    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Malaysia’s 56th Independence Day Celebration at Independence Square Kuala Lumpur This is some of the photographs that I managed to captured during  our National Day celebrations marking the 56th anniversary of the country’s independence at Independence Square in Kuala Lumpur August 31st 2013. Unlike previous year (2012), this year I was assigned to cover the event from a static position in front of the main stage where the VVIP were seated. I was equipped with only one camera body which is Nikon D3 with 24-120 mm and 70-200 mm lens, actually the 70-200mm lens were not really suitable from this position but that’s all I’ve because…
