Always expect the unexpected

I was on an assignment last week, taking photographs of a cathedral, when I chanced upon this beautiful bird. A 'cross' that is all natural, and really beautiful.


and the cathedral?
Here it is. Sorry that I cannot showcase the best image - that goes to the cathedral.

Clouds and sky

These photographs are reasons that I normally lug a camera with me where ever I go. Would have missed these photo opportunities if my camera was not on me.

early morning at the church

looks like a ring of rainbow at the side of KLCC twin towers

before a heavy rain, light striking the Telekoms Tower

and what have we here, a silver lining.

Artistic Photo - Iveta

Living in Malaysia, it is really difficult to decide what to post, or rather what can be posted without alerting offending some people. Anyway, I believe these are 'safe' to post.

I wonder how the other photographers fared. Beautiful silhoutte, but rather unfortunate that there are just too many distracting objects in the background. Never mind, will find a better spot for the next shoot, if there is any. Understand Iveta will be in Malaysia again soon.

Was going to write about not using wide angle lens as the hands were huge, being closer to the camera, while the legs were really small, being much further away from the camera. Will leave the image to your imagination!

A totally selfless man

Thought this image will encourage more good deeds.

The temporary barriers set up by the road construction team fell due to the heavy rain and wind. This caused a major traffic congestion that stretched out to about 2km.

This motor cyclist (my hero) stopped his machine by the side of the road, and risking his life and limb, proceeded to push the barriers out of the way. He single-handedly cleared the road and went on his way. While he was helping, many impatient motorist just honked at him. Felt guilty that I did not step out to help. Would you?


Right after I posted this, I read this article, "Do unto others quietly …" in MalaysiaInsider. How touching. I hope I too had touched and helped someone in the past.
