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 Photographer | Be Yourself
If you were to ask me any good advice that I can give to my fellow photographers especially to those of you who just starting out with this hobby is this, just “be yourself”. I do believe that each of us are unique on their own. I believe everyone is different but sometime we try to be somebody else, we try to clone somebody else especially those who have succeed, especially those who are popular, those who have large followers but sometimes we are not being true to ourselves, we are not being honest with ourselves. There is nothing wrong if we adore certain people, there is nothing wrong if…
