There was a time, many many years ago where every photographer just had to shoot the Wilayah Mosque from this location at Publika during sunrise.  You will not be well known if you do not have this classic view of the mosque in your collection.  Not wanting to be left out, I had also joined the bandwagon.  Trying to be smart (or maybe trying to be different), I had opted to shoot the mosque during twilight instead.  The internet has had enough of sunrise images of this mosque.


However, the season has passed.  Times have changed and photographers move on.  We hardly see any new images of this mosque nowadays.  The location and viewpoint has now become like the Berembang Indah apartments.  Everyone who has a camera has shot from here already.  Lots of images by different photographers, all with the same viewpoint and angle.  I have only made one attempt to shoot this mosque during a clear and calm evening three years back.  I have not been back to this location ever since.


If a scene has been shot to death, I will try to avoid that location at all cost.
