The Trails

September 7, 2012 In Seascapes Sunrise and Sunsets No Comment

Assalamualaikum and good evening everyone! Another recent shot from Port Dickson on a simple outing with my Flickr friends. Like I said in my previous post here, even though the sun setting not right in front of this spot, we still got a bit of the colors! I had a great time playing with the waves on that evening! So here’s another result. 😀 This place have a lot of potential for seascape shooting, maybe will pay another visit on low tide after this.

I did some cloning on the right side of the image to get rid a bunch of trees that fall under the frame. It was a very tight spot with lot of trees hanging around all over the place! 😀

The Dancing Waves

Assalamualaikum and good evening everyone! Here’s my recent shot from Port Dickson on a simple outing with Flickr friends. But too bad that on this spot the sun was setting a bit right to it. Nevertheless, we still got the reflected colors. It was a high tide, I had great time playing with slow shutter and jumping waves! Of course me and my camera are all wet! Maybe I have to upgrade to a weather seal camera and lenses. 😛 This is a single RAW shot taken with 3 stop GND and 3 stop full ND.

Magic Hour at UMS

August 15, 2012 In Seascapes Sunrise and Sunsets No Comment

Assalamualaikum & selamat malam everyone! A new entry and this time the sunset shot was taken at University Malaysia Sabah (UMS) on nature’s best moment, the magic hour. It’s was a great splash of colors on that evening. Sadly I only managed to get a few good shots only. Find it quite difficult to composed as the tide rising very fast. Anyway, here’s my first shot from UMS.

Assalamualaikum and good day everyone! Another Tip of Borneo shot, but this time on long exposure mode. 🙂 It was taken a bit after the Twilight Rush Hour shot and it was still on the same composition. A 30 seconds exposure is enough to blur out all the water and we are so fortunate that the sunset was beautiful on that evening!

I forgot to do a video recording for this compo with my camera that’s too bad kan! But luckily I managed to record one with my iPhone at this time. 🙂

Broken Pier Sunset

October 4, 2011 In Landscapes No Comment

As’salam & good evening everyone..

Last weekend I went for an outing with my friend Tahfiz at Pantai Remis, Kuala Selangor..We decide to shoot sunset at this broken pier spot..The tide was perfect for playing with slow shutter speed, but the sunset was not so glorious on that day..Nevertheless, we still enjoy the session!

So here’s my first shot from Remis..For this shot I use 3 stops ND Grad to balance the light between the sky and the foreground..I also use a Circular Polarizer to saturate the colors..

Skel og Rokk

July 25, 2011 In Landscapes No Comment

Hey guys! Another picture from Jeram, but this time no more jumping waves because the tide is decreasing as the nightfall. According to the exif data, this shot was taken at 20.05. Isn’t it awesome, the light is still amazing at that time!

The title Skel og Rokk is from Icelandic word which means Shell and Rock. Actually I was dreaming about Iceland when posting this picture, so I decide to give it a title in Icelandic.

Back to the shot, I used a slow shutter speed to catch some of the wave motion passing through both the rock and the shell. But the waves just passing through the rock. Nevertheless, I think it still look cool.

I guess Jeram series have come to the end for now. Hope everyone enjoy the series! :))

Encountering Jeram

July 24, 2011 In Landscapes No Comment

Hey guys! Here’s my closest encounter with Jeram spray on that day taken on different angle. Yes, I do got wet a little by this waves. Luckily my so-not-weather-seal lens was covered by 4×6 nd grad filter. I guess nd grad not just for balancing the sky, also it can protect your lens from salt spray! 😛

As for this shot, I use the same technique like the previous post, which is Digital Blending. Two exposures shot, one for the sky and one for the waves. Both were manually blended in Photoshop.

Hope you guys enjoy the picture! 🙂
