INSIDE THE BRIDGE


This is the only place you can cycle /walk INSIDE a bridge in Putrajaya.It was meant to be the railway station to Putrajuya but due to inadequate railway project funding,the project did not take off.Yesterday,I went to join PakNgah Ishak and his UPM students to learn how to take better photos from experienced and knowledgable PakNgah in the field of journalism.




While inside the bridge,I guided the students to take photos under low light condition.PakNgah Ishak advised that under low light condition,it is better to take photos in black and white.The wet floor surface gave me the chance to show students to get reflections as well.



Another thing that I showed the students on how to use natural lighting to take portrait photos.They love to see their beautiful photos in B&W.The above is my Catch of The Day-B&W Photo of PakNgah Ishak.


From my observations,the students need to learn more on using their cameras.At the same time,they need to go out shooting more so that they improve their skill in using their cameras and acquire the art of taking photos.

PakNgah Ishak had to leave early for another lecture at UPM.I took the students to see the bridge from outside and asked them to take landscape photos of the surrounding and the bridge.

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...
