Beach with A Story


Pantai Irama is the most famous beach in Kelantan.It is the best beach resort for my kampung folks like me during my growing up years in 50's and 60s.During those days,we just had only the beach for ourselves.No restaurants and no facilities for us at the beach.For my family,this beach is THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND RESORT  for us,located 5km from my parent's house.



When we go for family picnic,my mother did all the cooking herself.We brought our own food and drink and mat to sit on.We kids will be on the beach running around and playing in the sea of waves.I love the waves and I still remember  a big wave hit me and I felt like drowning.Thank God I rose to the surface again.



Every month,I go back  to visit my mother at Pondok Beris,Bachok.Whenever I am free ,I will going around taking photos of a few beaches in Bachok and padi fields in the village.Taking these photos remind me of my childhood days.To promote the beauty of Bachok,I set up a fan page called Bachok is Beautiful.It is my personal photo project and it is a work in progress.One fine day,these collection of photos may become a book.It has a few dozens of my snapshots taken in the district of Bachok.



All the above photos were taken in the morning.I love the golden hour here.May I thank Allah for giving me the chance to capture these beautiful shots that I never dream of.I was very lucky to be here with a camera.

NB: According to my mother,the name of Pantai Irama was given by Allahyarham Dato' Muhammad Yaakob,ex-Menteri Besar of Kelantan when he was the DO of Bachok.

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   .

Produces excellent detail, color accuracy, and dynamic range—especially in daylight; however, images sometimes show over-sharpening on foliage/glossy textures  .
