    Travel | Happiness Only Real When Shared

    © 2014 Wazari Wazir | Diplodocus | London Natural History Museum “Happiness Only Real When Shared.” – Chris McCandless – Trans-Siberian Railway trip is my first trip as a Solo Traveler. Actually I did not mean to travel solo on this trip but due to some difficulties to get my friends to join me, I’ve decided to make it alone. I can’t wait forever until everyone is ready because I’ve been wanted to do this trip for quite some time already and I don’t want to prolonged any longer.

    Brothers | Once Upon a Time in Istanbul | Hagia Sophia

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Raphael and HaiQal Inside Hagia Sophia Istanbul | Turkey “Families is Where Our Nation Find Hope, Where Wings Take a Dream,” – George W. Bush – It ain’t easy to get a picture of them together, this is among the few that I like best. They are always running here and there in a different directions.

    Photography Tips For a Traveling Family | Taking Photos in a Crowded Place

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | My Family at The Entrance of Hagia Sophia | Istanbul | 24mm | ISO 3200 | f/2.8 | 1/40 I believe that those of you who travel face this some kind of a dilemma, everyone wanted to get their photos taken against a beautiful landmark of a certain cities or to get their photos taken against a beautiful spot of a certain building or monument but the problem is that, there are too many people also wanted to get their photos taken there. I think it is not polite to ask people to clear the place or the spot for awhile, so that you can…
