    Travel Photography | It’s a Wide World

    © 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 took this shot with 10-20mm lens to really capture it’s beauty and grandeur. 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 | Taj Mahal | Within The Frame

    Taj Mahal has been photograph million times and I guess each possible angle has been taken already including framing like this one, I’ve always imagine this kind of frame back home in Kuala Lumpur before I went to India. I purposely wait for that person to enter the frame just to have a centre of attraction to make it more interesting, without the presence of a human, I think this picture will look a bit boring, I know that some people hate to have people in their picture, they try to eliminate them or wait until the frame is clear from unwanted people presence. This shot would not be possible…

    Travel Photography | Choosing The Right Lens

    Just a quick post today, I took this shot with Sigma Lens 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC Lens. I’m not using a full frame camera so I need to get this UWA or Ultra Wide Angle Lens for this type of shot. I need to get everything in the frame to show how magnificent the architecture is and how grand this area is, in fact before I start this journey to India I’ve done few “homework’s” by watching all the pictures about Taj Mahal and it’s surrounding that I can find on the internet and study what focal length is mostly used by the photographers who have been here and most…

    Travel Photography | Taj Mahal | Seven Wonders of The World

    © 2010 Wazari Wazir | Taj Mahal | Taj Ganj | Agra India This is not the best angle to get Taj Mahal picture if you hoping to get that postcard kind of look. This is rare view of Taj Mahal, usually people don’t post thins kind of picture because it doesn’t look beautiful and maybe some people are afraid that everyone who seen this kind of picture will make an assumption  that the photographer doesn’t know how to pick the best possible angle. I dare to be different here, the purpose for this picture from this angle is to show to everyone who have never been to Taj Mahal…
