Sunrise @ Weld Quay 2011

Went for another sunrise with my gangs at Weld Quay, Penang. Not the best weather because as you can see the cloud is dark which is a rain cloud. But then it makes this picture more dramatic with multiple colors. I name this picture ‘Modern Africa’ because of the crane container which looks like giraffe in africa. I’ve try to shoot for Panorama but the end result is bad so I remove it from my collection.

Macro–Black Spiky Ants eating

Shot this beautiful Black Spiky Ants. I do not know the ants is eating when I’m shooting, only I knew when I open it at my laptop for post processing. I would have no chance to shoot this ant's because they area actually not a very good models. They move around non stop..lol. At the picture you can see the leaf below is bending, that’s because I use my other finger to bend the leaf and move it closer to my lens to shoot.

Sunset @ Teluk Kumbar 2011

Last weekend, we when for a sunset shot at Teluk Kumbar, Penang. When we were there it was so cloudy and can’t even see any suns shining at all. It is a very dull day, but we were not giving up at all. we still ready our gear n tripod setting up waiting for the moment. Finally at the final moment before the sun’s going down the hill. the suns able to burst through the cloud and giving us the final moment to shoot the sunrise for a mere 1-2 minutes before it’s disappear. Lesson learn, never give up and the weather is unpredictable lol.

Sunrise @ Teluk Tempoyak 2011

Another Sunrise shot from me and now the location is at Teluk Tempoyak just a few km after Queensbay Mall Penang. It is a perfect weather with high tide sea making this picture wonderful. All picture is taken without any ND filter but with only with the Hoya CPL filter. This picture is taken at abit distant which I’m looking for a perfect foreground to fill the frame which I’m satisfy with it.

The beauty of endless calm sea are just wonderful, the endless bridge going to the middle of the sea. This picture is take at a much close to the jetty where people come here for fishing.

Finally the Panorama Shot after the sunrises and ray of light bursting out from the cloud and the right side of the picture show’s the morning is still early. A different feel and colors which makes this panorama picture breathless which will make this as one my BEST 2011 picture. Stiches from 6 shot to get this wonderful picture with a great freeware software from ‘Hugin – Panorama Stiches’. It’s actually done a pretty good job stitching to get this breathless picture without any errors. All picture are shot in Raw and converted into Jpeg before stitches is done. Hey I’m shooting with Kit Lens..lol. Can anybody sponsor me a greater lens so I able to shoot much better quality picture..lol, just kidding. Who says Kit lens is dumb lens..ha..

That’s all for now, hope you guys will like my pictures, there is more in my flickr here. Please do not use my picture without my permission. Send me an email at stevensys@gmail.com for any inquiry. Thanks. Have a nice day. Cheers.
