leave a comment

PhotoAsia would be interested to hear from photographers who have stock images covering the following topics:

Hari Raya is the main festival for Muslims in Malaysia, marking the culmination of Ramadhan. For a sample of what we are looking for, take a look at our special Hari Raya Gallery. With Ramadhan just around the corner, we’re looking for the following images:

1. Practising silat – demonstrating moves, group or single person
2. Lifestyle – family celebrating Ramadhan, breaking fast, preparing traditional cakes like ketupat, visiting parents in kampung setting, lighting oil lamps
3. Still life – close-up of oil lamps, ketupat, etc.
4. Entertaining non-Muslim guests, serving traditional cakes/food
