I find that photography is a lifelong learning experience. I don't yet have any of the fancier lenses or a tripod, so I try to capture the best possible image with what I do have.
I use slow shutter to most of my sunset shoot...:)
Many people are fascinated with the view of sunset. That is why sunset has been one of the most popular photography scenes that we come across. For photographers, every sunset provides an opportunity to capture a unique scene, with different set of clouds or things in foreground. Photographing a sunset view also gives you infinite variations of colours in one evening itself. However, sunset photography can be trickier than what you initially thought.

“General Revelation.” That is, God the Creator, has revealed aspects of His character and nature to all of mankind through His creation. When we look at this sunset, we realize that God is BEAUTIFUL and the source of all beauty!
Today Muslims throughout the world celebrate the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting.
The first day of Syawal is known as Eid-ul-Fitr in some parts of the world and Hari Raya Puasa or Hari Raya Aidil Fitri in Malaysia.
There will be family gatherings and reunions in the days ahead during the month of Syawal.
Those who live and work in cities away from their hometowns often make the effort to return to the places where they were born or lived as children.
But many more such as the Malaysian who work overseas and our fellow soldiers will celebrate the dawn of Syawal alone, away from family and friends.
Let us spare a thought for them and resolve to show compassion for them as we enjoy the company of our loves ones and traditional delicacies specially prepared for the festivities.
SELAMAT HARI RAYA ,AIDIL FITRI.
MA'AF ZAHIR BATIN.
