snomed3 | footie withdrawal symptoms' photostream

snomed3 once a young lad who would fly on an airplane and told the unassuming stewardess that he was flying back home to kampung to see his grandma so he won’t feel embarrassed that he was really on that plane just to catch negri plays at kuala terengganu.

he now takes pictures for n9futbol.com and has the best seat in the stadium though he won’t be allowed to jump like a monkey if zaquan scored that wonder goal or cursed when the opposition scored against negri.

enjoy the ups and downs of negri football squad right through his lens!

launching a new footie blog

I have a little too much time in my hand so I guess I better update this little who are you thing.

Am a 29 (yes 29!!!) year old chap from a sleepy town in Malaysia called Seremban and a medical doctor by training. I once lived in Sheffield for almost 9 years and in the UK for 11 years (still struggles with Sheffield accent). Yeap, I miss being in Sheffield waking up to the calm misty Bole Hill park and I regret to have not spend more time photography wise there. Yeap Paul, I am jealous of your pics and your gears!

Gadget wise I currently own two systems. One a really basic entry level camera and another near Pro stuffs which I just bought recently. It's been long due (new camera body) and I was forced to get a new body as I got more into shooting football (that's soccer to yous Americans) in low light condition. Having said that most of my pictures that I consider nice and some made their ways into papers, blogs and paid for are from my A100. Ironic isn't it?

For those of you who still thinks Canon or Nikon are the best you really need to go out more or even stay in and spend more time in flickrs. No offence but am super sick of this 'my camera is better than yours' squabble. Ken Rockwell here couldn't put it much better! If you dont believe me just look at Edward Olives's pictures. His latest wedding photography was done with a cheapo point and shoot. Oh yeah Edward, if you're reading this am sorry if some of my BWs looks familiar or aptly the worse version of yours (You 'da' man!). Really lads, it's the 12 inches behind the cameras that matters. Unless yours is much less than 12 inches in which case please please please ring me at once so I can write you up for The New England Journal.

I don't do weddings per se but occasionally I help out my mate whom I know from school, Berx. His website is www.subhikarim.com. I highly recommend this dude as we share the same idea on how wedding photography should really be done.

If you'd like to use my images please feel free to send me a Flickrmail.

Thanks for visiting!
