Kids Klick Outing - organised by Photo Malaysia Forum - Putrajaya

Photo Malaysia Forum has organised not only one but this is the 4th time. Kids Klick is a community project aimed at unearthing young photography talent and spread the joy of photography to underprivileged childeren. Under the guidance of PhotoMalaysia.com community members, they teach the orphans from different orphanage homes the basic principles of photography and have fun together with the experiences. As their tag lne is 'Now all kids can klick'. This is a not-for-profit organization that bring out the children to see the world by expressing themselve by taking pictures that sometime we (adults) can see what they see.

Although I'm one of the community but I had missed few of the projects but I didn't miss this one. PhotoMalaysia.com has organised the Kids Klick outing at Putrajaya Mosque last Saturday. There were 30 kids from Bangi's Orphanage home (if I'm not mistaken) and almost 30 community members attended. 15 volunteers from the community members to help or to be the guidance of the children. Each volunteer to guide 2 kids of taking photographs around the Putrajaya Mosque. I was one of them with assisted by Wai Ling (my new colleague) to guide Nor (short form name, as his name is long) and Nasha (same to her name too, long). I was taking care of Nasha who is 7 years old and Wai Ling took care of Nor who is 9 years old. Nor and Nasha were both biological brother and sister. We took them around while they holding the Digi-Cam to shoot around. We teached them what angle to shoot and how to take a better pictures.

I was pity Nor as her fingers were short and small. Whenever she pressed the button to shoot, the camera went shaken but luckily the camera was P&S (point & shoot). She took some pictures that were good but I haven't seen Nor's pictures as he was using different Digi-Cam fom Nasha's.

It was a good experience on an outing with the orphans although we seldom use to go out to do some charity works as we were busy working on saving money for our better life. Never thought of the orphanages or the oldfolks to nourish their life by visiting them or do some charity works for them.

Although times with the orphanages was short but they do really enjoy themselve with shooting and had a great lunch at McDonald, Alamanda; thanks to the generous
man who was one of the community members, Uncle Noordin.

Nothing much to talk more about that, but can find out more on the CHIP Photo-Video Digital Magazine (which I worked for) on May issue or maybe can check on here.

And here are the pictures that I shoot by using the same camera as Nasha used to show the example how to shoot better pictures. She learns fast though. :)
