Sunrise and Sunsets

Stepping Rocks to Nowhere

June 18, 2011 In Landscapes No Comment

It’s been a while since my last post on Flickr. I don’t get out much for sometime. So yesterday I decide to go out and Tanjung Biru, Port Dickson is the place I went. Thanks to a friend of mine in Facebook, for telling me about this location. 🙂

I have to say, if you are a seascape lover like myself, this is the place that you definitely want to go. There’s many foreground interest can be found here.

The sad thing is, I only manage to get couple of shots only, due to arriving late and the sunset was not so glorious that day. The magic hour didn’t appear at all. 🙁

Surely I will revisit this place again soon. 🙂

Satisfaction

Another photo from Pantai Robina, Penang which taken a bit later on the same day. I found a nice texture of sand forming into some kind of shape on the foreground, which is the main part of composition in this photo. Subhana’Allah, Thank you الله‎ for giving me another opportunity to see this amazing moment.

It was a satisfaction for me, when getting a shot like this and I manage to enjoy the beautiful view for a while.

Crocs

This photo was taken last weekend at Pantai Robina, Penang from a simple outing with Keris Tuah. We arrived at the location about an hour before sunset, everything seems to look quite dull at that time, because of the harsh light.

After about an hour and half, everything changes again. The beautiful colors start to come out. Subhana’Allah, at that time I was really amazed with the beautif

My third and maybe the last photo, from Art of Nature – Teluk Bahang, Penang. This photo was taken around 19.45 – Everyone was packing to go home at that time, but not me. I was still taking photos. 🙂

Details & PP: This is a single RAW file which at first I took in monochrome style on my camera. Then I change the picture style back to ‘Landscape’ in DPP and the file was transfer into photoshop. First, I did some basic adjustments like adjusting the levels, brightness/contrast, increasing saturations to get the perfect tones and then I mask it on certain part. After that, I use a lot of clone tool and clone on the sand part due to uneven surface and some footprints. Lastly, some final enhancement have been done like sharpening the image, reducing noise levels and also adding the watermark.

Tranquility

Pulau Sayak, Kedah, MY

This photo was taken from my recent visit to Pulau Sayak with some friends. Actually I was going to Sg. Petani for some business deal, and I decide to go to Pulau Sayak for sunset shooting first because the deal is on night side.

Alhamdulillah, the weather turns out nicely and the sunset was beautiful on that day. It was really amazing when beautiful colors came out at magic hour. I don’t know how to describe my feeling at that time. All I can say is I do enjoy watching and photographing the magnificent view.

Skyline Sunset

April 4, 2011 In Landscapes No Comment

I always wonder, when I’m going to see a skyline sunset. Yesterday was the answer. SubhanAllah, I have seen a beautiful skyline sunset at Pantai Murni, Yan, Kedah.

Actually this is a trip to waterfalls (Reakreasi Batu Hampar) with some friends. After almost 3 hours of swimming bath we decide to drop by at this place. It was low tide, quite disappointed at first. Then I see some old woods (maybe an old jetty) that is quite interesting, lining-up straight to the horizon. I decide to composed them in the center of my shot as the sunset was directly behind the old jetty.

This is a vertorama consist of two different exposures. I used Hoya HD Circular Polarizer to deepen the colors along with some ND Grad filter to darken the sky. Post-processing have been done in CS3.

Thank you Allah, for giving me the opportunity to enjoy this breathtaking moment..

There is always a hope..

It was heavy rain but I still decided to join an outing at Pulau Sayak, Kedah with some friends from Penang. When arriving to the location, it was still raining. Quite frustrated at first but after an hour of waiting, around 19:40 the rain stops and the beautiful light start to come out. It was really exciting at that time..

Teluk Bayu, Penang

This is the second shot from my last outing session at Teluk Bayu, Penang. The photo was taken a bit later on that day. I only manage to get few shots here because the light are disappearing really fast. Surely will go there again in future.

Anyway it’s been a while since this outing. I am now ‘craving’ for seascape action, sea spray and big waves! Hopefully can catch a good ones on this weekend! (Yeah, I know it’s 3 more days till weekend ; LOL)
