Peek-a-Boo!
Written on Oct 22, 2006 // Musing.Whaddup Peeps?
You’ve got to agree with me, that some people are camwhore potential while the remainder are purely camera-shy. Regardless the latter, we are mostly “bloggers” and because we are mostly “bloggers”, mostly of the “bloggers” are also “photographers”. We carry either our compact dummy cam or our monstrous SLR junkie whenever, wherever we go … triggering that quick snaps on people, events and foods for idle moments that we consider worth pondering on.
We blog about those moments … We are the “BLOGOGRAPHER”
Rewinding back to the concern of those who are camera-shy, you’ve probably encounter the situation where some of your friends would become a potent stimulus, they would duck, turn, conceal, hush up, trying any possible attempt to hide their face away faster than you can even have the latency to focus and snap at them.
For me, i just hate missing anyone in the clique out of my daily snaps because they are the value of my pictures, they are what that makes my snaps sentencious, they are the characters of my content.
Lately, i’ve came across with some groups of these people. While they cover up their faces quite adroitly as usual and label themself as so-called “camera-disguise”, i found such “camera-disguise” as the source of enchantment to me.
So, i had them continuously covering up their face while i continously snapping them. The results are more than what i’ve expected. I might not see their face in full … but ponder on those hands that hide the face behind them, I can still text some messages from it.
Why? Just because it’s au natural, and au natural speaks it all.
it speaks ” Peek-a-Boo!”
And mind you, It’s not just a normal “Peek-a-Boo”, it’s my Peek-a-boo, it’s the splashmilk kind.
And for all those camera-shy friend that i’m bound to meet in the future, try my peek-a-boo, because i want you to be in my memories.
Aye
PEEK-A-BOO !
Make yourself comfortable with splashmilk’s camera. Oh by the way, the Starbuck’s Caramel Iceblend here rocks!
Splashmilk is Mikel, an engineer (that doesnt quite epitomize his presentation),
a photography amateur (because he just want to shoot Angelina Jolie... naked), an insanely quirky graphic designer.
Your pure evil let loosed around Kuala Lumpur urbanscapes, Malaysia.
im happy for you xoxo

Oct 22, 2006, 9:58 pmWell. those moments will never happen again! So get working on your hands on those click-click Ket-cha Ket-cha Ket-cha Ket-cha (camera) happy memories!
I liked your theme of photography — “Peek-A-Boo” I too had a similar theme when i was younger, “hide_&_seek” basically same concept, those photos are of people well - who are camera-shy haha!
