[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
As I reached the plateau of the Mount Kinabalu, the instructors were putting their gears to perfection to make sure that they are ready to perform their task. The safety gears for the climbers were also well arranged. The professionally trained instructors has a big responsible for the climbers safety, and confidence.

Partly shown here are safety gears for climbers. The set with yellow helmets (white helmets are for instructor) will be shown in details in my next post.

Happy shooting,
Ramdan.

a lots of details here, mountain, rock surface, instructors and those gears. great clarity and look good under the blue sky. tfs, Ramdan and eager to see the rest of the series

Assalammualaikum Ram,
I don't have to say anything technical about this work. You knew enough then and now, to go it alone the next time. In fact, you know better.

It's educational to shoot from within. It's a lot like a tourist shooting things as he or she moves along. But different from a tourist, you know enough technicals to shoot for others other than for yourself.

A photographer is a lot like a chef. Most of the times, you are cooking pixels for others to enjoy. Beside cooking great tasting dishes, you also need to explore and see new things. Or try coming up with new great tasting dishes.

Happy cooking Ram
Regards
Rabani

Hello Ramdan
The slated surface looks easy but often what looks easy turns out to be the contrary.
The surface of rocks is quite interesting and the placement of the people while looking at the peak makes this a great shot.
Bravo
Dot

Hi Ramdan,

The combination of smooth sky texture and rough, detailed texture of the mountain is amazing. Grey/blue combo shade and sudden burst of colours from your subjects.

TFS.

Alvin

Salam Ramdan,
a great shot of adventure photography. The BG is wonderful with great texture. The natural incline became an excellent diagonal crossing as a photographic element.
I wonder whether you have time to exploit the vegetation up there.
Great shot with great clarity and composition.
Selamat sejahtera Ramdan...into a new genre of photography ....adventure photography.
Well done.

Foozi

Hi Ramdan,
