2008 Day 26: Alleycat
This is Alleycat, she’s my boss’ baby, a fine old dame who has gone through much pain in life.
Tip: You need to be patient and alert when taking pet pics so as to not miss out those candid moments.
2008 Day 25: Eye on you
The Eye on Malaysia at Lake Titiwangsa has become an attraction to locals and tourists alike. A slow shutter speed was used to capture the busy crowd’s movement, resulting in a feel of movement in the photo.
Tip: Steady hands (a tripod would be better recommended), and a slow shutter speed and a small aperture are key to capturing this scene.
2008 Day 24: Christy of the drums
This is Christy from Diplomats of Drum, a local drum band consisting of 12 guys and 1 girl! A rather challenging shot with all the smoke on the stage. I waited for Christy to hit the drum and grabbed the shot, freezing Christy and her beautiful smile in sweet memory.
Tip: Patience and steady hands, a lens with image stabilization would be a great bonus!
2008 Day 23: What’ca looking at
One of the performers from Kenge Kenge, noticing his photo was being shot, turned to look at the camera with some unique antics.
Tip: Take advantage of the situation should a performer notice your presence and looks straight at the camera, it gives your photo eye contact.

Balfa Toujours, a family-based group from the USA out to increase the popularity of Cajun music around the world.
Tip: Try changing your photos to monochrome or black and white, it could possibly bring out a different feel altogether.

This sound engineer is hard at work preparing the the acoustics for the night long performance.
Tip: Look out everywhere for possible shots, sometimes the least interesting places can have interesting photo opportunities.
Tags: photos2008 Day 20: Ecstatic crowd
The crowd, excited and ecstatic by the wonderful music and colorful lights on the stage dances to the beat.
Tip: Focusing on the crowd can bring a change of beat to your photos, it also shows the atmosphere at that time.

This dancer from the group Badila is just amazing, twirling and turning her head, body and still able to maintain balance, very impressive indeed.
Tip: Dancers are hard to capture due to the fast movement and low light, be alert, be ready and be steady!

Salem Tradition (reunion Islands), well-renowned in the region for enchanting and bewitching live performances. I like the light coming from above the stage in this shot.
Tip: Lights can make all the difference in a performance shot, look out for unique shaped lights and colors for your shots!
Tags: photos2008 Day 17: Shout my lungs out
Afenginn from Denmark, one of my favorite performers at the World Music Festival, Kim Nyberg is a very expressive and entertaining performer full of character.
Tip: Stay alert and be ready for moments like this that will never be repeated.
