    Once Upon a Time in Kashmir | It’s The Journey That’s Matter

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Floating Vegetable Market | Dal Lake | Kashmir The Journey “Journey are gifts we give ourselves. Even if you are lucky, and have someone else footing the bill for your journey, you are still giving yourself a gift just by going. Too many people have opportunities to travel, but choose to stay home, fearful of the unknown, shackled by their everyday rut, tied down to commitments that don’t have to tie them down if they would seek creative solutions. We can always travel right away, but we can always be planning, scheming, chiseling away at the things that keep us home so that someday in…

    Travel Photography | Why You Should Visit Kashmir in Winter

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Kashmir in Winter To Kashmiri people, they will always told you to come visit Kashmir in summer, it’s beautiful some people said, in fact,  summer is the peak season here in Kashmir, while winter is considered as  low season. Actually there will never be a perfect time to visit Kashmir or any other place in this world. To photographers it depends on their preferences. If you come from four season countries, then maybe you would like to come in summer but for me, who came from Malaysia, a hot tropical country, I preferred winter. Anyway, I just wanted to narrow things down here a bit,…

    Travel Photography | Postcard From Kashmir | A Troubled Paradise

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Kashmir | Paradise on Earth | A Troubled Paradise “A lot of us first aspired to far-ranging travel and exotic adventure early in our teens; these ambitions are, in fact, adolescent in nature, which I find an inspiring idea…Thus, when we allow ourselves to imagine as we once did, we know, with a sudden jarring clarity, that if we don’t go right now, we’re never going to do it. And we’ll be haunted by our unrealized dreams and know that we have sinned against ourselves gravely.”  – Tim Cahill – Tweet news and informationbusiness,health,entertainment,technology automotive,business,crime,health,life,politics,science,technology,travel

    My Best Photographic Experience in 2012

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Photograph of Me by Azman Jumat at Dal Lake Kashmir To begin with this is not a set of my best photographs of 2012 but it is among a few collections of my photographic experience this year. If you have been following my blog for a while, you’ll know that I’m a photographer working with the government of Malaysia and photography also happens to be my hobby. Why I’m saying this because sometimes, working photographers have other hobbies as well and not necessarily related to photography, I know some photographers who like cycling, fishing and riding a big bike during their free times but for…

    Travel Photography | Eye On Kashmir

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Once Upon a Time in Kashmir | Dal Lake Talking about Kashmir, actually to be honest with you, I really don’t know how to describe it and no matter how I try, no matter how hard I try to photograph Kashmir the best that I can do with my camera, I don’t think my photographs can do justice to its beauty. Yes Kashmir has it own problem, my country also has it’s own problem but then I can see beauty in Kashmir and I’m not here by accident, I choose to be here. I don’t believe what people say about Kashmir, I want to find…
