Advertorial: Projecteo.

6 Comments »


I was more than excited to have this mini Instagram projector from Projecteo in mail last week! It is the first ever, and I thought the concept is pretty cool. What's more, it is so simple to fix and operate even for a gadget idiot like me. Isn't it lovely to be able to purchase as many wheels as you love to let all your favorite images shine? Somehow, the way it works makes me think of the classic count down in old films. 

More details [here].

My Instagram journey.

16 Comments »

I was greatly inspired by [Stephanie Lee] this morning on her photography triplets. Instantly an idea popped somewhere in my mind and there I went, grabbing and compiling some of my past Instagram pictures. I joined Instagram on June 2011 and I must say it is an absolutely incredible journey. Although my passion's gradually fading out for now, I will never forget those excitements and memories it had once brought me along the way. 


The Good Ol' Days
These are the very first pictures I posted. The middle one's my first, and it's when I set out to work on a depressing rainy day. Sadly I deleted all of these in an attempt to make the account focusing solely on photography. 


Simplicity Ruled It All
My first series on Instagram. I remember placing a white A4 beneath and excitedly captured with my iPhone 4. I really love the softness they yield.


Earlybird Love
Earlybird was my all time favorite filter. In fact, I used none other. Unfortunately, it's no longer sustainable with the introduction of many new color-rich filters. I do miss the hashtags #earlybird and #earlybirdlove very much though! 


Poco Homemade
This series of pictures got me really into the Instagram world. As [Cheyenne] featured me on her popular account (which I really really appreciated!), I found myself getting more followers and enjoying many kind words. I still love this series a lot until today! 


Screenshots
Along the way I received so many sweet and friendly words. When I said I was depressed, some could go writing a long paragraph to cheer me up, and they really warmed me to the bottom of heart. The middle one's when I just started out, and felt so happy to cross the 100 followers boundary. The third's when my favorite Instagrammer followed me and I swear I was so happy I jumped and hit the ceiling. 


Le Me
I don't really post my personal pictures on Instagram because I am very afraid of how people would judge me. I still do it occasionally though! 


Nashville
Nashville was once my favorite too! The pink tone is so lovely!


Foodology
I love pictures of food! I may do it too often, but I still enjoy it very much.


Accessories
Surprisingly, my followers love my posts on accessories. Somehow I got to collect more and more along the way and I am always happy to share. 


Toys
Some toys capture.


Oh, Camera!
I always like posting pictures of cameras, especially vintage ones. The middle's a plush my sister made. 


Scenery 
I think I posted most pictures on scenery. I like to share pictures of my travel diary and receive feedback. The left one's the first picture from me to get to the popular page! 


Flower Power
You know I love flowers. Just looking at their beauty makes me smile. 


Vintage
And I am also glad to know some think I am good at capturing vintage pictures. I love vintage very much myself, and I really hope to do more vintage shoots in the future. The right one is the most satisfying vintage photoshoot I have done :) 

If you have the free time, I tag you to do this wonderful photography triplet on whatever themes you love! 

love, M

Instagram 2 x 2.

Been long I haven't posted my Instagram collection. Kinda interesting to see everything cropped into squares, a different type of beauty I guess. Anyway, I'm hating my addiction and everyday when I see pictures uploaded by my fav. Instagrammers, I really think I do not deserve all the followers I have now. Feel so tiny (and utterly inferior) under their magical pictures... But I'm still glad they 'give me face' followed me back (hahaha). It doesn't matter at all if they unfollow in the end, because I don't have much confidence myself to hold 'em long (they'll realize one day I'm not worth it :P). 

Anyway, I'm loving the community still. There are a lot of kind people out there, round the globe! And it completely changed my photography perception. Though it's not quite the same like last time, it still continues to provide a platform for aspiring photographers to unleash their talents.
