Photography

My little photographer, Vito

" Photography is not about the tools, it's about passion "

Let me talk a bit about photography. Who doesn't like to be photographed or capturing photograph? Surely someone likes one of them or maybe both. I love photography, but I'm not a professional photographer, yet! I'm interested in photography, for me it's really exciting and challenging. Sometimes I make photo editing by using applications on my smartphone or creating something unique when capturing the object.

A lot of people can make such creative works because idea never dies. Sometime I take my cute boy Vito as the model. He's very talented and also he can pose freely and naturally, as much as I can capture the moment and get some great expressions on the photographs. I also capture the object from the things around me and it's really fun indeed.

Whatever the tool is, we can make a good photograph. The most important thing in photography is we should have a passion and keep digging the knowledge of photography and its technique.

I'm also interested in black and white photography, because I can capture the soul of the picture, for me black and white photos sometimes feel so dramatic. I posted some of my photographs on INSTAGRAM @ziasubhan and @zia_bw (black and white gallery).

Teaching Our Children about Ramadan

Alhamdulillah, Allah still gives us the opportunity to meet the holy month of Ramadan 1437 H. When a Muslim reaches mature age, he/she should have fast and other ibadah in Ramadan. As parents, we need to train our kids to fast and give them the meaning of Ramadan which the rewards and benefits are very plentiful. I started to introduce my son about Ramadan when he was about 4 years old.

My Experience Visiting Borobudur

Borobudur temple is one of the premier tourist objects in Indonesia. Several years ago I decided to go to Yogyakarta as a destination for cultural tourism. I had the opportunity to get into Keraton Yogyakarta, it's such a priceless experience. Then I scheduled a visit to Borobudur and Prambanan temples. My experience visiting Borobudur temple was quite exciting. From Yogyakarta I headed to Borobudur in the morning, after breakfast at the hotel. Borobudur is located about 40 km from the city of Yogyakarta or about 100 km from Semarang. Administratively Borobudur including the district of Magelang, Central Java. So many people thought that Borobudur is located in Yogyakarta, it is actually located in Magelang.
