just back from Semporna, Sabah… a beautiful place where I think all photographer will love it ….
thanks our Bintulu friends share this outing with us and my gang to make this happen .. a wonderful trip even not much pictures but a trips with many good and fantastic memories …
we looking for opportunity to shoot the nightscape and sunrise on the island and managed to arrange one on 3rd day of our trip .. we decide to go to a small Island (recommended by the boatman) to have beautiful Milkyway and sunrise shot …. so we have to start leaving from ground 330am … and with small boat (that carry max 6ppl) toward a “small Island” that took us ~1hr ++ to reach … and it is almost TOTAL DARK while we travel … !!!! and it was rain too … it was so scary while we traveling to the island .. … and no one is dare to repeat 2nd trip on next 2 days … … think back .. how could we manage to travel with small boat 1-1.5hr at total darkness … with strong wave !!!!!
