UFO Landing

The night an Unidentified Flying Object landed. The parents were held spellbound, the frightened young daughter ran away and the teenage son whipped out his phone to video the close encounter. In this day and age, the aliens will be on YouTube faster than they can say “Take Me To Your Leader”.

The original picture was a scene I photographed of a family of beachcombers admiring the sunset. The boy was trying to capture the sun with his mobile phone. I changed the colours, curves and added a soft haze to the surroundings.

A group of cops cautiously explore the giant pixelated space they stumbled into. Is this a scene from a new science fiction movie based on Stargate and Tron? Or were the cops on a lighted disco dance floor of the 80s?

It is actually the concourse area of the new 1 Mont Kiara Mall this afternoon. I was looking at the simple but elegant chequered floor from above when the cops walked in on routine patrol. They added a nice dash of colours and deliberate overexposure yielded the fantasy look.

Incidentally, Olympus Malaysia’s HQ, showroom and well-equipped service centre is located on the office tower above.
