Cycling Photos in Holland


On the invitation of my late friend Guus Libernstein,I packed and took a flight to Amsterdam in the last week of April,2012
.From the Schipol Airport,I took a beautiful double decker train to Leiden.There began my five-day journey in Leiden,Keukenhof and Amsterdam.Below is a photo taken by Guus of his wife and me at a tulip field on the way to Keukenhof.





I have taken a few hundreds of photos,but here let me share two beuatiful tulips that I really like!





Guus and Marjolein were very kind to take me cycling around Leuden,the dykes and the sand dunes.In Amsterdam,I joined a bike hire group to roam the city for three hours.How I wish I have a week to cycle in Amsterdam and visit the nooks and the corners.


In Amsterdam and Holland in general,you can see more people cycling than driving or on their motor-cycles.More than three decades ago,The Dutch people had bad experience with cars and feul price.They made that wise choice,and with good leadership and management,they became world leaders in city cycling.This also had attracted the world tourists to visit Holland.

Sadly,I was more interested in cycling than photography.So,I managed to get few photos about people cycling in Holland.Now,a group of us are making plan to go cycling in Holland next year.With better cameras and better skills and more passion this time,I plan to snap a few hundreds of people cycling in Holland comes May,2017.InsyaAllah.

KB WALK

I planned to have four days of Photowalking around Kota Bharu #KBWalk ,but due to unplanned family errands which I love doing for my  mother and son,I only managed to have two days with only less than 4 hours.Herewith I shared two photos taken behind Pejabat PAS. To do justice to the town,I need at least 7 full days and nights to capture the history  and culture of the place.My first attempt had revealed a lot more for me to explore,discover and capture.Another missing dimension I need to have with me before I embark on KBWalk is the history of Kota Bharu. It has to be another time..May be after Eidil Fitri.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MY IPHONE 14 ProMax VS FUJIFILM XT20

No camera is suitable for every occasion. Here is a simple comparison. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and I love both. When I go photowalking with friends, I use more smartphones than the Fujifilm XT20. FUJIFILM XT20 iPhone 14 Pro Max (Smartphone) vs Fujifilm X-T20 (Mirrorless) – Image Quality Breakdown IPHONE 14 PRO MAX 1. Sensor & Processing iPhone 14 Pro Max Uses a 48 MP quad-pixel sensor that down-samples to 12 MP by default; ProRAW unlocks full 48 MP output   . Features Apple’s “Photonic Engine” that enhances detail, color, and low-light performance via computational photography  . Produces excellent detail, color accuracy, and dynamic range—especially in daylight; however, images sometimes show over-sharpening on foliage/glossy textures  . DXOMARK cites strengths like vivid color, wide dynamic range, sharp detail, and low noise; potential drawbacks include clipping highlights and noise indoors  . Fujifilm X-T20 Features a...
