    Kami Bukan Kaya | Kami Backpackers Berpoket Nipis

    © 2012 Azman Jumat | Melayan Penjual Cenderahati Di Tasik Dal | Kashmir | India Sedang saya bersama rakan saya Azman Jumat, meronda-ronda sekitar Dal Lake dengan shikara, tiba-tiba datang sebuah perahu kecil mendekati kami, dari jauh dah nampak, meluru laju ke arah kami. Dalam hati risau jugak, takut kena “Paw” ke apa, takut pengemudi shikara kami dah pakat panggil orang kampung untuk jadikan kami habuan atau tebusan, maklumlah pengalaman baru di sini, ianya bukan sesuatu yang kami jangkakan. Mungkin juga tak cukup research sebelum saya ke Kashmir. kami ni bukannya bawa banyak wang ringgit, datang pun dengan AirAsia bukannya Malaysia Airlines “I came from the village, I’m village people” sambil…

    Once Upon a Time in Kashmir | It’s The Journey That’s Matter

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Floating Vegetable Market | Dal Lake | Kashmir The Journey “Journey are gifts we give ourselves. Even if you are lucky, and have someone else footing the bill for your journey, you are still giving yourself a gift just by going. Too many people have opportunities to travel, but choose to stay home, fearful of the unknown, shackled by their everyday rut, tied down to commitments that don’t have to tie them down if they would seek creative solutions.

    Travel Photography | Postcard From Kashmir | A Troubled Paradise

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Kashmir | Paradise on Earth | A Troubled Paradise “A lot of us first aspired to far-ranging travel and exotic adventure early in our teens; these ambitions are, in fact, adolescent in nature, which I find an inspiring idea…Thus, when we allow ourselves to imagine as we once did, we know, with a sudden jarring clarity, that if we don’t go right now, we’re never going to do it. And we’ll be haunted by our unrealized dreams and know that we have sinned against ourselves gravely.”  – Tim Cahill – Tweet news and informationbusiness,health,entertainment,technology automotive,business,crime,health,life,politics,science,technology,travel

    My Best Photographic Experience in 2012

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Photograph of Me by Azman Jumat at Dal Lake Kashmir To begin with this is not a set of my best photographs of 2012 but it is among a few collections of my photographic experience this year. If you have been following my blog for a while, you’ll know that I’m a photographer working with the government of Malaysia and photography also happens to be my hobby. Why I’m saying this because sometimes, working photographers have other hobbies as well and not necessarily related to photography, I know some photographers who like cycling, fishing and riding a big bike during their free times but for…
