This Salmon sashimi entree created by Jeannie was absolutely yummy and it tasted as good as it looked. This was one of the many dishes prepared at the Liew residence on the summer solstice celebration when we were in KL.  Thanks guys for having us over, unfortunately I didn’t take pics of the spare ribs but it was yummy too.

Hope you like this food image Matt

Take 2. After reviewing the image I have decided to rework it, fortunately I took 2 images exposing at different levels. This time I did an exposure blending to bring the detail of the rock back into the picture. Thank goodness for photoshop

Finally am having the opportunity to visit past images taken during my recent holiday in KL hopefully I will be able to upload more photos over the next couple of weeks.

These are a small sample of the photos taken during the Perth Wedding. The weather on the day of the wedding was excellent for a summer’s day especially since the lead up to the wedding day was a yo-yo. Just 4 days to the wedding had the weather forecast just under 40s, then thunderstorms were predicted. There is a shot here that shows the ominous clouds blowing in take heavens we missed the rain

Ladies and Gentlemen it has been a while. Soo much so that someone said my account would have been disabled due to the inactivity. This blog shows that I have been active just not blogging.

As the blog heading states lets welcome Bonnie and Seng. This is 1 of 2 installments to the wedding, the images here are taken in Hong Kong.

Took this picture today of a Bride and Groom (who I have not a single clue who they are) crossing a very busy road. This shot was taken in close proximity to the Price Edward MTR station. There is a shopping mall in this district or should I say a wedding mall that sells everything related to weddings, something like an IT mall but caters to weddings. I guess the probability of snapping a happy couple would be quite high in this district

This shot was taken just before having dinner at Brickfields in KL. While driving to our destination, we chanced upon an Indian festival (could be a shin dig for all I know ) and I managed to build up the courage to take some photos. I have always shy’d away from taking photos of people, but this time I was determined to take some. This is a shot of an Indian man from what I can gather was washing away evil spirits by scooping the warm air caused by the fire and running it along his arms. Hopefully I described it properly well it certainly is not to keep warm in the KL???

This shot was taken with my ISO bumped to maximum 1600 at f2.8 even though 1600 on a 350D is absolutely useless I had to take the chance.

Ipoh the capital city of Perak State, just one of the 13 states in Malaysia and what is Ipoh famous for??? Food!!!! Here are 2 pictures taken on our return to KL from Cameron Highlands. The first, Satay, is a personal favourite! At just RM0.60 a stick, they are covered in peanut sauce, and followed by pieces of cucumber. Popiah, the other treat, could be described similar to a vietnamese spring roll. The contents are turnip, shrimp, crispy shallots, and cucumber, rolled in a rice flour pancake and topped with chilli sauce. This is served cold, however the turnip and crispy shallots are cooked.

Calories = Who cares!!! Its new years!

The size of the hibiscus flowers grown in Cameron Highlands in Malaysia are big…!!! Unfortunately this shot doesn’t show the proportions but I really like the composition of it and the strong stamen it so proudly exhibits.

These cherry tomatoes were harvested from our garden bed this morning, not a bad harvest especially since we didn’t plant it in the first place. The plant was starting to take over the whole garden bed and external intervention had to be taken in order to control it before it took over everything, killing everything in its path.
