PHOTOBOOKS

I plan to print a photobook every month last year 2017, but sadly I was too busy taking photos and none gets printed. To ensure I get it done this year,I must allocate time for it. Otherwise,it will just be another dream or deferred assignment gets carried forward from year to year. Just to remind myself,printing is a part of my photography journey. These printed are about my life, my stories,and my photos.How come I neglect them?


Thank God to my DIL who is good at making photobooks for her children. To-date, I have received at least three free photobooks and one of them is shown above. I love all of them. Hopefully,I learn my lesson to do at least three photobooks in 2018.

My proposed themes are about places and genres.The first three I want to do are:

1.Bachok is Beautiful
2.Postcards of Putrajaya
3.My Family Memories

How about you?How many photobooks that you print last year,2017?

  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...
