Swoosh...

Posted by Shiva (Kajang, Malaysia) on 4 March 2007 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

That was the sound I heard when the clown passed me by the first time! I waited for her to come by me again...

Hi guys!, After contemplating for so long, I have finally decided to put out my images for sale in my own photo sales site. Please visit http://www.e-ttl.com to view the site and if you see anything you like, let me know. This is a " Truly Malaysian" site that sells images from Malaysia.

So, I officially pronounce my site open for sales!! Thousands of thanks to aminus3 members and web owners to be a good friend and a true compatriot in photography to all budding photographers to be able to display their works in a blog format for free. I truly salute the aminus3 team for being very kind and humane to all of us. I wish you all the greatest of success.

Thank you.
