Shine in The Night

Last week, I joined the two of my friends, Monte and Mia accompanied our friends from Singapore, Charllote and also Nicholas from US walking around Monas, Central Jakarta. That was Charllote's last day to spent in Jakarta, after sightseeing around Monas, we sent her to Gambir Station to get bus to the airport.

Then, we separated our selves with Nicholas who going back to his 'kos' near to Semanggi area. By the way, Nicholas is a scholarship student of Bahasa Indonesia in Atmajaya University, Jakarta. So, Nicholas back to his kos, me, Monte, and Mia continued our day to Istiqlal Mosque, which located right in front of Cathedral Catholic Church. Istiqlal known as the biggest Mosque in South East Asia.

Finally for over 15 years lives in Jakarta, I made it, I finally entered Istiqlal Mosque, and I feel so happy for that. The most famous mosque in Indonesia, probably in South East Asia, why wouldn't I be happy ? The mosque is really, really beautiful. I take some pictures there, will definitely post onto this blog, but not now. Today, am gonna post Cathedral Catholic Church, which I took it from Istiqlal Mosque, second floor.

How do you think ? There is still shine in the night, right ? I took it with my Canon Power Shot A3000 IS.

Happy fuckin' birthday to me !!!

Dear my self,

I'd like to say happy fuckin' birthday for you. Wishing you not only the best things for the future but also the worst things. Why should I wishing you for the worst thing ? I think, worst things will help you to be more mature and appreciate your own life.

Cheers,

Me

I made it

Things in my room, suppose to be my annual post every month, but then again, I lost my mood and it's been eight months since my last post about this project, things in my room. Now, I doing this post again, but I don't even dare to promise this post gonna be obligatory posting every month. I just tryin to continue them which I've started last year. 

For this posting now, I took a picture of my-handmade statue or doll or whatever you want to call it. I made this blue thing about couple weeks ago, made from paper + water + glue, emm..what do we call this ingredient in English ? is it pulp ? or paper porridge ? Well, you tell me. The things is, when I made this blue was the time when I have nothing to do. My school still off, I just came back from my holiday trip so there were no part-time job for me yet, and I think like why don't I make something stupid thing to spend those boring time I had. Here we go, the blue thing I made. Frickin ugly? yes it is.

On STAGE JavaRockin'Land 2011

I never been to JavaRockinLand Concert before, but, lucky angels seems stood still their feet on my head. This year I got a chance to go see this annual biggest rock music festival in Indonesia. The event itself has been going on since three years ago, 2009, so this year was it's third time festival. You know what ? I get the ticket for FREE.

Now, let me tell you guys how can I got the tickets for free. Couple days before the day, one of the promoter's account twitter tweet about to give free tickets to his followers. Thank God, he tweeted the quiz about one o'clock in the morning, it means less followers still awake that time, means my chance to get the tickets getting bigger, rite ? I got two tickets from the quiz. It was really-really unbelievable. I got tickets are worth about 2,5 million idr. It was a BIG SHOT for me, self-proclaimed as one of those kuishunter (quizhunter) on twitterland.

Well, enough about the story and these are photos I got for you all.

ROOFs

Back again to this blog. Almost two months with out any single post here, now me, the one and only owner of this blog (so what ?) back again with new posting. Are you happy right now ? I know that you guys have been waiting for my comeback (what a super self-confidence there).

This time, am giving you all picture of roofs, giving you four pictures at a time. Here they are :

STYLE FOR HIM

After such a long time since my last posted. Here I am, back again with the very newest photo of ME. LOL (to much of me, don't you think ?). The photo is taken as my campus assignment and also join quiz from GAP Indonesia. Taken, still, by my brother Elyas Tampubolon.

my editorial-wannabe photoshots

LOL, but hey, don't even dare to laughing and mocking on me. Well, okay, I ain't a proffesional model, so what ? I don't think my photos are that bad at all, I quite confidence to compare my photos to those editorial on famous magazines (yea, I'm that overconfidence).

I'll show you these three photos (actually, I had much more than these three, but think am gonna give you the rest next) which are taken by my brother, Elyas Tampubolon. Digital imaged by Me. Model ? who else ? it's me *saying proudly*.

Love to Kill

What a good mood I have lately to posting something to this blog. It less than a week, but now I back here again with new photo and new story of course.

So, the story of this pic is about a young man who either desperate and psycho, who loves to kill so badly. After kills a lot, he goes even more desperate and in the end, he wanting to kill himself. So tragic, isn't it ? (p.s: the knife is real).

The model was me, art director was me, photographed by my brother, digital imaged by me and my brother.

Miserable Face

Before March turn into April, could you please let me at least post something on this lovely blog ? (talking to myself). More than thirty days haven't blogged anything yet. Now, I have something to show you guys.

Just this morning, me and my brother taking pictures of each other (me taking his pictures and him taking mine). There is one great photo of myself that I like the most from the photosession. I named it 'Miserable Face' (Taken by Elyas. Digital Imaging by Me). What do you think ?

KORUP + PSSI = KORUPSSI

The line on t-shirt 'KORUPSSI' is about creative mad expression to Indonesia's Football Federation, which called PSSI. There were rumours (that most of Indonesian folks believe as a fact) about this football federation are conquered by a corrupt leader. So, my friends (Eaz and Dheny) giving their creative expression making this such a beautiful t-shirt.

The concept of this photo is about a person who known for corruption, but still got big confidence to stand still because he had 'bigger' people who will stand behind him and got his back.

Feel like need to take one or two photos of the t-shirt, Eaz asked me to snap it for promotional need, so I did it. Due it was with no preparation, no time to find a person with model look or something, so, instead find a model, I ask Eaz become the model, and also a lot thank to Resty and Puspita who are so happily approved my request asking them to let their hands participated as part-models, lol.
----------------------
p.s : I used Resty's DSLR camera, Nikon.

Jeans Advertisement (wannabe)

So, last friday. Me, and 4 of my friends are havin photosession. Such a great time, and also greats results (i think). Plenty of photos are taken by me, but these one are the best for me. It consists of three photos basically. The foot part, the head part and full body. Once seeing the pictures, I got an idea to make a wannabe jeans adv.

So, what do you think guys ? Critics are welcome.

Love in Lost

Last week, January 17, 2011 for sure. I had a photosession with my friends, Eaz, Dheny and Rezty. It took a former hotel building in Cileungsi, named 'Komplek Graha Garuda Tiara' as our location. It used 'Garuda'-word because the building it self look like Garuda bird from the top. You can click this link for the picture and this if you want to know details story behind Garuda mithology.

Okay, enough about the location. The point is I do really had a great time with my bestfriends, more good news was that I got few great photos of Dheny and Rezty. I didn't took much pictures of Eaz, due to he was also acted as a photographer that day, using Resty's camera. He has not upload yet his shots, well, you all can keep your eyes to his blog for update.

Now, let me show you what did I got from that photosession. Here they are 'Love in Lost' :

Fyi, I used Canon Eos Kiss X4 for this photosession. All the photos are taken by me and also fully edited by me. Credits to the model, give big applauses to Dheny and Resty, who are so nice and kind willing to be my free model.

WHEE-styLe-CHAIR

Last week, my brother James bought grandma a wheelchair. Don't ask me what's that wheelchair use for!!. The day when me, my brother Juara and James taking the wheelchair to our mom's house (my mom and grandma are live together since last year), I asked Juara to  took a picture of me while posing on my grandma's wheelchair.

So, this is it. Picture of my self, taken by my brother Juara Elyas and full edited by me.
