Update: Firework Show at Karnival WOW! Putrajaya

Salam and hello everyone. This is just another quick update for Karnival WOW! Putrajaya that is going to start tomorrow at Tapak Pasar Tani, Presint 2, Putrajaya. According to myJazmanie, visitors will have firework show tomorrow at Putrajaya in conjunction with this carnival and if you want to shoot firework, this is the right time for you to practice your photography skills. Get ready with your gears, tripod, full charged battery etc. Hehe

I’m not sure where is the location for this firework show. It is unlikely it will be shot at PICC like MIFC last year because the location of the carnival is too far from PICC. I’ll update it later, maybe via my Twitter. So, follow me at Twitter for latest update. The firework show is expected to start after the concert, so it would be around 11pm onwards.

Some quote from myJazmanie regarding this update.

Assalamualaikum dan Salam Sejahtera YBhg. Tan Sri/Datuk/Tuan/Puan yang dihormati,
WOW!!! Sukacita dimaklumkan bahawa Putrajaya akan bermandi dengan limpahan bunga api sempena Karnival Wow! Putrajaya. Jangan lepaskan peluang untuk menyaksikan pertunjukan bunga api selepas Konsert Wow! Putrajaya pada 20 Februari 2010. Datanglah beramai-ramai dan pastikan anda mendapat tempat yang strategik dengan datang awal ke tapak Karnival.
Disamping itu, penyertaan bagi Mini Cycle Hunt dan Wayang Putrajaya masih dibuka kepada orang ramai. Hadiah menarik disediakan. Disertakan poster yang berkenaan untuk rujukan.
WOW!!! Rugi kalau tak datang……

So, if you don’t have anything in plan to do tomorrow, come to Putrajaya and have fun!

Night of 1st Syawal

Hoho, as always like previous year, me, my cousins and other relatives had some mini BBQ at my Che Ngah’s house. We started to bake the BBQ after Isya’ about 9.00pm, and easier to us, Abang Long had started the fire so we all just have to bake the chickens. Here are some pictures that have been taken from that night. There are more, but I forgot to ask my cousin for the pictures. These photos are taken by my cousin’s SE C902 phone. His new phone actually. Hahaha Enjoy the pictures then.

Malaysia International Firework Competition (MIFC) 2008 at PICC Putrajaya – Grand Finale

Salam and hello everyone. Last Friday I went to Putrajaya again to enjoy this spectacular firework show, MIFC 2008. And as you know, the last Friday is the Grand Finale of Malaysia International Firework Competition 2008 and the firework show was performed by last year MIFC 2007 winner, Australia team. But it was really tiring. Since last Friday is the day I need to move into the new house and then after moved all my things, I rushed to Putrajaya around 8.40pm. I thought that it would be massive traffic congestion, yes it was; but lucky me, I avoid it by using “jalan belakang”. Hohoho..

So, I used the way to Presint 7 and then took the way to Presint 3 then parked my car at Presint 4, near the Seri Saujana bridge. I reached there about 9.15pm. Then, to find a spot for shooting, I walked about 1 km plus. hohoho.. damn tiring! Fortunately, I found a spot. Get all my gear prepared then wait for the show. *Rest for a while*

The show started at 9.55pm, ok I don’t want to talk more. Enjoy the pictures.

*Dial-up users, sorry ya.. this post contains lot of pictures, so be patient ya.

Malaysia International Firework Competition (MIFC) 2008 at PICC Putrajaya – Team China

Salam and hello to all. Last night was the firework show night for China team, and I was there to enjoy this impressive and spectacular firework show which was held at Putrajaya. The firework was shot at Putrajaya International Convention Center (PICC) and fortunately I got a quiet great spot for taking the shot of the firework. Don’t talk about the traffic, you must prepared for any matters that would happen. Avoid using Bulatan Putrajaya if you don’t want to get into traffic jam, otherwise you enter Putrajaya earlier, maybe before 8pm and after 8, I suggest you to use other path to PICC.

One thing that I noticed about this year MIFC is, the duration for the firework show. As if I’m not mistaken, for last year MIFC, the firework shots about 15 minutes only and 30 minutes for grand finale. But, for this year, like last night, the firework was shots about 30 minutes. Lols… And what would be for grand finale? 1 hour??! *Curious*- and this assumptions will be wrong if my information about last year MIFC is wrong. haha

Here I want to share some part of successful captured photos of last night firework show. Hoho.. this is my first time photograph the firework, still need to learn more. I’ve taken about 200 shots and only a portion of it I can say ok, and the rest…huhuhu.. tak menjadi. What I can conclude, its not easy to capture the firework, you need a lot of patience. So, enjoy the photos. I’ve reduced the quality of photos a bit to decrease the file size. For high quality photos, I’ll upload it to my photoblog later. So, feel free to drop your comment, ok? I’m still newbie, so please show me and guide me to improve my photography.
