Starfish vs Coral

Bismillah..Assalamualaikum and very good evening to everyone! I wish you guys have a great weekend!

So here’s my next photo from the recent Sabah Photo Tour. Another shot taken at the Tip of Borneo, Simpang Mengayau where the South China Sea meets the Sulu Sea. This is on our second day here. We decided to stayed for another day because on the first day many of us did not get the best shot. I think it is because of the view is just too amazing that makes everyone loss in composing their shot. Hey, I faced the same problem too! But luckily, I managed to get few ‘okay’ shots on the first day. 🙂

Patience vs Faith

Bismillah..Assalamualaikum and good morning everyone! An advance shot of ‘Salam Jumaat’ from me. 😀 This shot is taken on sunrise at Likas mosque in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

It was a lovely morning, this shot was taken on our first day in Sabah. This mosque is amazingly beautiful with the lake around it and it gave a nice reflection when the water’s not moving.

Kedamaian River

April 12, 2012 In Landscapes No Comment

Assalamualaikum and good evening everyone! I just came back from a five days photo trip in Sabah, 12 person in total we travel to capture some of the best landscape & seascape that Sabah offers.

Here’s my first photo from the trip which was taken in Kedamaian river in Kota Belud. Actually I fell asleep inside the van, when superfriends stopping by to photograph this river. Only about 15 minutes later I awake, then I was rushing to get down to the river. I only got 5 shots at this place, but still Alhamdulillah, I was lucky to captured this fascinating view. I just love this place so much because it’s position that lead straight toward the mountains and the sky at this time were so blue! Also the rocks here have a nice round shapes that make it looks even good and it is very relaxing when photographing it!

Kelanang’s Story – The Old Roots

January 29, 2012 In Black & White Seascapes 2 Comments

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone. This is my latest shot which was taken at Pantai Kelanang, Banting. As I was saying in my old post, this place is the real deal for landscape photographers to challenge themselves in composition. This is because the natural surface here is full with mangrove trees which make its difficult to compose a clean shot. The trees will always be in front of the camera. So what are you waiting for? Go there and challenge yourself! 😀

About the shot, it was a long exposure of 90 seconds and I used Lee 10 stops ND filter a.k.a the big stopper to cut out the bright light along with 3 stops ND Grad to balance the sky. Editing are done with Photoshop and Nik Silver Efex Pro 2.

Hope everyone likes it. Enjoy your weekend yeah!

Morning Glory

Assalamualaikum and good morning everyone! First of all I want to wish Happy Chinese New Year & Gong Xi Fa Cai to all my chinese friends and readers! Have a great new year guys!

Okay about the shot it was taken on a simple outing with Keris Tuah, back in May last year in Penang. I forgotten this place name, but I remember it was somewhere near Jelutong Bandar Baru (correct me if I’m wrong). As you can see, it was a glorious morning with this very beautiful sunrise colors. Plus it was even perfect with the shoreline being so still and creates a very serene reflection.

It was really worth it, waking up so early in the morning just to captured and enjoyed this breathtaking view.

Assalamualaikum and good evening everyone. It’s been a while since my last post. New year have been a great start for me, many things happen from good to bad. Everything happened for a reason and I’m glad it happened because it makes me a stronger and wiser person today.

Enough about me, about the shot, it was my last sunset of 2011 which was taken at Port Dickson. A very small outing with a friend, we brave our self to stay out up to this magic hour. It was worth it.

Dreamy Dusk

December 11, 2011 In Seascapes Sunrise and Sunsets No Comment

Hello everyone! How’s your Sunday going? Hope doing great yeah. I’m enjoying my Sunday editing another photo from recent Port Dickson visit. It’s called ‘Dreamy Dusk Sunset’. This is because the long exposures effect make the waters looks very dreamy. It’s quite dark at the time I take this shot so I used only two ND Grad filters and a 30 seconds exposures is enough to blur out the water.
