Snapshots of Cycling


Cycling is getting more popular in Malaysia since a few years ago.Nowadays,there are so many cycling events that give us a lot to choose from and taking part.Personally,I am very choosy to choose what event to get involved.For senior citizens like me,I prefer to ride in my own small group 10 to 20 riders.It is easier to manage and we select our own routes that suit our style of cycling.


Every time we cycle in our group,we stop at beautiful locations and take photos.Taking photo of the sceneries and our own antics of cycling.Photography is a very important component that make us enjoy our cycling in a group.For me who loves photography,cycling is a means to go places to take photos that people seldom see.It is like killing two birds with one stone!






All the photos above were taken when I joined KL Car Free Day Ride last month.What a pleasant suprise when I saw a Morales BMX bike.The original owner is my son Maher.I bought it at White Chapel,London in 1997!





When I lead a ride,I seldom take photos.Most of the photos are taken by friends.A few of them are great photographers.The above three photos were taken by me except the photos below.

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. 📷
