I have decided to go back to my first love for photo-safaris i.e. to Siem Reap and the historical Angkor Wat complex. The last time I was there was in November 2008 where I spent some great photography time with a group of photographers from Singapore, Indonesia Vietnam and my home country, Malaysia. That [...]
Pak Gulem is a friend of Pak Sara's. They are both from the village of Bedulu, Bali. You have seen a shot of Pak Sara. Here is a shot of Pak Gulem at work taken with the Nikon 24mm/1.4 @ f/1.4 1/640s ISO 200.
Here is another shot I took of the dancers at the Klungkung waterfall. We have seen many subjects taken at this waterfall including pre-wedding shots (in fact I have one of these too – more of that later) but there are very few of Balinese dancers let along of them being splashed with water.

We had the opportunity to witness (and of course, to photograph too) a cock-fighting demonstration at Bedulu village, Bali. Even though it was a tame version of the banned cock-fighting of Bali, it was still an unforgettable experience to those who were witnessing it for the first time. The cockerels were not harmed during [...]
I met Pak Sara during one of my previous Bali photo-safaris. I made an appointment to meet him (and Pak Gulem – more of him later) again at his village because he is really friendly and has no problems posing for us. We were rewarded with some keepers from them. This is one of [...]
What a Bali photo-safari! It was great fun as expected. It was action from the word go. From what I saw from the sample shots taken by the participants I know I will be seeing some great shots from them soon. Personally I think I have some great shots too. I won't be doing [...]
I don't have many from this incredible camera. Thanks to Nikon Malaysia, I was given a loaned unit to give it a spin during one of my Bali photo-safaris. Definitely a different animal, in a good sense, from the Nikon D3. The details you get from this camera is gorgeous!

It has been more than a year since my last trip there and it is a nice feeling knowing that I will be back to one of my favourite photography hunting grounds in a couple of days. A group of like-minded, 'crazy' and fun-loving photographers will be following me this time. Looking at the [...]
Even though I have not posted for a while (busy writing the new editions of my ebooks), there are actually many things happening in the background as far as my photography world is concerned.
First off, I am doing the finishing touches to the new editions of the ebooks. Barring any unforeseen circumstances they [...]
It is time to go back to Bali for photography again! I have already confirmed this photosafari and already many places have been taken up. Please click here for more details if you are keen. I just have a couple of slots left and this being peak tourist [...]
