    Life Is A Journey | A Walk to Remember | Father and Son

    © 2010 Wazari Wazir | Father and Son | A Walk To Remember | Kuala Penyu | Sabah What Is A Dad? A dad is someone who wants to catch you before you fall but instead picks you up, brushes you off, and lets you try again.  A dad is someone who wants to keep you from making mistakes but instead lets you find your own way, even though his heart breaks in silence when you get hurt.  A dad is someone who holds you when you cry, scolds you when you break the rules, shines with pride when you succeed, and has faith in you even when you fail……

    Kampung Boy

    Photoshop Texture Editing

    Just wanted to share a quick post here. During Super Friends Penang Outing, I’ve shared few of my editing technique to those who are interested there, among other thing is how to blend texture when the background is BLACK. Just like the picture of  A. Samad Said our National Laureate above. Let’s get straight to the point here, I use Screen blending mode here, simply because if I use Soft Light blending mode like I always do, the texture will not “Touch” the black area, meaning the black will remain black. If you don’t believe me, try it, use Screen blending option if you want to blend a texture into…

    Heavy Responsibility

    As you can see my son is getting heavy.  It’s an anaerobic exercise to carry him around, well, maybe it’s good for my thigh and overall body but one thing for sure I will get very tired after a day carrying him around. Even though my son can walk but if we take him in the city, in the crowded area, in the shopping mall for an example, I will not let my son to walk, he like to run and if you are parent yourself, you will know that a child like my son age like to run a lot, like to play hide and seek and shopping mall…
