Photographs of the Unique and the Usual

Reflections on water ripples

Who knew that a smartphone’s camera is capable of such snapshots. Though it was a beautiful site to begin with.

Had-Dingli in Malta is one of my favourite places. To me, it's where land and sea meet the sun and sky.

A beautiful Spring Sunset in Malta. I just love the view from Gharghur.

Had a great day at the pool. Here are some Water Ripples...

This photo was taken in Valletta at the Fireworks Festival 2012. On a tripod, the shutter speed was set to 'bulb'.

I'm feeling a bit patriotic today... A photo taken recently (2 days ago), well after the new busses took over.

Speaking about Malta... I never get bored of walking around and just finding stuff that amazes me (even after 20 years living here). Even the graffiti are nice to look at.

I feel like showing of the beauty of the architecture in my home country... Malta

I also started messing around with colours and selections... A bit childish in my opinion. But Fun !

This photo is actually one of my first portraits. I took this photo while I was in the passenger seat of a moving car. I knew what I wanted the photo to look like, so I turned down the ISO, set the shutter to 1/640, and set the exposure compensation to -5 (In Shutter Priority).

I just love this one. The cat seems as if it is looking directly into the viewer's eyes. This was shot is Sliema, Malta.

Sometimes the simplest photos are the ones that I like the most. In this, I tried to capture the repeating patterns of the railing in green, contrasting on the blue of the sea.

After a while, it came to me. Art should not be constricted by set techniques, but the techniques should help the artist achieve what he has envisioned. This is a photo of a snake skin. Hope you like it.

I uploaded a portait photograph a few minutes ago, and decided that I should upload one that I have actually taken recently. One may notice that my style has changed in various parts, but obviously, I still have to work harder to get a final photo that is worthy to be called 'Art'.

This is the beautiful beach of Gnejna in Malta. I'm in love with this place. I started to learn that composition is as important as exposure, colours, detail etc. I composed the image so that the two quays at the bottom left corner guide the viewer's eyes to the centre of the landscape. I like the way the Blue and Green colours of the sea came out.
