    The Photographers at Work | We are Visual Storyteller

    © 2011 Wazari Wazir | Photographers at Work | Maiga Island | Sabah | Malaysia North Borneo Each and everyone of us have a different point of view, each and everyone of us have a different story to tell. We really have fun during our photography outing in Semporna Sabah, we just wanted to have fun here without any particular task. Photographers are really a visual storyteller, they tell their story through the photograph captured and within their camera frame is the story that will be told. Yes the background of this photograph is a little bit messy but I hope you get the story and nothing else matters. Tweet…

    Once Upon a Time in Semporna Sabah | Life By The Sea

    © 2011 Wazari Wazir | Semporna | Life By The Sea Depending to whom you ask for, Semporna is a gateway to paradise, gateway to beautiful island of Sabah especially to Sipadan Island which is considered among the top dive site in the world, but there is more in Semporna than Sipadan Island, there is Mataking, Kapalai and Mabul, just to name a few that are famous with divers.

    Travel Photography | It’s Not About The Camera

    © 2008 Wazari Wazir | Mabul Island | Sabah | Malaysia North Borneo I think this behind the scene picture tells more story than the close up picture of the subject, I mean the end result. Here you can see how the photographer interact with the subject and you can see also the person reaction when he is being photograph with his daughter.

    Travel Photography | Human Touch

    © 2008 Wazari Wazir | Mabul Island | Sabah | Malaysia North Borneo I’m taking a break from posting my son picture here, just to make my blog a little bit interesting. This entry is about travel photography, from my point of view. I’m not an expert on this field because I’m not a travel photographer by profession, even though I wish I were but nevertheless as a photographer I do travel a lot but this photograph above which I took in 2008 is not part of my official assignment. This is personal photographic outing with my friends in Mabul Island of Sabah. Let me get straight without wasting too…
