When I work, I always feel like being watch. It's not that creepy feeling, it's something else that's hard to explain...

KLCC

Petronas Twin Tower, originally uploaded by iskandar63.

It was sunset at KLCC. I was too close to the buildings and it was impossible to shoot the whole building.

I shot this picture using my Leica Digilux 3 with a deep filter fitted to the lense. The film setting was BW Dynamic.

Puteri Iskandar, Day 5

Day 5, baby cried non-stop. Something was very wrong. We rushed to the nearby health centre for a checkup. They referred the baby to the nearby hospital. Turn out the baby was dehydrated. Mom's milk was not enough and the kidney was failing. Due to not enough facility, the baby was rushed by ambulance to another hospital. After rehydrating the baby via IV, today, 1 day later the baby restabilises and the kidneys perform normally. Thank God.

Thatched Roof

Back in the old days (before the electricity, Astro and digital cameras) my uncles house roof was made of thatched leaves from toddy plant. The house was on stilt and made of wood. The house was enerhy and weather efficient. It was cool inside the house even on hot sunny day.

My house was different. It had metal sheets as roof. It was hot as oven during daytime and cold like an icebox at night. When I came back from school, I can't stay home because it was too hot. I would go to my uncle's house, read a chilren's novel and took a nap. It was cooling.

Good ol thatched roof. A cooling invention.
