First features for KK Photographer 88 are very well known old-school photographer / skateboard in the early 90's from Labuan who often skate and take photos in Red Square.
Charles William Gedius or well knows as Ah Chai.

Although Ah Chai photos are purposely taken like a candid shot but because of his passion towards photography. Most of his photos can tell a story, with his working experience as a publisher. His photo editting in digital era has given him to maintain the classy look most of his photos.

He has 3 philosophy about photography that is :
One thing:
I realize that earth is actually "flat". But seeing it in viewfinder, it is the other way around.

Two things:
I see potential "object" everywhere... need to feel it and be one with the subject.

Three things:
Photos should be the subject of discussion and not to be admired or praised. In fact there is no so called "Perfect" photos in the whole wide world.
