#3 Picture Story : The Veil

-



This is a veil at a mosque that I went to once. For my readers that don't know what a veil does in a mosque, it separates the women section from mens'. It is compulsory to isolate the women and men in one place to avoid fitnah in Islam. 

This is a mosque in Sementa, Klang but I can't remember its name. This mosque is newly built. It has this contemporary design on the outside but a little too simple on the interior design. Probably the committee will think of how to improve the inside appearance so it doesn't look so lame.

On top of all, I was taken by this view you're seeing. I feel serene looking at it. There was no one praying here at that moment except me and the thought of locking this pretty view occurred to me.

#2 Song Moment : Always Almost by Rosie Darling

She is probably the epitome of an angelic voice. Of course I'm no expert in describing nor judging how a great voice should sound like, but at least this is what I think of her voice. That one late afternoon, after performing Solat Asar at my office musolla, I conveniently used my Google Assistant to help me find the song I wanted to hear. At that particular time, it was 8 Letters by Why Don't We.  While my ears were enjoying every bit of the beat, I put my hijab on and secured it with pins wherever necessary. At the end of the song, one of my colleagues entered to perform her obligatory prayer as well.  As she gradually approaching to wearing her praying clothes, I double tapped on the phone screen and clicked the pause button to give her the solitary moment with the Creator. When she finished, we had a brief conversation as she was preparing to dress her head back on with the hijab. She left and I stayed in there for a while.  I reached for my phone again and tapped on the pl

#11 Picture Story - Cloudy but Pretty

  Isn't this stunning? Even my eyes agreed the first time they looked at it. Those rocks and chalets reallyaccentuated this shot. As a matter of fact, they are the culprits of why I wanted to give this a capture. It was cloudy and in fact it rained most of the time I was there, but that didn't take away the gorgeousness. I was actually on a vacation with the big family on my mom's side. We rarely get together and this trip was the first after Covid-19 restrictions in my country. The hotel stay was absolutely not something to be proud of as the hotel condition is quite bad. The maintenance obviously doesn't play much roles there.  I guess not too many people have visited the place and decided to stay, hence not so much money have been flowing which resulted in poor maintenance. Despite not having great preservation, picturesque spots are everywhere and the above shot is among the many. I was actually pretty amazed to realize that albeit beaches are not really my thing. E

#8 Picture Story : Children by the Beach

So this is at Pantai Nelayan, Rompin, Johor. We had a 3D2N stay to attend my girl cousin's wedding on the groom side. Since we are all from Selangor, so of course we needed a place to stay and because Rompin is quite far away from where we live (by us I mean my family and the relatives ) Facing this view is the chalet where we stayed. There are couple of gazebos too by this beach where he had our dinner and barbecue that night, on the same day we arrived. This photo was captured on the second day during midday. We had our breakfast at the gazebo that morning and some karaoke session afterward. Then I saw these kids standing on the swing and my artsy eyes had seen this great photo coming with the beach and the stunning clouds as the background and not leaving it behind, the tree wigs. I knew I had to frame everything in.  As you know candid photos are always the best so I thought it was the right time to lock this view in my phone's lense and boom! there ya go. I can't be ha
