TREES LANDSCAPE



The last line of coconut trees along Pantai Irama,Bachok.Now,all these trees are gone.No one bother to plant new ones.Sad but true to many beautiful beaches around the country.Instead,more food stalls are constructed.




Some of my photos received more than 100 likes  and my Facebook friends left very generous comments like beautiful,great ,wow and other nice words.What are the meaning of those words to a photographer?The components of beauty are mainly but not limited to composition,lighting,creativity and technicality.Similar  in  ingredients to make a good buryani rice or nasi dagang.

Just like taking a landscape photo,most of us can do in the same manner  as most of us can cook rice.But we all know that only a few can cook nasi dagang or nasi buryani.The same goes to taking great landscape photography.


I am using the food as analogy to enable better understanding of what I am going to say and pass the message to my readers.The food may be decorated to look visually nice but the real thing is the taste and the experience felt by the one who eats the food that matters.



The above photos can look nice but what is the message? The  message means more that what we photographers can show using the image we captured.Not just message,but also the story!If not ,it is just like a beautiful food that no one eats it.

Here,I am exploring the beauty of trees landscape.Tree is the most abundant on our planet earth but depleting slowly and surely as we continue building concrete jungle instead.I am happy to note that we at last realised our follies and now more interested to live in greener environment.Now,city folks are going out more to see the greener pastures.

And we photographers must inspire and motivate our folks to go back to nature and enjoy  happier and healthier  lifestyle.How do we go about doing that?Your suggestions are most welcome.

Let the photo speak first?

  Should photographers explain their photos, or let the images speak for themselves? A strong photograph can stand on its own. 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...
