SEEING THE INVICIBLE



Over time,as I take more photos as an avid photography enthusiast,I began to see more details in the subject matters of my captures.When I take time to ponder at the photos,I began to see more-something beyond the visuals recorded by the cameras.The photo above was taken in the town of Kuala Krai,Kelantan  after the big flood in December,2014. The water level went up to the first floor.In front of the rows of pre-Merdeka shophouses were debris and rotten furnitures damaged by the flood.

As an engineer,I noticed the great work done by the British architects/engineers during the colonial days in building towns and city around the country.The standing buildings are witnesses to their great knowledge and experience in building design and construction.



The photo of the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Putrajaya is obvious. The fun was in the air-the pun was intended.However, there is something quite interesting on the ground.This small girl is too short to see the balloon hidden by adults in front of her.Her mother was very clever.She found a dustbin and got her duaghter on the cover.Now,this little girl could see what other adults in front of her can see.All it took was a little effort.



This lady is from Southern Thailand.Some Malays there are very poor.They come here to sell kerepok and tirbits.I see more people giving them money than buying any goods from them.This is a view that I hate to see.These poor people just need our help.At times,I got angry with myself for doing nothing to help those in need.As I grow older,I see more with my mind and heart than my eyes..
