Recognition on Viewbug

This has to be the happiest day of my photography life so far. Came back from a working trip to Penang, sat down at my computer only to find that one of my images has been selected as a favourite by the judge of an online photography contest that I entered.



Now, that is what I call a perfect start to a great weekend. :)

Milky and landscape shooting in Bali

Wow!!! Bali is such an amazing destination for photographing landscapes and of course my favourite, the Milky Way. Although it was a little cloudy when I was there, we were able to capture the Milky easily when the clouds broke in between as the environment there is just so clean with no haze and relatively very little pollutants in the skies.

Luck was definitely on my side as I managed to capture 2 awesome frames with shooting stars and meteors passing by the earth's atmosphere in my shots.

This shot was taken at Jatiluwih at the rice terraces. It was cloudy and misty but it was absolutely possible to get the Milky just when the clouds cleared a little bit.

This was taken from the porch in front of my hotel room at Amed. At that moment, it was even possible to see the Milky with naked eyes and it just makes it so much more easier to compose the shot.

Two more shots of the Milky at Bali. According to our guide, it was a rare sight to see the peak of Mount Agung in the 2nd pic so clear at night without cloud covers. Got lucky again I guess. :)

This is Mount Agung in daytime. Don't it look grand?

Sorry for being away for so long

I would like to put forward my utmost sincerest apology for being incognito for so long. Truth to be told, I was busy attending workshops on portraits and did not really had the heart plus time to update this site.

Will be away in glorious Bali from 6th to 11th June for some nightscape shots so for the meantime, I would like to share some of the latest portraits that I have shot in the past few weeks.

Further to that, I will be planning a portrait photoshoot package for those who want some profile pictures taken or even customised themes if you are so inclined. Check back here next week for more information.
