LOVE

Love is an emotion of strong affection and personal attachment.In philosophical context, love is a virtue representing all of human kindness, compassion, and affection. This is how I expressed my love towards my family by capturing portrait of them with dramatic and sort of vintage tone settings in it.The background was the Ledang Mountain which is related to the legend of Puteri Gunung Ledang. Am and will busy for this whole 3 months due to my big upcoming exam. Stay tuned!

Abu

Abu Bin Mat Din is a resident of Kampung Pandan Dalam for 45 years. He got married in the 1970's and divorced with his wife around 8 to10 years ago but without any heir. He has been living alone ever since. He will be 80 years old this June and still living himself in a humble wooden house. He have been my father's friend since 30 years ago and is a very good friend of my father. Even though he had been living single for a long time,he is still happy with his life,waking up watching TV1 with a cup of coffee, going to mamak stall and get back to sleep at night. He just stopped from running a restaurant and now running a small business around Gombak with his friends.

Urban Architecture

Urban Architechture
Architecture | Cool
Urban architecture comprises buildings made for an urban setting, specifically for large or growing cities. With nearly half of the world's population currently living in urban cities, urban architecture has become a vital and thriving field of design. Special considerations of this area of design are concerned with the practicalities of city life, including high-capacity housing and workplaces, harmony of form and function, and, more recently, energy-efficient design.

For me, urban architecture still a new genre of photography in me and needs a really good art of seeing because you have to keep alert on your surrounding. The best timing to snap all the urban architectures is on early of the morning or during the golden hour. And the lens for sure is a wide-angled lens. I just discovered this genre of photography and hope to capture more urban architectures around Malaysia or maybe around the whole world

Terengganu

Hey, it's been a long absence. The blog was left abandoned since last year before my trip to East Coast of Malaysia, Terengganu. So, let's start with that journey. My father decided to go to Penang last 2 years because of the weather is fine otherwise, we might went to Terengganu last 2 years. We started our journey on the 13th December on 0800 hours with a hope that everything will be fine all the way to our first stop, Kemaman. Around 1535 hours, we arrived safely at our destiny, my nephew's house after around 6 hours of driving,seating in the car,eating and sleeping. The highway was totally challenging for my father because he is not used to the east coast highway. The hilly and crooked road really couldn't made me sleep at that time. On the first night in Kemaman, we went to a night market there and had our quick dinner there. After that,we went for a short walk on a 'pasar malam' nearby.

Next day, our tour guide for that day was my cousin's wife. Yeah,my siblings and I were that youngest cousins among the other cousins. We went to Pantai Kemasek and had a lot of shots, but most of them are kept private for personal only. Hehehe.

The view was so nice and the sky is better than in Kuala Lumpur.

We had our big ABC and some ice-creams and the wind was like so great. A great place to relax yourself. In the same day, we went to a village where most of them are fisherman.

And they make Keropok Lekor too. The most popular tit bits in Malaysia.

The next day was Friday. We started our journey around 10 am to Kuala Terengganu and took around 3 hours of driving. The view of the side of the road is so green. Sometimes,you can see the goats,the cows on the side of the road. As we arrived there,we went to our chalet at Pantai batu Burok and people said that was one of the hotspot in Kuala Terengganu. Before the day ends, we went to Masjid Kristal. It was a place where most of the replica of the mosque from all over the world were built there. Here goes a picture of us there.

We stayed for a night and the next day,we headed to Pasar Payang, a must place to go. The batiks, the cloths and I did buy a shirt and some souvenirs for my friends. A lot of picture snapped there but most of them are kept for personal memories.

Some said that it was damn hot inside here but for me it was not really hot. Maybe when I was there it was raining, but whatever it is if you have money and you want to spend them on buying traditional cloths, here is the place. Then we checked out from the chalet around 1 pm and went back to Kemaman. On the way back home, I managed to capture a portrait of a thinking man.

We also managed to stopped at Dungun. The sea wave was so powerful and big.Some of the pictures were not published at my flickr. You can check more pictures here. AS we arrived back Kemaman,we had our rest and waited for the next day to go back to Kuala Lumpur. So the last morning at Terengganu, we started with a typical breakfast, Nasi Dagang and Ikan TOngkol. What a blast that morning. SO delicious and two thumbs up for that. And last but not least, we ended our journey and arrived back to Kuala Lumpur after 5 hours of driving from 10 am. To conclude, it was a great trip and I'll come back to Terengganu next time for sure as the places there were truly awesome.Thank you and hope you have the time to go there too.
