Milkyway Outing in Kuala Kubu Baharu

Hello everyone! It has been quite a while since I last updated my blog. 

Early this morning, I  had the chance to take a short trip to Kuala Kubu Baharu to shoot the milkyway. The event was hosted by Mr. Grey Chow, a seasoned astrophotographer in Malaysia.


We departed from Kuala Lumpur around 2:45am and we safely arrived at the shooting location around 4:00am.  To my surprise, there were already big crowd there...safe to say more than 100 photographers!  Met the host, Mr. Grey Chow on location.  For astrophotography, the setting that I used is to go for the widest focal length with the widest aperture.  Here, I used 14mm focal length, thanks to the Samyang AF 14mm f2.8 lens on my SONY α7RIII.  I would maintain the shutter speed between 15-25 seconds and pushed the ISO to 3200 or even 6400.  Most of the newer cameras are able to handle such high ISO.  It is also recommended to use a sturdy tripod to prevent the camera shakes. In this case, I've used my sturdy Leofoto LS-284C + Leofoto LH-40 ballhead. Please PM me if you want to purchase this tripod setup.

Tracking the milkyway was easy, thanks to the bright planet Jupiter which sits above the galactic centre.  The bright light on the left foreground came from nearby Kampung Sungai Pertak.  This is the first time shooting the milkyway here in Kuala Kubu Baharu and I will definitely come back to this place for more astrophotogrphy.


This above panorama shot was taken with SONY α7RIII with Samyang 14mm f2.8 lens.  It took four vertical images to create this panorama. Processed in Adobe Photoshop CC 2019.  My second setup was the SONY α7SII with the SONY FE 12-24mm f4 G lens, which I will process soon!  Thanks!

Aerial Photography of Kuala Lumpur

The PETRONAS Twin Towers certainly look great from up above. On Saturday, 9 March 2019, I had a chance flying my dji Mavic 2 Pro near this national landmark. The weather was not that great due to the haze, but certainly the view of the Kuala Lumpur City Centre Precinct is truly breathtaking. Thanks for viewing!
