Pearly Towers

The Petronas Twin Towers glisten in the sunset just now. I changed the camera’s white balance to the tungsten preset for a cool, bluish moonlight hue. To better expose the pearl-like highlights, I used spot-metering on the shiny parts.

Ho Ho Uh Oh

Not an easy take-off for the reindeer at the courtyard of the world’s tallest twin towers. The Christmas decor at Suria KLCC Mall under the Petronas Twin Towers makes interesting fodder for the Body Cap Lens. Merry Christmas!

10 Seconds, 1 Shot

While waiting at the lights earlier, I couldn’t resist rolling down the window for a quick shot of the Petronas Twin Towers. Although there was rain, there was still lingering blue at 7:41 pm.

The Panasonic Lumix LX-5 pocket cam is no slouch in low light, of course. It has a f2 lens and can start up to shoot almost immediately. To stabilise the camera, I nudged it against the upper window sill.
