Shadows


One of the reasons I like this location to shoot street photography is the presence of the shadows on the floor.The shadows form their own art of works depending on the time of the day and the sun brightness.When the shadows and the light fall on the people faces and their dresses,they look different and at time weird looking.Light is a very important element in the photo.Without the light,we see nothing.


When no one is going down the escalator,I will wait patiently for the people to come up.As soon as they are arriving on my floor where I was standing,I just snap their photos so that they do not have enought time react.I was trying to get natural look on their faces as shown below.


At times,I follow my subject all the way up or down the escalators.From this exercise,I learnt that planning ,hard work and patience are keys to successful shots.Good luck also plays its own card.

Below are two shots when no one was around..

It invites people to look, pause, and interpret the moment in their own way. But sometimes a few words from the photographer reveal the quiet story behind the frame — what was seen, felt, or noticed in that fleeting moment. Perhaps the balance is this: Let the photo speak first. Let the words gently reflect afterwards. 📷

SOLITUDE

  Solitude at the Water’s Edge At the quiet margins of Putrajaya Wetlands Park, moments of stillness often reveal themselves in the simplest scenes. This photograph captures one such moment — a lone bird standing calmly in the shallow waters of the wetlands, surrounded by patches of emerging green and a mirror-like surface that reflects the sky above. What makes this scene compelling is its sense of solitude. The bird stands alone, yet it does not appear lonely. Instead, it seems completely at ease in its environment. The calm water, lightly textured by ripples, creates a soft canvas where reflections blur the boundary between sky and earth. The bird’s reflection anchors it in the frame, quietly doubling its presence in the landscape. The composition embraces minimalism. Most of the frame is filled with open water and subtle tones, allowing the bird to become the natural focal point. The scattered patches of grass break the uniformity of the water surface and hint at the slow, livi...
