One of the noble work that we have out there, is being a garbage collector. In fact – we always see them as filthy and dirty, but have we ever thought about what if they don’t exist. Can we survive without them? In fact – if you look at the typical Malaysian streets – it’s…

“Out” of the city
During my street shoot on a Sunday – 1st March, I bumped into a person sleeping under a cabana. I don’t think its a homeless person because he did not have any luggage with him. I suspect, it is a drunk person from the night before. I am not sure if you can see the…
Praying@Sin Sze Ya
Another photo from Sin Sze Ya temple. A photo of an old lady praying. At the right time of the day, should be able to get very good light from the skylight on the roof.
Temple
So this morning – I did another street shoot. As usual, if I am around the Central Market area, I will drop by this temple to see if there are anything interesting to shoot. Obviously there is! The photo above shows two person waiting/resting in front of the entrance of the temple.
Flat Keramat: Central Kitchen
The individual unit of the flat is very small. I was told that the units have two configuration – single and double bedroom types. From the outside, it looks pretty small. And from what I recall the last time I visited my friend decades ago, it was really small. The ground floor folks “extended” their…
Flat Keramat
I’ve been to many places in the world but to be honest, I’ve not explored my own backyard. I spent most of my childhood in Keramat, a predominantly Malay area. Today after visiting my mum, I decided to make a stop and visit Flat Keramat. It’s a gem. I should spend more time here to…
Headphone Banging
While walking around – obviously I was on the lookout for photos to shoot. Yes – it’s not as simple as it seems as I am still doing my 50mm challenge throughout February (at least second half). 50mm is a really tough lens because I am so used to shooting using 24 and 28mm. I…
Shine
Never dull your shine for somebody else Tyra Banks While walking around Pasar Karat – thru the back lanes that leads towards Jalan Sultan, I can see a part that was shines by the open roof top (probably plastic). I immediately took out my camera and took this photo. Boom – lucky. But not much…
Pasar Karat – Boss
One of things that I realized about Pasar Karat – some of the vendors are actually quite secretive, and does not want their photos taken. They do take the effort to cover their faces but does not object. When such things happen, I generally will apologize. They will generally be OK after that. Question is…
Sin Sze Si Ya Temple
Sin Sze Si Ya Temple is the oldest Taoist temple in Kuala Lumpur. It is located not far from Central Market. I have visited this temple way too many times and can never get bored of this temple. The location of the temple is as follows: The photo was taken using Leica M10 Monochrom, so…
Gigi Palsu
One of the tips during street shoot is to always get yourself ready. This technique require one to do zone focusing and know your camera (very well!). Since my camera is still very new (not even a month old), zone focusing is something that I am trying to get myself accustom to. The problem is…
