EXPLORING THE DARKER SIDE

KENNY'S ROGERS RESTAURANT


There are many things hidden and possibly lurking under the cover of darkness. At the same time, there exist some pockets of beauty and mysteries waiting to unfold. The photo above is a night shot but below is a morning shot with strong lighting and strong shadows of the morning sun.



The darker side exists for many reasons-some natural and some man-made. Below is the inadequately lighted passageway between shops before they are open. It has  its own beauty.


Here is someone reading the Quran during the flight. She sat next to me. I purposely darkened her body to hide her identity. The photo looks like a graphic design to me but I love this composition.


Here stands my lovely Brompton bicycle. Even in semi-darkness, she looks gorgeous and seductive.



The wall of LV at Suria KLL is black and white. I sat patiently waiting for someone to come and pass by so that I could take a photo. I got more than I asked for. In less than 15 minutes, a lady wearing black and white striped blouse walked by and stopped to peek at the jewellery on exhibition. Voila!

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...

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. 📷
