The Saloma Link is a 68m long pedestrian bridge between Lorong Raja Muda Musa 3 and Lorong Saloma across AKLEH Highway. The bridge architectural concept would resemble “Sirih Junjung” (betel nut leaf arrangement) which reflected the Malay culture. The bridge was designed by Veritas Architects Sdn Bhd, based in Kuala Lumpur and the construction was completed in early 2020. With the completion of the bridge, pedestrians can walk from Kampung Baru to KLCC is about 15 minutes. Getting to Saloma Link is quite easy. Best way to get there with the Rapid KL LRT and get off at Kampung Baru Station. Saloma Link is just next door to the station, on the left. No need to worry about parking. But, if you choose to drive, you can park your car along the road outside of the station (not legal) (GPS: 3.161190, 101.707501), if you can find a spot. Alternatively, you can park at the open carpark behind Menara Public Bank (GPS: 3.160821, 101.709582) from Jalan Ampang and walk across the bridge over Klang River. You can be sure that there will be plenty of people there, so, better be early if you're planning to shoot the sunset there. I had used two setups here. I've used the SONY a7RIV camera and the SEL1635GM as well as SEL1224G lenses for the still shots, while for my timelapse, I used the SONY a9 camera with the SEL1224G.        #FullFrameLife #MySONYLife #sony #sonymalaysia #a7RIV #SEL1635GM #GMaster #SEL1224G #Alpha #AlphaGuru #AlphaUniverseMY #NurIsmailPhotography #madebyluminar #skylum #skylummalaysia #luminar #topazlabs #NiSi #NiSiGlobal #NiSiMalaysia

Name: Blue-eared kingfisher (female) Scientific: Alcedo meninting Malay: Pekaka Bintik-bintik Family: Alcedinidae Hello! I did some photographs of the lovely Blue-eared kingfisher recently. I must say that this is the closest I've been to the bird, about 4m away. All these photographs were shot with SONY a7RIV with the SEL200600G lens and SEL14TC teleconverter.            #FullFrameLife #MySONYLife #sony #sonymalaysia #a7RIV #SEL200600G #SEL14TC #alpha #NurIsmailPhotography #madebyluminar #skylum #skylummalaysia #luminar #topazlabs
Name: Common kingfisher (male) Scientific: Alcedo atthis Malay: Burung Raja Udang / Pekaka Cit-cit Kecil Family: Alcedinidae Today I had the opportunity to photograph the male Common kingfisher for the first time. The bird was shot at 15-20 feet distance around 6:00pm in the evening. Lighting was a little bit dimmed and I had to play around with the ISO, ranging from ISO 400 up to ISO 1600 to get a decent shot. The kingfisher had perched at the same branch for almost 30 minutes with at least 5 times diving into the stream to catch its fish. All the images were captured with my SONY a7RIV and the SEL200600G lens and SEL14TC teleconverter. I had to use the SONY VPR1 Remote Control with Multi-Terminal Cable to get nice sharp images without the camera shake. Thaks for viewing!         The collared kingfisher is a medium-sized kingfisher belonging to the subfamily Halcyoninae, the tree kingfishers. It is also known as the white-collared kingfisher or mangrove kingfisher. It has a wide range extending from the Red Sea across southern Asia to Polynesia. This kingfisher has been listed as Least Concern under the IUCN Red List (ver 3.1, 2016).        Alhamdulillah, today marks another milestone in my photography journey where I was announced by SONY Malaysia as one of their SONY Alpha Guru, together with my buddies Azman Karim Ibrahim, Joon Hao and Haikal.
Thank you SONY Malaysia for making this a reality! Name: Verditer flycatcher Scientific: Eumyias thalassinus Malay: Sambar Ranting Family: Muscicapidae The verditer flycatcher is an Old World flycatcher It is found from the Himalayas through Southeast Asia to Sumatra. This species is named after its distinctive shade of copper-sulphate blue and has a dark patch between the eyes and above the bill base. These images were shot with SONY a7RIV with the SEL200600G lens and SEL14TC teleconverter. Thanks for viewing!     Name: Blue-eared kingfisher Scientific: Alcedo meninting Malay: Pekaka Bintik-bintik Family: Alcedinidae Alcedo meninting or Blue-ear Kingfisher is a small bird that resembles the Common Kingfisher but has a much deeper blue plumage and blue ear coverts. It can be found in lowland forest up to 900 m above sea level. The main habitat requirements for kingfishers are food and nest site availability. They usually perch on branches overhanging densely shaded streams before diving below to capture prey that includes crustaceans, dragonfly larvae and fish. The adult female for Blue-ear Kingfisher is similar to the male but tend to have more rufous orange on the sides of the head and have a red lower mandible. Still, the brilliant iridescent blue line down back to its rump is best seen in flight. This kingfisher is listed as Least Concern under the IUCN Red List (Ver. 3.1, 2016).             Hello everyone! Took advantage of the long weekend to hunt for the Rufous-backed kingfisher (RBKF) at the usual spot in Hulu Langat area, accompanied by 3 friends. The RBKF started to perched between 10:45am until about noon, and I managed to capture most of the shots of this tiny beauty. The Ceyx rufidorsa is a bird species in the Alcedinidae family. It is commonly known as the rufous-backed kingfisher. This species is found in Brunei, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand in tropical lowland forests near lakeshores and streamsides. The rufous-backed kingfisher is a small bird usually in solitary and hunts from a low perch over the water by diving for insects including mantises (Mantodea), grasshoppers (Orthoptera), flies (Diptera), water beetles (Dytiscidae), winged ants (Formicidae) and frogs. It is sometimes considered as a subspecies of the Oriental dwarf kingfisher (Ceyx erithaca). RBKF is my personal favourite, purely because of the vibrant fiery colours, when illuminated by the late morning sun while perching. The following images of this kingfisher ware captured with my SONY a7RIV with the SEL200600G lens and SEL14TC teleconverter. Happy viewing!               #FullFrameLife #MySONYLife #sony #sonymalaysia #a7RIV #SEL200600G #SEL14TC #alpha #NurIsmailPhotography #madebyluminar #skylum #skylummalaysia #luminar #topazlabs
