1st week assignments

once again i've decided to learn photography a bit further, this time i've taken up a photojournalism workshop at GFJA, the same place i studied basic photography a while back. at the workshop, we act as photojournalists, we are given weekly assignments, then the mentor (rully kesuma) will asses and comment on our photos. this week we were given the freedom to photographed anything that we want, as long as it posseses news value. below are some pictures from last week's assignment.

the one and the other

finding the perfect 'somebody' is not an easy thing to do,and i'm not merely talking about the romantical kind of perfect, such as romeo-juliet (probably not a good example due to their tragic ending), simpson's homer-marge. the relationship could also be work related, like sukarno-hatta, woodward-bernstein, and lets not forget about lennon-mccartney (or is it mccartney-lennon?) or they could also be family members, like the wright brothers.
but sometimes it doesn't have to be about finding the perfect partner, but it could also be about the perfect rival. eg. superman-lex luthor, steve jobs-bill gates

those mention above are a prime examples of partnership (or rivalries) at its best, why? because you can't mention the one without the other. the one encourages the other to be better and in the end, they would both achieve greatness (or suffer a tragic death).

so let us find our partners in crime, in life, and if we're lucky in love
