My life as a photographer.

During my work in Advertising I never hold a camera (I have two film camera) although I involved in a lot of shoot for tv commercial and for print advertising. I do a lot of Creating Concept, Art Direction and Directing. I only pickup camera 8 years ago when my doctor advice me to do exercise (walking) due to my High Blood Pressure.

From that day everywhere I go I will bring my camera. My favourites subject is always culture (music based), concert photography and street photography.

I try my best to attend any culture shows/performance in my area where I stay or in the city. I try to capture the dying art.

Here, is my first posting at Steemit and at Steemit not only I can share my pic but also my short write-up or caption for each picture I post.

Wayang Kulit (Shadowplay photo collection)
Wayang Kulit or Shadowplay is popular in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia in the state of Kelantan. The Wayang Kulit here in Kelantan have a very strong influence from the Siamese, whereas the Wayang Kulit in Southern part of peninsular Malaysia in Johor is strongly influence by Indonesian.

Wayang Kulit is popular with the Malay community in both states which I mentioned, and the performance is always in Malay with Kelantanese dialect or in Johor with Indonesian Javanese dialect.

During this performance of Wayang Kulit , in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, I was surprised to see Chinese families bring their kids to the show. I managed to capture a few shot but this is the best to show them stunned by the performance. I always love to see kid or young generation attending such shows or performance.
