  1. salam bro..spertimana anda,saya jugak minat sama fotografi.Secara teknikalnya..saya masih baru dlm bidang ini.Namun akhir2 ini,saya rasa minat saya telah bertukar kepada seni lukisan(ada sdikit bakat),mungkin kerana diskusi saya bersama teman2 di satu kwsn rehat. Bagi saya,lukisan lebih berpengaruh sifatnya..mungkin dari sudut materialnya...Justeru itu saya rasa agak kabur ttg minat saya sama ada fotografi @lukisan...minta pandangan bro..terutama kekuatan fotografi ini..wsalam

  2. salam,okaylah sebenarnya bidang foto dgn lukisan ni tak berbeda,cuma aplikasinya.saya pun dilatih dalam seni halus (arca,lukisan dan catan)tetapi masih mengaplikasikannya kepada dua2 bidang tersebut.Kreativiti dalam fotografi dapat membantu menghasilkan lukisan yang menarik dan kreativiti dalam lukisan dapat mengasah mata/pandangan(observation)kita dalam fotografi.Tak salah saudara mencuba dua2 bidang,insyaallah moga berjaya kelak.
