HOW TO BE A COOL PHOTOGRAPHER
1. The first rule of a cool photographer: Do NOT show your photographs.
2. The second rule of a cool photographer: Do not show your photographs! If somebody asks you to show them - make an excuse. Tell about terabytes of raw images on your computer, being busy, copy and other rights, agreements with "Harper's Bazaar", "Esquire", and other fancy magazines and advertisement agencies.
3. If you have a blog, post there a few photos of renown photographers with moderately positive comments such as "That's how one should do it!". Theorise a lot!
4. As an exception, you can post 2-3 abstract-looking photos with a note "I am just fooling around" or "these are my juvenile experiments". No more than that!
5. Register on all possible forums, mailing lists, websites devoted to photography. Post often, criticise moderately, without fanaticism. Use expressions like "so-so", "boring shit", "the horizon level is off", "faded colours", "is there an idea?" "is there a concept?", etc. Really cool photographer can always find something to criticize. Never praise. Mock newbies until their full destruction.
6. Learn the terminology. The words "expocorrection", "bracketing", "crop", "polarisation" should always be in your arsenal. Use them!
7. Learn the jargon and use it fearlessly.
8. Disdain the rules, but ridicule those who disregard them.
9. Learn names of 2-3 famous photographers, and know the Cliff's notes description of their work. Use this when theorising and criticising.
10. Install the latest version of Photoshop. Master the "stamp" tool. Tell everybody that you don't use Photoshop on principle. Ridicule all who uses it.
11. Photo filters are crouches for disabled. Universal lenses are suitable for handless and footless. A really cool photographer uses different lenses for each situation, and uses his feet and head for moving objects closer and farther away.
12. Buy a camera. Remember, Canon belongs to cheap pop-culture; Panasonic, Sony, Olympus and Konica are all garbage. In the worst case, buy Nikon or Pentax, but you'd be better off with Leica or Hasselblad. If you don't have enough money, buy a wide-angle "Kiev". You don't need to put any expensive film in it - just carry the camera with you.
13. The more lenses, flashes, filters, exponometers are in your photobag, the cooler you are!
14. Cool pros use film or the most expensive digital SLR's. If you don't have enough money for 1D Mark, carry an old film camera, motivating it by the fact that digital is inferior to the film. Argue about wrong colour reproduction, low resolution, and the young age of the technology.
15. If you are using a DSLR, claim that you ignore the screen and even the built-in exponometer, setting everything based on your vision and expertise.
16. Get a friend with a photo-studio and drink with him regularly.
17. Every so often, disappear for a couple of days. Claim that you had a large-volume contract and you were stuck in the studio, or that you flew in the "National Geographic" helicopter to shoot geysers in Kam***a.
18. Display on your desk a certificate of some photo-school, but don't forget to mention that you have outgrown your teachers.
19. Memorise Ken Rockwell's article. Disprove it or substantiate it depending on the situation.
20. Learn all the camera models back to the 40s. Read the new releases, and know all modern cameras, lenses, flashes.
21. Be aware of photo exhibitions. You don't need to attend them, familiarising yourself with the reviews would suffice.

Once upon a time in Medan City
Hi People!
Some of u guys knew that i went to medan, north sumatra few days ago, all happens by sudden.
I visited my friend, Rendy, who is a big boss of a customization workshop named SOLID, they do modification, paint, and all things around your car body, feeling creative?
Time was spend quickly, while we went around medan city to search for a great location, i snap his car.
a 2009 CRV with gunmetal color, modification with full Mugen kit and 22" EXE Pegasus Wasabi in black color mated with Toyo Rubber.
Then we found some space, had a quick snap
It also got HID 6000k for headlight and foglight
His Gigantic rims details
At the end of journey, we found this abandoned area on Cemara, well, i think only SUV can come to this far because they got big hole along the way.
after that, we arranged a photo shot session for his friends car. thanks for watch this space and stay tuned :)
