Abstract Photography
For me, photography is more than just
a passion; it is my livelihood and it is
something that I have experienced and
participated in on many different levels.
It started as a hobby and has turned into
an artistic pursuit.
My inspiration begins with lines of prose and poetry.
From there I go wild into another dimension.

Bagi saya, fotografi bukan sekedar hobi dan
kesenangan, tetapi juga hidup saya dan sesuatu
yang saya rasakan dalam berbagai hal. Bermula
dari hobi, kini fotografi yang saya jalani telah
menjadi sebuah aktivitas seni.
Inspirasi saya dimulai dengan menuliaskan bait-bait
prosa dan puisi. Dari situ saya meluncur menuju ke
dimensi lain.

Sunset
An old yellow container is a fairly rare spot. The
pattern was a bit high on this container. Fortunately,
my tripod was tall enough to shoot it. Using the
Wi-Fi function on my NX 300 camera, I can control the
desired composition through my smartphone. When I
pushed the shutter via the smartphone, the camera
automatically sent the photo through the Autoshare
function, making it easier to edit the composition.

Regarding Pollock
As a fan of Jackson Pollock, discovering patterns
similar to his works etched in rusty metal is a true
pleasure. The scratches in this frame are only as
big as a pack of playing cards. The fading background
colour from sun exposure and the splotches
of asphalt make this story one of my favourites.
It was truly a good day for the story seeker.
The technical photography approach for big prints
is the minimisation of cropping done in post
production. All composition cropping was done on
the spot. Samsung
