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.

The Straits Of Malacca

A boat jetty in Pasir Panjang serves as an angler’s spot over the Strait of Melaka. In the background is Cape Rachado (Tanjung Tuan). I was waiting to salute the migratory eagles flying in from Pulau Rupat in Indonesia. The raptors fly back to Siberia and other parts of Northern Asia this time of the year. This is their first pit stop in the most amazing and perilous journey home.
