Jumper Spider at Tmn Rama2 Melaka

Saya rasa dah ok dah gambar nie.
Good subject for macro tu.. Sharpness and DOF are there already. Composition pun OK.
Cuma subject macam gelap sikit, esp pada bahagian muka/mata dia tu.
Shot macam nie kalau spider tu mengadap camera.. atau orang kata ada eye contact sure lagi best, dan ada catch light dalam mata2 dia yang banyak tu..

Boy Fishing at Muara Sg Duyung, Melaka

Budak fishing kat Muara sg duyung. eh btul ke lokasi dia ? Padang Temu kot, dimana kita ditemukan dgn Photographer Private Investigator

Cantik.. cuma saya rasa lagi baik kalau crop sedikit bahagian atas yang hitam tu..

Skull Ring at Jonker Street, Melaka

Skull Ring kat Jonker Street. Tak bli tengok je !

Kalau orang tengok gambar nie sure kata.. “cantik bokeh dia..”
Memang cantik pon. Tapi pada pendapat saya angle nie low sangat dan dan baris2 cincin tu just tegak verticle atas ke bawah.
Cuba angle atas sikit, close lagi pada satu cincin je.. dan baris2 cincin tu buat diagonal..

A Famosa (Malay: Kota A Famosa), or "The Famous" in Portuguese, is a fortress located in Malacca, Malaysia. It is among the oldest surviving European architectural remains in Asia. The Porta de Santiago, a small gatehouse, is the only remaining part of the fortress still standing.
