Raya Open House @ Ezwan’s

Just got back from a Hari Raya open house by Ezwan. It’s in Bukit Putera Mahkota… It’s so near to Nilai 3 that the whole journey there reminded me of my first working experience in Nilai 3 four years ago… Anyway, I would like to extend my gratitude to Ezwan and his family for welcoming us to their open house and giving us such hospitality while we were there.
 
What I like the most about open house is the traditional Malay food. This is even better that Ezwan’s mother cooked herself to cater every guests in the house. Lemang, ketupat, kuah kacang (my personal fav), sambal sotong, kari ayam, serunding (another of my personal fav), nasi jagung, karipap and kuih-muih… Gosh, it’s such a gastronomical experience!
 
Ezwan, the host hanging around with us…
 
Ezwan’s father did a great job to their house in giving a magical touch to its landscape and interior design… Job well done! I love this carp fish pond… There a see-through glass on the floor in the room itself!
 
Water fountain…
 
Us in the greens…
 
Look! There are grapes hanging in the vine!
 
Thanks Ezwan for the treat! I won’t forget you during my house-warming party… Datang tau?! 🙂
 
Selamat Hari Raya…
Kepada saudara serta saudari…
Setahun hanya sekali…
Merayakan hari yang mulia ini…
 
Wishing all my Muslim friends Selamat Hari Raya
& Maaf Zahir Batin…

KLPF 2009 @ Mid Valley

Another first time with my EOS… hehehe… It’s my first time using my EOS to take model on stage live. It’s the Kuala Lumpur Photography Festival in Mid Valley. First, it was the Miss Chinese Cosmos 2009 parading on stage in the morning session. In the afternoon, another batch of beautiful ladies walked the catwalk on stage. It was the Model Shootout Contest. Took the opportunity to learn to shoot photos live and moving objects in the very short period of time. It’s a bit tiring but fun! I even submitted 7 photos for the Model Shootout Contest. But, no win… 😦 Anyway, it’s a good experience…!
  
  
Sweet-looking lady…
  
 
I predict this should be the winner of Miss Chinese Cosmos Pageant 2009…
  
 
I predict this should be Ms K-LINK… muahahaha!
 
 
Urrghhh… but good pose…
 
My predicted top two…
 
 
Ryan from Astro Talent Quest 09… also the MC for the morning show…
 
Look! Models are make-up…
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I like this the most…
 

 In the hall across, there was a Thai fair… Another valuable chance to practise my skills… Hehehe….
 
 
Painting umbrellas attentively…
 
Mein and one of the dancers…
 
 
 
 
 
Performances on stage…
 
 
 
 
 
It’s then the photo contest judging time…
 
I can see my photos in the whole lot…
 
The judge looking seriously for the best pictures…
 

And here are the winners…
 
Later I found out that it was the first time the winner (Andy) took part in such contest… but he’s been taking photos in events and functions all this while… And the 2nd place winner (Khoo) just started photography 5 months ago!!! Coincidentally, he works out in my gym also… I met him this morning and chatted for awhile…
 
Photography, such a wonderful thing to do…!!! Looking forward for the next photo session!!!…

EOS Course for Beginners

Attended the EOS Course for Beginners in KLCC Training Room last Saturday. It’s really good that Canon provide such after-sales service for their customers. It’s just RM50 for this course. Learnt about the basic skills to handle the camera and also some photography technics. Very informative. Frankly speaking, I think all new Canon users should attend this course to start of their long long journey of photography…
