Of Photography, the Rainfalls...

I have always love the rain, the sound and the smell of rain always made me happy. I believe it all because I was born and grew up on the east coast of Malaya where it often rains. During the Northeast Monsoon it rains cat and dog for three months from November to January every year. The temperature would go down to below twenty degrees Celsius and at time even the Coconut 0il would solidified. Folks would go to work using umbrella or raincoat. Now it January and it rain off and on here in Ampang in the state of Selangor on the west coast where we live now. I would sit at the Serambi/Patio of my house and enjoy the rainfall making it noise outside the house. As usual it nostalgic, it brought back memories of my youth living in Kuantan. Today as I sat there with my two cats, Kenet and Tam I watch and feel and smell the rains. I then took my camera and try to snap an image of the rainfalls. Above is that image that I took of the rainfalls. It not easy to get such image but I am happy that I got it. It does shows the rainfalls. I took that image using my latest Mirrorless camera the Canon EOS M5 using a 2000mm telephoto lens. Enjoy it folks as much as I had enjoyed snapping it.

Have a nice day.

Halwa Maskat...

Sudah lama tidak merasai Halwa Maskat. Sangat sukar untuk dapat dibeli dipasaran pada masa ini. Puas dicari tetapi yang dapat tidaklah sesedap yang dibuat sendiri. Ini kerana bukan senang hendak membuatnya. Pertama hanya boleh dibuat dengan mengunakan Periok atau Belanga Tembaga. Belanga tredisi ini masih dibuat di Terengganu dan boleh dapat dibeli di Pasar Payang di Kuala Terengganu. Mengodel dan mengacawnya tampa berhenti mengambil masa tidak kurang dari tiga jam. Oleh itu hanya dengan menguna Belanga Tembaga yang tebal ini sajalah dapat menjamin juadah tredisi ini betul betul menjadi. Seminggu sudah NekNyang siapkan bahan bahan nya dan pada pagi Sabtu 7.11.20 ini bersama dengan anak dan cucu telah dapat dibuatnya. Alhamdulillah. Memang sedap. Recipe nya adalah turunmenurun dari Ayah saya yang membuat juadah ini sebagai makanan istimewa dihidang dan dijual direstaurannya di Kuantan pada setiap bulan Ramadan. Nasib baiklah isteri saya Asmah pada masa itu berumor dalam leng

The Sunrise at Teluk Cempedak...

We were in Kuantan for a short holiday. As usual I always take the time to watch the sunrise at Teluk Cempedak; a beach that I call my own. I grew up playing on that sandy beach from the age of seven years old and I felt in love with the sea. So going to that beach is a ritual that I never missed to do whenever I am in Kuantan. Early that Saturday morning of September 3, 2016 I woke early and with my nephew driving we left for the beach at around 6.30am. According to the data I had the sun would rise at Teluk Cempedak at 7.01am that morning. When we arrived at the beach there were already others there waiting for the sun to rise. I had brought my latest camera the Canon EOS M10 with me. It is a Mirrorless camera, the new new generation of the DSLR. It is much smaller than the DSLR and have interchangeable lens. As soon as I got there I walk along the beach and enjoy the freshness of the morning air. Yonder at the horizon I could see some light as the the sun makes it
