Photography Tips | How To Photograph The Stars
© 2013 Wazari Wazir | The Stars at Mount Kinabalu | Photograph Taken at KM8.0 I’m not really into astrophotography but I would like to share with you on how I got this shot.

Travel and Photography | Postcard From Mount Kinabalu
© 2013 Wazari Wazir | Road Less Traveled at Mont Kinabalu | Borneo “All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God’s eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.” – John Muir – Tweet news and informationbusiness,health,entertainment,technology automotive,business,crime,health,life,politics,science,technology,travel
