Precedence Studies































An example of HDR toned picture of temple in Penang. This style of picture edit will be used in my application to enhance the color of my own photos. So, most of my visuakl representation might be edited to give more eye-candy visual to the viewers

A great interactive web from HBO. The interactive style of the webpage might inspires me to do something similar to my application.

Another great dynamic interactive looking website. The effect is just astonishing. If I have a chance, I would learn to do something like this and applied it to my application.
