Lingering Sunset

Past 7:30 pm, the beach at Bagan Lalang looked very dark to the naked eye. It was so dark, I didn’t even realise there were still beachcombers around. The camera saw the lingering sunset differently with an exposure of 1 second at f 1.4.

Don’t carry a tripod when you are on vacation. Make do with any solid surface you find around you. I parked the camera on some rocks by the seafront embankment. The 2-sec self-timer was used to eliminate camera shake during pressing of shutter release button.

In the background, the chalets of the Golden Palm Tree Resort (Sepang Goldcoast) extend from the coastline into the Straits of Malacca.

Little Stewardesses

Driving through the little town of Ulu Beranang near Broga, I thought I saw several petite stewardesses rushing to the airport. Turned out to be a bunch of elementary school kids dragging their heavy bags home. Unlike their counterparts in the city, there is no doting parent, chauffeur or maid waiting at the gate to carry their burden. Be it urban or rural, isn’t it time we get a tablet into every child’s hand?
