REFLECTION ON MY PHOTOGRAPHY:2012-2017-TAKE THREE

I have two smartphone cameras during this period 2012-2017-both Samsung Galaxy.The Note 3 was my first and when it died,I have to buy Note5. Hopefully, Note 5 will last another year because Note8 too much for me to pay. By the way,when Samsung first launched its first smartphone,I refused to attend the event because I looked down on Samsung as a phone manufacturer. At that time,I was very happy with my Nokia N8-the best smartphone camera I ever had from Nokia before it went under. What a pity!

Why I did I migrate to Samsung Galaxy Note 3? It is the Stylus and the camera and the bigger size. As I grow older,I need a bigger screen and I love to write. Now,I had fallen in love with this Note5 and I am not bothered to change to other brands. Most likely an upgrade to Note 8 and later versions.

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...
