Play a game

No, this is not a photoshop picture.

THIS IS LIGHT PAINTING.

Light painting is a concept that you "drawing" with light while taking shoot. Basically, the photographer is playing with the shutter speed and adjust long exposure. The first time I tried light painting with my Lumix GF-2. It's feel like I'm doing my own photography experiment.

  That was my first light painting, it's terrible that I have no idea what I just did. Thing don't always goes right at the first time. Looking at the picture, it's like telling me that I have to think of the other way round. I have to "fit in the shoes" so I started to draw reflection images with light in front of my camera. Always take a first step. Successful people don't just make great decision but also they have their courage to take every first step.

Tic Tok Tic Tok. every image took me at least 20 second, because I adjusted to longer shutter speed so that I have enough time to draw. Second try was better. Think about it, life is just like this. You fit in his/her shoes, trying to be understanding, imagine what would happen if we were in his/her situation? We could have done better than them? maybe. But we could make thing worst too. Understanding is like a master key to every relationships. With understanding, we compromise and tolerate, everyone spreading the love and care unconsciously. Just a little thought, it could change the whole world.

Slow progress but it's still a  progress. I able to draw "Jun" at the end. It was so fun, so surprising! Nevertheless, it was so confusing. However, it is a lesson. One thing I have learn from light painting is to be understanding. There's a lot we have to learn in life, beauty is everywhere, we just lack of observation. Make a change, be understanding and notice the beauty part of life from a game to do with lights.

Comic

No doubt that everyone know what is comics, it is a medium used to express idea or tell story via images, sometimes it combine with text or other visual information. To be honest, I don’t really read comics. So what’s the first thing that come to my mind when we talk about comics? MARVEL.

It’s always remind me of the Avengers when I think of Marvel comics. To me it is the greatest picture from Marvel. I adore the creative and brilliant idea from the writer, as I always wonder how they get all these idea, they hit the box offices critical successfully! A man suffers a severe chest injury during kidnapping then his captors attempt to build a weapon of mass destruction on his body, there comes the Iron Man. Next, Thor the crown prince of Asgard who exiled from his homeland to Earth and met Jane Foster the scientist. While there, Thor fight against Loki for his people and also human. In addition, Captain America, the Hulk even the peacekeeping organization S.H.I.E.L.D. Marvel put all unrelated characters into one story, all these superhero have form a team to against Loki from subjugating Earth, and it is called the Avengers.

The movie has inspired me that nothing is impossible, creativity create new thing and make new changes. Although all the superhero have different characteristics, but with one goal, they able to made it. Life have many obstacles, we deal with each of it. Success or fail, it doesn't really matter, we learn form the progress though. Keep trying, because you never know how great you can be. We face a lot of struggle as we grow up, we met a lot of temporary people, but we also met our true friends from lessons and experiences. Life is a learning process. We often feel lost between different paths, you may not have idea of your future yet, no one can forecast the future picture anyway, but all you have to do is just follow your heart and take the first step. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.

Comic writer never stop trying to make interesting story in comic, so why don't we make our life interesting in reality! Life is adventure, have some fun! ;)

Cartoon

When I was young, I used to watch Digimon with my cousins. Watching cartoon was one of my best childhood entertainment at home.

As I grow up, I don't really watch cartoon anymore, except it's for my brother. Last time, my cousin watch cartoon for me, now I watch cartoon for my brother. My brother is at age 8, we are 12 years differences but we are really close in real life. You know, it's cliché to say but still, age is just a number. For me, family is always the priority.

Remember the last cartoon I watched with my brother was Doraemon. My brother like the story so much, because it's so hilarious and it is very touching. But for me, it's getting bored because I have watched that series too many times! Somehow I think it's a blessing that I can share joy moment with my loves one. It's so heartwarming when my brother look at me and he literally said that he loves me. Children from traditional culture don't express their love and caring in such way, my parents used to express love to us by "scolding us to sleep early", I feel so surprise and grateful at the same time, this make me feel like I wouldn't trade anything from this world for my family love.

Sometimes when my brother and I walking in the mall, people will look at us with that suspicious look. I bet that they have assume I'm his mother. But no one is going to care about this anyway, we live our own best life. He once said, I'm not afraid to do all the difficult thing anymore because I have learnt courage. I was totally inspired from him. No doubt that my brother is my daily doze of happiness.

Although I don't like to watch cartoon but it actually make me spent more time with my brother, we are getting close each of the day, I want to watch him grow, I want to make him happy, my family smile is my precious gift ever. Appreciate your family, the time is now, family love is irreplaceable =)
