Sambutan Hari Kebangsaan Malaysia Ke-59
© 2016 Wazari Wazir | Department of Information Malaysia | 59th National Day Celebrations | Kuala Lumpur Seawal jam 7 AM pagi lagi saya dah terpacak di hadapan pentas VVVIP ni, mulanya saya dah rasa cuak juga sebab waktu sampi di sini, hujan mulai turun, silap saya juga tidak buat preparation, lupa nak bawa plastik untuk cover kamera saya, in case hujan lebat. Alhamdulillah dalam pukul 7:30 AM hujan mula reda tetapi sepanjang majlis berlangsung suasana agak mendung.

Merdeka | 56th Malaysia’s Independence Day | My Sovereign Malaysia : My Native Land
© 2013 Wazari Wazir | Malaysia’s 56th Independence Day Celebration at Independence Square Kuala Lumpur This is some of the photographs that I managed to captured during our National Day celebrations marking the 56th anniversary of the country’s independence at Independence Square in Kuala Lumpur August 31st 2013.

Basic Photography | Composition | Using Repetition and Patterns in Photography
© 2008 Wazari Wazir | 51st Anniversary of Independence | Malaysia National Day Celebration | Kuala Lumpur I have nothing much to write here, just wanted to share with you a little bit about composition, which is using repetitive patterns for composition. The photographs above were taken in 2008 during our National Day Celebration here in Kuala Lumpur, I purposely choose a higher angle to get this shot, you will never get this kind of patterns if we shoot from the ground, same eye level with them, the only way os to shoot from above so that you can see the patterns. Using a longer lens help to make things…
