"Glory to Thee, of knowledge We have none, save what Thou Hast taught us: In truth it is Thou Who art perfect in knowledge and wisdom." [Qur'an 02:32]
All praise be to God for the opportunities and rezk' that He has blessed me thus far. Alhamdulillah, a naive attempt at my first maiden Photo Competition gave me a huge surprise when Jessicca from VivoCity called me earlier today to notify me that my shot clinched 2nd Prize in the Amateur Category. All results will be notified to The New Paper this Friday, 6 Nov 2009.
I dedicate this 'prize' to my loving and ever-supportive spouse and my son who have always been my source of INSPIRATION. Not forgetting all my Teachers and Photo Enthusiast Friends who in one way or another have aided me in my Photography Journey.
Special mention to my 'Sifu' Kliqueimages Amir Hamzah and Chegu Thamrin. Also to Kaveman Academy who have given me much exposure and FUN times! Thank you, one and ALL.
