak. Kalau tiada keizinan Dia, tak dpt sebarang ilmu pun. Untuk itu saya bersedia berkongsi apa saja yg saya tahu. Tapi kalau nak bukak workshop tu tak mampu la, baik dari segi pengalaman mahu pun kepakaran. Tapi kalau nak discuss secara teori boleh ajer. Lets meet up and discuss it over teh tarik . Besides, it'll give me valid reason to meet with the other partner of Redmedia .
We D a ~ They definitely worth the efforts . Even for this sort of stuff I tried to make the shoot as simple as possible, you know. I'm not about to embark on some tedious experimentations cause it'll be no fun la although, I reckon the results would be better.
wowwww abg imran..
cantik2 nya shot walaupun hanya di studio bathroom...
saya suka imej botol coca cola yg ditengah.. amat menyegarkan warnanya.
minuman aquarius tuh tak penah jumpa.. maybe kat kedai2 jepun shj..
i think once you master how to manipulate post editing.. these kind of shots are sheer easy..
well done! dari saya yg masih tak pandai2 meng'post-edit' gmbr
superb photo and nice editing and good imagination combine with good angle...dont have right word to say....thanks for your opinion about the camera and hope someday we can have coffee together.
mmhmm, i second sabishii doraiba (aka the sad driver?). if you ain't doing this for a living, part time pun okay jugak. the choice of a white background for these shots is spot on, considering you have 'refreshing' as the theme. oh, i've got a suggestion for you: why don't you do pop art style? i mean, you're already leaning that way with different color interpretations for the same picture, so why not go andy warhol, eh? the solitary coke bottle would be perfect for this!
intan ~ Hasil semburan shower tu, jenis yg boleh adjust2. Tu yg best tu. Senang nak try pelbagai jenis water spray .
morkymoqq ~ 'Studio bathroom' !!! Hahahaha.... . I like that ! I'll call it that from now on..hehe... . Yeah, I like that shot too. And yes, I believe Aquarius can only be found kat kedai yg ader jual Japanese products. I bought it at Sogo. Truth be told that they were not easy to shoot, at all, na'ah. Well at least for the first half hour. But once I got the hang of it, it was quite easy. Then came the editing parts which are like super hard. Adjust sikit je byk details hilang.. urrghh... .
Najib ~ Passion? Perhaps. Interest? Most definitely. I think I'd be considered passionate if I were to, like, got really into it. I mean 'reeeaaally'. There were many instances during the shoot that ideas came to mind to go just a step further, a more difficult shot, more 'convincing' shots. But I felt that'll be way too tedious and would suck the fun out of the experiments . Oh well, I guess I'm not passionate enough.. hehe.. . But hey, I understand what you mean. I was just rambling .
jidin ~ Such kind words! And very uplifting. Thks bro .
p/s - About the camera, hey don't mention it. I was glad to help in any way.
sabishii doraiba ~ Hehe... don't think I'd be giving up my day job just yet . Thanks for that vote of confidence.
p/s - I saw and commented. Am feeling a bit sad now cause of it, but sad in a good way.... thanks.
kenterong ~ Part time? Hmmm... using a studio bathroom cam morkymoqq cakap tu? Hehe... . Perhaps kot. Entah le.. Pop art? A while back someone suggested the same. I'd love to try it one of these days. But I've got to read on it a bit first cause I have no idea how to do it, at all . Reckon it'd be fun . Thks bro, as always .
WeI-JaN ~ Well, keep on trying dear. Was not easy for me at first but you'll get the hang of it once you've got the right set up and settings .
p/s - Am doing another somewhat similar shots. Stay tune, k... .
