Photojournalism The Official Opening Ceremony of Third Session of 13th Parliament by The Yang di-Pertuan Agong

© 2015 Wazari Wazir | Malaysia’s King, Tuanku Abdul Halim Mu’adzam Shah, deliver his royal address for the first meeting at the opening of the third session of the 13th Parliament, here in Kuala Lumpur, on March 9th 2015.

I just wanted to share a different look of this event taken at the parliament during the opening of the third session of the 13th Parliament here in Kuala Lumpur.

The Photo Op, or photo opportunity to photograph this event inside the parliament hall is just for two minutes only but most media personnel were already at the parliament compound three hours earlier.

I was inside Dewan Rakyat around 9:30 am and the event took place at 11:00 am. It is normal for a media personnel especially the photographers to come early and wait for a few hours just to get a few precious minutes of photo opportunity, in this case just two minutes. Some media agency send more than one photographers to cover the event, so that they can have multiple angle of coverage, it is quite impossible to running around to switch angles, so we must pick one and stay there. If you want to see the color version of the photograph above, feel free to visit my flickr site.
