Gabriel Lai Photography & Cinematography

I went to my grandma’s house, which is my mom’s hometown last weekend. I drove there with my mom & my bro ahmike. It has been sometime since I last went back there. The journey takes about 45min from my house, Taman Melaka Baru to Machap Baru.

If you remember, I did share one picture with you guys under “The Old Old Shoe” posting

 

Beside taking the picture of the shoe I also did some candid and portrait shots with the cousins in Machap Baru and for Joshua Low. Oh ya, I also shot a pic of my grandma holding a cigarette..

Saw that? She’s enjoying the moment of me snapping her with the cigarette. Yup, I asked her to position like this, while myself & my brother ahmike tries to snap her with the cigarette. Then, I showed her the photo, she was laughing all the way

One of the cousin that stay there, he enjoyed being photographed by me even though he’s quite shy with me. However, my camera kept following him, and he just have to follow what I say.

I love Black & White photography. It shows the oldies feeling and yes, some of the details shown up too. The posture with the natural environment. Oh ya, those background are all around my grandma’s house, and now you can imagine how big is the compound… It’s huge!!

Then, I also asked him to lean on the old old door that my grandma had thrown into the store room.

I like the feel of B&W, just love it so much… donno why… You tell me… please….

And yea, Joshua, my cousin posting with my brother’s Sony A200 + Sigma 28-200mm zoom lens. He loves to carry the camera… I think now is the trend of Digital SLR, don’t you think so? Kids loves big big camera now!

I also asked him to position with the old chair, and looking at the sky..just like day dreaming. Yea, Post Processing with 5 layers… I love the colors… do you love it?

Oh ya, I leave the pimpers there so that it will be more natural right? hehe..
