Behold, The Artist!


The stunning, natural colours of the setting sun at Sungei Rengit were arresting enough for me to stop my car by the roadside and fire off a couple of quick shots to capture God's artistic handwork. Every sunset is different and this must surely be the most memorable for me. Every minute, the intensity of colours changed as darkness filtered in. I had no more than five or eight minutes to think of composition, evaluative mode, white balance, ISO and other technicalities before shooting. Thank God, I was at the right place at the right time.

Hello Mr Low. Heard that you have retired from teaching.

I hope that you have enjoyed your teaching journey throughly complete with all its ups and downs!

I have recently purchased a Nikon D300 and Tamron 17-50mm F/2.8. I am very interested in wedding photography.

We should meet someday for coffee:)(of course coffee is on me)

All the best:D

D300! Wow, I've stagnated at D200 but that's good enough for me. Hey, do me a favour - which Harrison is this :-D

Btw, I've covered a few weddings but this genre is not for me. Coffee would be great!

This picture is simply stunning. How do you get so lucky all the time? Not fair. :P

It is truly amazing how the Divine Artist masterfully blends the colours to paint such an awesome scene that may be enjoyed from any vantage point.

Well taken, John.
