I haven’t blogged in almost three months. You probably didn’t even care anyway. So what’s new? Well I start my second year of med school in about a month, lost around 12 kilos, and I’ve taken an interest in photography. Hmm yeah, I feel like I’ve lost my blogging mojo, and although I’ve written only 3 sentences, it feels like the writing ‘flare’ is gone. Oh well.

Anyway, I digress from the main topic, and as the title suggests, this is something I tried out about an hour ago. I’m still considered an amatuer photographer and I have loads to learn but I’m quite contented with the outcome of the shoot. (The only problem was that I was the ‘model’)

I decided to only post one of the few shots on my blog. The rest, although had interesting outcomes, aren’t pictures I would remember, nor would they give lasting impressions. The pictures I took were not photoshopped, I only used the monochrome filter on my dslr while using a Sigma 50mm f/1.4 lens on my Canon 600D.

So this is the shot. I like how my hair blends together with the out-of-focus elements. Another thing  worth mentioning is how I have a subtle look in my eyes showing boredom and dissatisfaction as my face is pressed against the carpet floor. The background is sometimes just as important as the the subject, so I decided to lie to down on a carpet, to give it a nice errrr ‘texture’ (if you would excuse the pun). If you don’t like it, I would really appreciate constructive criticism, and in my opinion I think the shot would have turned out a little better if my eye was a little more prominent.

It would have been awesome if I had hot babes like Olivia Wilde or Freida Pinto to model for me (Megan Fox is hot but I think she’s overrated). But for now, I’m just stuck with myself :(
