Travel Photography | Bhaktapur Nepal, I’ll Be Back
© 2013 Photograph of Me at Baktapur Nepal Taken By Mhilmi “Were there nothing else in Nepal, save the Durbar Square of Bhaktapur, it would still be amply worth making a journey halfway round the globe to see.” – E.A. Powell – If I ever need just one reason to visit Nepal again other than for trekking, it is because of Bhaktapur, I really fell in love with this place, talking about love at first sight.

In Thamel we stay…

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…
