And just not too long ago, Sophia from The Garden Slug Cafe played gourmet chef and specially designed a few kick-ass dishes for my food photography. We certainly did have a great time at the supermarket, shopping for the freshest of ingredients and also learning a thing or two from the veteran food director! Also, we did find time for a nice cuppa at Starbucks and catching up a little! It was great hearing her share about the ups and downs of running a business and dealing with naysayers and all. Of course, its been almost two years plus and the Garden Slug Cafe is still around with the great leadership of Joseph, Sophia and Sharon slugs! I do say, all three of them deserve a pat on their shoulders for this great "gardening" effort! I am glad we became great friends with the same values to share and all working towards the same "cause"!
Fotocology started only a few months shortly after the cafe commenced business. And it all started in that little quaint cafe at Telok Kurau Lorong L! I was fiddling with my new camera before Sharon came up and say, "Hey! You wanna do an exhibition here?" And that's how Fotocology took its first baby step and never really did look back. I did a series of portraitures in black and white as my debut for the exhibition. It was titled Sons. The notion being, we are all someone's son/daughter and we all have a role to play in this society of ours. Oh man, it just brings about so much to smile about. My good friend, Jonathan from KL, was my poster boy for the exhibition I still remember! He was so gleeful about it! I probably will find time to dig out the official poster and put it up here just for good time's sake! Thank you Sluggies for opening up such a huge beautiful world for me in the realm of photography!
