Shaved It Off

I choose a skin-head. Its comfortable, minimal maintenance and it makes me look like I just got off prison. Fwahahaha! Before I had hair reaching past my shoulders and I just can't feel comfortable about it, especially when its hot because I perspire a lot. Also been using product on my hair to have some spikes and whatever. I love burning out myself with running and badminton, so it does mean a lot to me to think less about my hair when I am dripping wet with sweat (yes, that is eeew, but it feels great, haha!). 

Took this photo right after I visited a barber shop in the market. Paid 50 for the service and had some real massage extra from it, something that you won't get from somewhere else. Before, I would pay like around 200 bucks for a crappy hairstyle. Shaving all the hair off is not just for comfort, also good for your pocket. It just is so practical. 

Time for some photography. I have here a shot of myself using the rotating live view of my Nikon D5000. I so love this feature because I can take a photo of myself! Didn't post process this one. The reds on photo are from the red curtain directly sun-lit on my left. It gives a dramatic feel on this photo (making me more of an ex-convict! haha!), with the help of some contrast. As every photography guru would say (well, as far as all I have encountered), the magic comes from lighting. 

Hope you could give me feedback about the photo and the whole blog! :D
