  Photowalks can be beneficial for everyone for several reasons: Physical Exercise: Photowalks encourage walking, which is a low-impact physical activity suitable for most people. It's a great way to get some exercise without needing a gym. Creativity and Mindfulness: Photography fosters creativity and encourages people to observe their surroundings more closely. This mindfulness can reduce stress and enhance mental well-being. Social Interaction: Photowalks often involve groups of people, providing opportunities for social interaction, making new friends, and sharing photography tips and experiences.

Photography started as a hobby in 2008 when I started cycling in Putrajaya. I bought a Lumix LX5 to capture my cycling activities. It became a serious hobby when I got Fujifilm XT1 on 12/3/2014.

From my blogs-Adib Noh Photography and Adib Street Photography, I have written and shared 25 postings-almost once every week. I use these blogs to share my thoughts and experiences in my World of Photography, I am also happy to record that I have attended organised photowalks (two free and three paid) to learn from a few  sifus and fellow photographers. For details, please read my blogs. Nowadays, I am happy that I have three cameras-Fujifilm XT20, Lumix LX5 and iPhone...
