inside view of the partial spherical geodesic dome of the national science centre at bukit kiara produces different tones of reflected light that passes through the geometric patterns, all the while giving me a dizzy spell by looking up! nauseously taken at noon in january 2010. previous post on the subject here.
the location:
views of putrajaya lake, perdana putra (the prime minister’s office) and the putra mosque taken during noon from the putrajaya botanical gardens in november 2010. yes, the sexist word putra is overused and i share the sentiment among the minorities.
the location:
taking the steps towards federal territory mosque off jalan duta while the adhan was recited by the muezzin to perform the friday prayer. climbing under the hot sun while observing ramadan was making my heart beat faster than usual but it all ended well. august 2011.
the location:
this performance radiates much ado about love, hope and happiness.

these days it is quite rare for me to return to my parents’ home village in kelantan. since most of their kids are in the klang valley, it was them who came to visit us regularly. on those occasions that i did go home, i tried to bring them wherever they wanted to go or eat. this pic was taken facing east while we were waiting for our seafood lunch order at restoran terapung de’ tunas, on the famous lagoon of pantai sri tujuh, also known as the beach of the seven lagoons near tumpat. the food menu was unimportant but the smiles on the old folks happy faces were what mattered the most. june 2011.
the location:
one of the balloons that finally succeeded in taking off at the 1st putrajaya international hot air balloon fiesta in march 2009.
the location:
a 132 kv electric power transmission creates a grid (within the national power grid) against the sky near jalan kuching in kuala lumpur. the pylon and its overhead power lines are an eyesore for landscape photography but once in a while you just have to make do with what you got. pic was taken using the new canon s95 looking towards southeast. august 2011.
the location:
after riding more than 4 km by tackling slopy track, hurting our butts on the hard rented bike seats, resting everytime we reached a hilltop and sweating profusely, we finally arrived at the endpoint more than half an hour later. luckily we were offered with a tranquil and resplendent view of sg. baru dam and its reservoir, complete with fish rearing pontoons for us to take funny steps on while being demonstrated the kind of fishes that they have by the park management staff. bukit cerakah agricultural park, july 2011.
the location:
a used to be virgin forest at colmar tropicale near bukit tinggi was levelled to make way for some rich people to squander their free time. thankfully the cirrus cloud juxtaposed against the blue sky were there to help elevate the depressing look into a dramatic landscape. august 2007.
