Kampung Boy
I’ve nothing much to write here but just wanted to share with you a picture taken in 2008 at my Father-in-law house in Kuala Penyu Sabah, approximately two hours drive from Kota Kinabalu. My son can’t walk at the time this picture is taken, he can stand for a few minutes but will fall down once he took his first step, it was easier to take a photograph of him then than now. My Father-in-law village can be considered as backward, very few development here, most of the times we have to rely on the rain for our water supply and when it doesn’t rain, life can be tough. For…

Heavy Responsibility
As you can see my son is getting heavy.

All About Bokeh Photography
Bokeh come from Japanese word “boke”, which means “blur” or “haze” or “boke-aji”, “the blur quality”. To put it simple to understand “Bokeh” is the blur or out of focus area of an image, like the picture of my son and my wife above, the “Blurry” part or the “out of focus” area in the picture above is what people called “Bokeh”. I don’t want to talk about good Bokeh or bad Bokeh here, I just want to talk about how to get a Bokeh, different lenses with difference focal length and different aperture will render Bokeh differently, for the picture above I use 50mm lens shooting at f1.8.

A Printed Memory
© 2010 Wazari Wazir | A Printed Memory “A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years, but a photograph always remains the same. How nice to look at a photograph of mother or father taken many years ago. You see them as you remember them. But as people live on, they change completely. That is why I think a photograph can be kind.” ( Albert Einstein ) Tweet news and informationbusiness,health,entertainment,technology automotive,business,crime,health,life,politics,science,technology,travel
