This week’s Photojazz Five interviewee is one of the good guys. No, he doesn’t wear underwear outside of a brightly-colored unitard and sport a cape (although he should), but he does have a selfless heart. Through his administration at PhotoMalaysia and with 35 years of experience in his utility belt (next to thebatarangs), he mentors other photographers in his community, both through authoring articles and actual, physical tutoring. Along with another administrator at PhotoMalaysia, he conducts regular “Photosafari Experiences” (PMPE), which consist of a couple of in-classroom days followed by one-to-three weeks of hands-on shooting in exotic Asian locales.
Oh, and he’s a good street photographer, too.

Most street photographs tend to center around moments in movement because movement surrounds us all the time and it is rarely hidden. It is easy to catch if you have your timing down. On the other hand, natural expressions [...]
I absolutely adore metrorail systems. Perhaps it’s because I’m a born-and-raised Los Angelino and never rode a light rail until I was an adult and had moved to a different city. The last time I visited LA I did notice that they did have a couple rail lines running. I hear they are as ‘good’ [...]
As can be easily gleaned from my deviantArt gallery, 99% of my street photography is taken outdoors in broad daylight. The benefits to this are obvious: fast shutter speeds for exact moment-catching, smaller f-stops to get more of the environment in focus, lower EIs for more definition, and so on. Taking photos, especially street shots, [...]
We see them a lot on the street, don’t we? Interesting subjects. Not just interesting subjects, but a continuing series of interesting moments and interactions between those interesting subjects. Normally, we take a quick photo, perhaps pausing a bit to get the right moment, and move on. How often do we stick with a particular [...]
