Unfortunately, images that are often caught on camera tend to be uniform, namely the background of the sea and beach on a clear day.

In addition to diverse tourist destinations, photographers can use light in all conditions to get captured images with different color tones. Landscape photographer Azwar Ipank was the one who captured the other side of Pulau Weh.
Utilizing the newly sunrised sunlight, Ipank, his nickname, managed to capture the colorful hue of light as the background of a series of photos of tourist destinations on Pulau Weh. As a result, the appearance of the photo becomes more exotic.
The thing that amazes, all the photos were taken using a smartphone camera, namely realme 9 Pro +. "I want to make a different photo (than is commonly seen on the internet). Honestly, the most widely publicized destination is Iboih Beach and Limbo Gapang Beach. The photo is everywhere."
Ipank's journey to hunt for photos starts from Goa Sarang. His intention, he wanted to take a photo of the cave that displayed a light background. Unfortunately, there was a large stone covering the light. So, a tinge of light didn't reach the mouth of the cave.
