Doggone Not

The Temuan indigenous people from the Bukit Lanjan Orang Asli Reserve were relocated into modern bungalows as their jungle homes made way for development of Damansara Perdana.  Consisting 147 bungalows, their little prime enclave of Desa Temuan is like a surreal world of its own. Originally kept as hunting dogs, some of their usually slim pets are now replaced by fatter, fluffier toy breeds.

Broken Windows

A dilapidated but occupied old building in Chinatown KL. Watercolour filter was applied. The tragedy about our old heritage buildings is that they are either left in disrepair or the windows are replaced with mismatched aluminium framed black tinted glass. Sigh.

The Uniform Town

Pekan Sungai Besi is one of few remaining old towns with pre-war shophouses left in the city. Due to its proximity to a big army camp, it has become a sort of a uniform town. There are many shops selling military fatigues, RELA vests and school uniforms.

In a traffic jam, I caught these two cute kids coming out of a uniform shop. When you anticipate a drive-by shot, switch the camera to speed priority and set a minimum of 1/400 sec. This will minimise blur from car and subject movement.
