Interesting news articles that I’ve found on wednesday.
Yay, my photo is used for other report of ABC online new again. (:
:same photo but different report
I just want to say I like social networking service such as cyworld or flickr. I am a big fan of flickr since 2005 I remember. I love taking photos and actually I had no space to put my photos rather than putting them into my external hard disk or i-photo on my computer.
one of my images from my flickr (click the image then it goes to my flickr account directly)
After I use flickr I can store my photos in it and also I can share my photos with others who love photography. Also I can see others’ works and even I can join some groups that I am interested in such as I Shoot Film. I love new technologies and I use internet everyday but I don’t like digital camera. Well, I’ve got my DSLR and I know it is easy to import photos to computer and it is easy to shoot. I don’t have to worry about developing, film cost and etc. But I love film camera and I am using from 35mm to 120mm film cameras. Even though I am not a professional photographer and also I am not a photography student, I love photography as my hobby.
Anyway, so I shoot film all the time and I put them into my flickr account. I can see others photos and we can communicate with each other through making comments about ourselves’ photos.
Sometimes I get good comments and sometimes not. But I can say that I can improve my photography skill and even creativity for photography through flickr. THIS IS SO TRUE!
I can learn from some professional’s photography and I can even ask them some questions about the photography. Yes, they are not my lecturer or friends but we are ‘CONTACT’ in flickr world.
Also I’ve got very good opportunities from some websites and even ABC online news. My photo is used on ABC online news! and one of my photo was used for children’s book in UK as well. Some of my photos about Melbourne were also used for one of the travel websites in US. This is amazing and very interesting.
I didn’t approach to them but they sent email to ask me whether they can use my photos or not. Then I could get the amazing outcome such as ABC online news. Even though my photo is just small part of the report but where can I get the opportunity like this?
I love flickr and other social networking services because I can actually communicate with people from all different spaces and time. When I think about only good things of social networking service, I can totally say that I am a social networking service lover but I can see some bad points of social networking services.
I will talk about this later.
yes i keep thinking….*sigh*
well, I feel better and now I will start from the EMPTY again. YAY!!
I am so exciting about this new start!
sometimes, I do like analog.
Yay, I’ve got an email from one of ABC online news reporter about 2 or 3 weeks ago and he would like to use one of my photos from flickr. And today I got an email from him again and he said they used a photo of mine for their report. YES!
I am so happy about this. Few times my photos were used for some websites from US, UK and Australia. I think online is the best place to connect to the world. Well, I haven’t uploaded my photos to my flickr account for ages, it is time to go back to become being mad about flickr again. (:
To visit to read the news report, www.abc.net.au
it sounds stupid maybe, but I sill can’t find the way and I am still thinking what I have to do for my research project. I feel anxious a lot and I get stress, heavy and BIG stress.
I can’t sleep at night and I can’t do anything without thinking about the proejct.
Am I stupid? Yeah maybe?
Please let me find the WAY soon! I don’t want to be there too late…
Very hard time for me, now. Very hard.
*BIG sigh*
My close friend, yeah i can say best friend, she is studying colours and psychology in Germany. Yeah it sounds really complicated for me ‘colours and psychology’ and she is studying in German. We talk almost everyday on MSN and I talked her about my problem of the research project. She just told me that
“you should enjoy the problems that you’ve found and you can’t run away from them.”
I answered,
“I am now quite scary whether I can do or not. you know what? I kind of lost my confidence about this research project. I found so many problems so far and I don’t know where I can go”
She said,
“I also got problems every day and I totally understand what you feel. but Jung, we have to overcome, and if it is necessary to do it again from the beginning, we need to empty our HEAD then start it again”
I said,
“Yeah I know and I understand in physically but mentally, it is hard to do it”
It is happy that I have a friend who can share the ‘feeling’ even though we are FAR FROM each other now.
And both of us know that we have to enjoy the problems. (:
