One day, in the evening of 7th October 2006, I went to Putrajaya to have a photoshoot. I still remembered that day is the only clear with bright blue sky day throughout the month, as it would be very hazzy (read: haze) on the other days, thanks to our neighbour, Indonesia for their annually forest burning activities.
After I take a short nap, I saw the sky is very blue in the evening and I believe the twilight hour, the magical hour of a day, would be spectacular. So, I decided to go to Putrajaya to capture the magical moment.
I reached Dataran Putra (if not mistaken) at 1730 and begin my shooting until 2000. Below are some of the shot i captured. Enjoy...
E500,14-45mm,18mm,F/8,1/60sec,ISO100
Dataran Putra. The highest flag is Malaysia flag, Jalur Gemilang, surrounded by the flag of states which formed Malaysia. Edited to B/W mode to bring out some historical feeling.
E500,14-45mm,14mm,F/8,1/90sec,ISO100
Putra Mosque. The burj, the gate, the roof and the blue sky. This shot is overexposed at the gate's area while trying some better composition, but i like this shot.

D.I.Y. Fisheye Lens
