Jonker street[1]

So I was in Melaka last weekend for my company's team building thingy, after which we were free to roam the streets of melacca. There was some hand holding and raft building, but thankfully no songs :P

We went to Jonker Street at night, where I took this photo of this old man nodding off in front of his paintings. There were actually two shots: one with flash and the other without; and this is obviously the one without. I like this one more cuz the fluoroscent lights give him more focus, unlike this pic over here.

Been experimenting with Photoshop CS2 following instructions from this site, using a couple of my old photos... Nothing complex, really. Tell me what you think?

Timeout

Just realised that I've not posted this picture yet. It was taken a couple months back at Plaza Damas or whatever it's called, where they were trying to have a Sunday market... Keyword here is "trying". I think people got fed up and stopped because I was there again two weeks ago and it was no more... Or maybe it could've been due to puasa month.

Fun fairs are the best place to experiment with long exposure shots, mainly cuz everything has such bright colorful lights on it. This one reminds me of the witch's house in Hansen and Gretel :P

I took this shot of the spinning machine full of lights (god knows what it's called) through the fence. I didn't think much of this shot back then, but now I think the triangular bars gives it a weird sci-fi feel. What's your take?

Managed to get the timing right for this long exposure shot for the ferris wheel to turn. It's quite annoying since it only moved 20 seconds every 5 minutes because the workers were busy drying up every carriage.

KLIA.. I believe the boarding lounge is behind that glass wall. Brilliant architecture =)
