A short photo outing trip to Perak – Matang

by KH on May.14, 2006, under Photography, Travel

13 of us went to Matang, Perak for a short photography outing. We have visited the Matang Mangrove Frorest Reserve, a Charcoal Factory and a fishing village at Kuala Sepetang. For the first time that i knew there are other tourist attractions other then Maxwell Hill, Zoo Taiping and the Lake Garden.

I didn’t manage to take a lot of shots at the Matang Mangrove Forest Reserve… mainly due to I don’t have any clue to shoot at… I ended up only minimum shots to remains after the final deletion the next day.

My shooting mood turn out better at the second location, maybe there are more things that I can see to photographs them. And again, I found out that I haven’t not seen much of the potentials subjects that can be photographed like the others. It is pretty obvious that there are much to learn and train up my sense of art creation. Some of the shots i decided to keeps.

Some of other shots are available at my other Photo Blog.

The last stop that we went is the Kuala Sepetang, I have no idea that we have to cross the "Straits" to the other side of the fishing village. Being carrying all the camera equipment to take a ride on that tiny sampan freaks me off. Imagine that everyone is standing on the tiny sampan.. with the wave created by other bigger fishing boats that making it swing from left and right like its going to over turns. It was the most exited experience for the whole day. Albert taken a pic of me on the Sampan… but its a bit blur. The clearer version can be find on PhotoMalaysia, Picture C1 by Maniac

Overall, this is a fun outing, especially that after I have taking a short rest from Photography after being frustrated from not able to be creative enough to produce interesting images. Hopes that i am able to relearn photography again to improves on the areas that i am still weak on.
