India | Catatan Perjalanan
© 2010 Wazari Wazir | Travel Photography | Taj Mahal | Agra | India Apakah aku bermimpi? Itulah petanyaan yang sering saya tanyakan diri saya tatkala berhadapan dengan Taj Mahal, salah satu keajaiban dunia yang berjaya ku lihat dengan anak mata ku sendiri, sebelum ini hanya melihat gambaran Taj Mahal melaui kaca televisyen dan juga di majalah-majalah pelancungan dan juga majalah yang berkaitan dengan fotografi. Hinga kini, setelah lebih sebulan kembali ke tanah air, masih lagi terngiang-ngiang di telinga bunyi keretapi merentasi benua India yng cukup berwarna warni. Kali ini biarlah saya coretkan catatan perjalanan saya dalam Bahasa Malaysia, Bahasa yang mudah difahami oleh rakyat Malaysia secara umumnya, sebelum ini…

Travel Photography | Taj Mahal | Within The Frame
© 2010 Wazari Wazir | Taj Mahal | Agra India Framing is one of many technique in photography where a photographer try to draw the attention of the viewer to the main subject, which in this case the Majestic Taj Mahal. In this case I use UWA or Ultra Wide Angle Lens 10-20mm to frame this picture, without UWA lens, I don’t think I will get to frame Taj Mahal like this. It is natural for UWA lens to have a little bit of distortion, it’s normal, so I really don’t mind so much about the distortion. Among few things that you should take into consideration when framing your shot…

© 2010 Wazari Wazir | Travel Photography | Wide World Choosing the right lens for the right subject can produce wonder, this is a small mosque located next to Taj Mahal to the left if you coming from this main entrance, actually not many people pray here, maybe it was pack during friday prayer but I don’t know.

I don’t think I will manage to do justice with this picture if I don’t have UWA Ultra Wide Angle Lens, I know that different lenses produce different perspective but when you want to show your subject the…

Travel Photography | Life is a Journey, Not Destination
© 2010 Wazari Wazir | Travel Photography | Taj Mahal Agra | Life is a Journey Finally on June 15 we were standing in front of Taj Mahal, one of seven wonders of the world. I just could not believe my eyes that finally we are here after very long arduous journey. Back then in Malaysia my home country, Taj Mahal can be considered as far reaching out place, a dream destination for many of us, there were five of us in my group. All of us have never been here in Agra before. We choose the long road to get here, a Golden Triangle Road, usually most people will…

Travel Photography | Sunset at Taj Mahal
I took this picture from the rooftop of our hotel, Saii Palace Hotel in Taj Ganj area, just few minute before we leave this hotel for New Delhi. I use 50mm lens for this shot, I wish I’ve a longer lens but I don’t have, In fact the only lens that I bring with me in India is 50mm and 10-20mm lens, talking about traveling light. I wish the weather was very good but it was just quite “okay” for me but not what I’m hoping for. The sun was on the far left side of this picture, so if I want to include the sun in the frame, Taj…
