© 2014 Wazari Wazir | My Family During Langkawi Island Trip | ISO 1600 – ISO 2000 | Shutter 1/80 – 1/200 Photographers always facing this kind of things, sometimes they just don’t have any other options like, not having a flash, like me. Sometimes using flash is prohibited in certain places and sometimes, yes you can flash but in doing so, will spoil the mood in certain places.

Family Photography Outing | Black Sand Beach Langkawi
© 2014 Wazari Wazir | Family Trip at Langkawi Black Sand Beach Jetty “Photographs are footprints of our minds, mirrors of our lives, reflections from our hearts, frozen memories that we can hold in silent stillness in our hands – forever if we wish.

Black and White Portraits Photography
