Tabebuia Rosea * 风铃木

Posted on 17. Mar, 2009 by TY in Landscape/Macro

Woke up early one morning of last week, and together with a few friend, I went to shoot ‘Penang Sakura’. However, it’s real name is “Tabebuia Rosea” * 风铃木” and not the Japanese Sakura. Tabebuia Rosea originally comes from Central America. it has beautiful big flowers, and gives shade, but you’ll never see a bee in the flower!
ok…here are some shots to share.

Yet Another Kek Lok Si Shots

Posted on 22. Jan, 2009 by TY in Landscape/Macro

Every year when u see kek lok si light up….you will know CNY is coming soon. Yesterday evening, i was with a team of photo buddies to hike to a small hillside where we can get the best view of KLS. There were already many other groups of early birds at the location when we arrived, so we had to make do with whatever available space.

As usual, I’m trying something different, and do hope that you’ll be able to accept my vision of the most beautiful temple in Penang. Here are some shots to share & wish you all have a wonderful Chinese New Year….Huat ah !!

Penang Flora Festical 2008

Posted on 03. Dec, 2008 by TY in Landscape/Macro

Penang Floral Festival 2008
Theme: Floral Fantasy
Date: 29th November ~ 7th December
Location: Penang Botanical Gardens

A bit disappointed with this year’s Floral Festival. It was postponed countless times, and when it finally arrived, the display was mediocre to say the least. There were other participation from ministries like MARDI, MPOC, Forestry and also Landscape competition, Lanterns and etc, but this year they were conspicuously missing in action. I suspect it maybe due to the fact that this year, the state government was formed by the opposition parties of the previous government. Maybe this can be called ‘political floral festival’. Really hope we can have better Flora Festival in coming year!

Here are some of my fav shots taken by my old cam “Sony R1“, still performed best loh….
