Kelanang’s Story – The Old Roots
January 29, 2012 In Black & White Seascapes 2 Comments

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone. This is my latest shot which was taken at Pantai Kelanang, Banting. As I was saying in my old post, this place is the real deal for landscape photographers to challenge themselves in composition. This is because the natural surface here is full with mangrove trees which make its difficult to compose a clean shot. The trees will always be in front of the camera. So what are you waiting for? Go there and challenge yourself! 😀

About the shot, it was a long exposure of 90 seconds and I used Lee 10 stops ND filter a.k.a the big stopper to cut out the bright light along with 3 stops ND Grad to balance the sky. Editing are done with Photoshop and Nik Silver Efex Pro 2.

Hope everyone likes it. Enjoy your weekend yeah!

Salam Jumaat for everyone. Another old shot of mine taken at As’Salam mosque on sun rising. As you can see, the colors is so peaceful and harmony. It’s really worth going out so early in the morning to enjoy this beautiful moment.

About the shot itself, this is a single RAW file, shot at ISO 100 | ƒ14 | 30 Secs. I used Hitech .9s ND Grad and Lee 105MM Circular Polarizer to balance the bright sky and also to saturated the colors. I processed the RAW file with Digital Photo Professional and then the file transferred into Photoshop for basic adjustments.

Another shot of Pantai Remis taken yesterday..Almost colorless..

Surely will be back to this spot when the weather is nice..InsyaAllah..
