Travel Photography | Sunset at Taj Mahal
I took this picture from the rooftop of our hotel, Saii Palace Hotel in Taj Ganj area, just few minute before we leave this hotel for New Delhi. I use 50mm lens for this shot, I wish I’ve a longer lens but I don’t have, In fact the only lens that I bring with me in India is 50mm and 10-20mm lens, talking about traveling light. I wish the weather was very good but it was just quite “okay” for me but not what I’m hoping for. The sun was on the far left side of this picture, so if I want to include the sun in the frame, Taj…

Travel Photography | Agra | Children of Heaven

This is not the main street in Taj Ganj area, the main street is on…

This shot would not be possible…

Travel Photography | Istanbul Turkey | Sunrise | Silhouette
© 2009 Wazari Wazir | Istanbul Turkey | Sunrise This is truly a “Room With a View”, I took this shot from my hotel room in Hilton Istanbul during my last stay there before heading back to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in November 2009. The lighting here is not the same like in Malaysia, I can still felt the warmth of the morning sunrise at Istanbul, just less than a kilometer away from my room is Bosphorus Istanbul, during a quiet time I can hear clearly the sound of the ship horn cruising along the famous Bosphorus. I was in shock when I woke up from the sleep and can’t believe…
