In Japan, you still can get all the old asahi camera, nippon camera magazine back in 20-30years ago in a used bookstore. Tokyo Style Camera’s John Sypal found this book 1974 April Issue of Asahi Camera. I always wonder how Daido Moriyama dress back those days, cos now I kept on see his portrait of wearing everything in Black.

Even the photo + filmstrip border itself of the photo look so cool! The saturation makes it look so funky… The shirt so contrast!! haha

Damn!!!!

First Day of Ramadan is on Wednesday.
Me and my friend will gather and ‘buka puasa’ together althou only 4 out of how many of em are Muslim. Macam biasa in a movie scene, not all waiting for the open time to eat. Once they started to sit terus 2-3 of em suda buka and makan. *facepalm*

Sabah kan purely 1Malaysia.

Yo… Love to update my blog but work as photojournalist really avoid me to online for personally less than 2 hours.
So here are the update about my First Photozine called My Journey or 僕の旅 (boku no tabi) #1.

The quality is not as good like those typical Photobook you see but I’m willing to share in-terms of book format because I always believe looking photos in this kind of format always give different kind of feeling.
“Glare a Photo in a piece of Photograph through your palm gives you the instinct of everlasting connection thru your vain to heart and mind. That’s what makes special about Photographs. Not Pixelate Picture in Monitor.”

Edition of 12
(it means only have 12 printed books, unless someone willing to sponsor to print another extra books )

Book Cover of My Journey

40 Pagesof  12 Edition

Price :
Malaysia RM30 / Japan 1500円 / America USD15 / Oceania AUD12 / Europe EUR8.50

Postage :
Within KK free pick-up / Outside KK f.o.c / Peninsular and Sarawak RM5 / Outside Malaysia including with the price list above.

First Page

Main purpose to print this kind of book format is to send to an Art Gallery and also Photo Agency. I purposely print extra and sell it with a reasonable price for those who are interested in keeping Photobook Collection and also Photograph Lovers.
If you have any question please do not hesitate to ask me via comment below or email me for private question at flaneganb[at]gmail.com .
I will email you my bank account number if some of y’all interested. I don’t mind exchange with photobook or other photography collection as long it’s the same value as the price I mention above. I love collecting photography stuff!

Since I got my first payroll last month. Well, I only received half of it actually & still waiting for another half-payment until now since last month. I hate working with people who pays half only and then no update or news from them. This is not my first time, 3rd time I think. I still remember my first pay assignment job, I only receive quarter of the payment amount until now.

Money is Evil Indeed… Why can’t we live freely like how our ancestor used to be? Just laid back and tanam sawah padi? damn~~

Anyway, this Blog post is about my first Independent Photozine or Photography Book that I used my own earn hardcash money to print it.
Basically, the amount of this book cost 60% of my half paid roll. Which means, I’m broke already now. HAHA
But hey, I’m happy with it. I decide to send this book to some of the Art Gallery I’m eyeing with my cover letter and resume. I know I already got a job, I’m gonna talk about it soon here for you guys to imagine in a few days.

Okay, Let’s talk about my Photozine. It’s my first collection of Photozine. Independent Photography book printed in Sabah.
Not in a proper ‘photo’ printing way but it’s enough to show my photo in a traditional way instead of looking your image in a pixelated LCD Monitor screen. =_=”

Lemme Present you :

My Journey / 僕の旅

I decide to call it My Journey or 僕の旅 in Japanese (boku no tabi) because It’s not a conceptual or series of image.
Most of the photo in this book is part of My Journey where I started to further my study Photography in Australia in 2007 until now 2010 where I manage to find a full-time Job as a Photojournalist.
It’s just a first episode of my photozine, and in the future I’m gonna compile and check my archive again to do 2nd episode, maybe I’ll use the title back to My Journey or maybe not. will see~~

15 copies only. Limited bebeh!

Total is 40 pages on Art Paper with Laser Jet Printer.

I’m gonna send it to some of Art Gallery first, If I do have another extra book.
If for those who are interested to purchase it please do not hesitate to leave a comment or can email me via sendto[at]flaneganb.net . If you do have my mobile phone no, just leave me a txt message lar.

I guess that’s all and oh ya. I got freebies from Kazakhstan girls during Folklore Festival Farewell party at Zoo Lokkawi yesterday for an assignment.

Kazakhstan Flag.

I’ve been searching for their flag for quite sometimes and finally I got myself 1 by them! Blue color I like~~
And Kazakh Girls are very cute and pretty too. I can fall for them anytime. Suka brabis their features, really represent 1 world. HAHA

Group Photos of the Kazakh Girls.

Haiya, too bad the Super Cute Girl is not in there. I do hope they come again next year.
Macam mau lose weight and learn a few Kazakh Language Phrases Pula so that Next Time I can communicate with them more easily.
Most of them can’t speak English, Even they do have a translator… Seems like the Translator herself also Lost in Translation.
I still remember I ask one of them “How long will you be here after the competition?”, The girl reply “I love Malaysian Food!”

ermmmm….. I don’t know how to reply after that. The atmosphere do change a lil bit if u know what I mean.
Even myself kena Lost in Translation. Rakhmet for the Kazakhstan Flag.

Bah.. So if anyone who are interested with my Photozine. Lemme know lar
That’s all from me.
