Olympus OM-D, ISO 640, f3.5, 1/40 sec.
In cinematography, the ‘Magic Hour’ refers to the time when the the sky is glowing luminously just after sunset. It is less than 30 minutes, usually. The Dong Zen Temple in Jenjarom is decked up with lanterns and glittering lights for its annual Lanterns & Floral Fest. The landmark is transformed into a magical wonderland for the Lunar New Year. Watch the video below. Happy Chinese Year New Year!

It was a great sunny morning, blue skies and everything nice. The famous Olympus colours were already overflowing when out of nowhere came this pink man on hooks 🙂
This pic concludes my special 6-part coverage of this year’s Thaipusam Festival at Batu Caves. See also video of the chariot and kavadi bearers at my YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/tvsmith
I like how the Tamil transgender (and cross-dressing) community take part in the celebrations without facing discrimination. We can all learn from this inclusive attitude.
This is a still frame capture from OM-D’s HD video footage. I’ll post a video of the festival after editing later. Update: The video is up.
