Destination: Malaysia

While I have been shooting pictures for a long time, this is my first attempt to travel with sort of better gear: tripod (thanks to my good friend Felimon who kindly lent his tripod), wireless shutter (new gadget I got that will be put into test) and of course, my Canon 40D with 24-70L lens.

Putra Jaya: The Modern Malaysia

I never expected a place in Malaysia like Putra Jaya. This is a very well-developed city, with very nice landscaping comparable to other beautiful cities in the West. A 30-45 minute drive from KL, where the Malaysia's new government offices are located, I would say that I'm impressed with the development done in the area. Here are the sample pictures I took in Putra Jaya.

Here is one shot that I wish I had a TS lens so I could capture the building architecture a lot better. Will put the TS lens in my Photography "Wish List" for now :-)

Next Stop: Petronas Twin Towers at Night

The weather was not good at that time, a bit foggy up there so you could see sort of smoke coming from the lights of the tower.

Here is an experiment photo, post processed merging 3 shots of different exposures. I must admit that I'm not an expert in getting this very nicely as the result doesn't look really exceptional. I will try again next time.

Another item to be added in my wish list: either a Full Frame camera (5DMarkII) or a 16-35L Lens. I need to have a wider view so the view will not be cut. As my friend Felimon suggested in his previous comment, FF or a wide lens. Hmmm, tough on the pocket hu hu hu!!!!

All photos were taken on April 11, 2009. Thanks to our good friend, Jojo and Marcy, for accomodating us in their house. Pasensiya na sa abala, pare !
