ONE MONTH WITH IPHONE14PROMAX

MRT Train Commuters

I was very happy using Galaxy Note(3/5/10) for the last decade. My photos are good enough for posting on my Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, not to mention that I used the photos in my first book-The Joy of Cycling in Putrajaya.

Why did I change to iPhone? Looking back 40 years ago, my first personal computer was Apple IIe. My PC is a Mac Pro. In the last two years, I observed Apple has done a lot to make iPhone a great smartphone with a few fantastic camera features. The last straw that broke the came back was the special features in photography, video and AR. According to Mac Fraternity, I had moved to The Dark Side. Now I am returning home to where my heart is..

My genres of interest are street photography, urban photography and landscape photography. I use both Note10Lite and Fujifilm XT20 to shoot photos. But from now, after getting to know iPhone14ProMax for the last month, I will be using more smartphone to shoot street and urban photography. This decision is also associated with my new obsession with doing photowalk. It is more than photography and walking but it extends to my intellectual and spiritual pursuits as well. iPhone14ProMax will fit well with me walking to search for more personal discoveries.

Looking at the above photos I took last week, I am very happy with the phone and looking forward to learning more about its many features that can make me a better photographer.

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...
