Photo Aventure in Terengganu ~ by Nikon School

Admitting a bit doubtful when signing up the package to my first ever photography trip, but this is definitely worth it, for the experience and side of Terengganu that I have never been to or merely pass-by.

Welcome to Terengganu! This is the latest icon for the state, the Crystal Mosque by the river. 


I was honored to be able to get a hands-on lesson from Karen to perform a long-exposure shot.

Leisure times and great times with our little group of participants and instructors. Thanks to Nikon staff, we get to try out several lenses that they brought.. you call this "Poisoning Session"! XD

Fun with Fish eye lens - you get everyone in including someone out of the scene :P

Found this initial under-exposed shot quite interesting actually!

All in all, no regrets for this trip. Although the amount to fork out was something of consideration, but I believe it was one good session with few participants yet so many instructors. It was a pity for not having participants from across the border. 
As a first photo trip organized by Nikon School, some few areas of communication was not proper (due to certain issues), however the accommodation was well taken care of, and not to forget the highlights of the trip was indeed impressing. 
First steps will lead to more distance... I am already looking forward to a next one :)

Yours Truly,
