Documenting Sales Events at Pasar Seni, KL

Last Saturday 24/2/2024, I went to Pasar Seni to visit KL Alternatif Book Festival. About twenty vendors were participating in this small and special book event. I am glad and happy to see more small book players-writers, publishers and bookshops taking part.

During the visit, I met Pak Latip, a prolific author of Islamic history novels. I bought a novel entitled Muhammad Al Fateh. He writes history in the form of stories.

The festival had around twenty vendors, including small book publishers, writers, and bookshops. It was great to see them taking part in this special book event.

We need more small book events like this one. Below are a few photos I took.

Another interesting event took place on the back lane of Pasar Seni next to Klang River. It was abandoned for years. I am glad that now it is full of speciality vendors selling foods, items of clothing etc. It is alive and kicking. We need more space and facilities for our entrepreneurs.

Below are a few photos I took using my Lumix LX5.

SOLITUDE

Solitude at the Water’s Edge At the quiet margins of Putrajaya Wetlands Park, moments of stillness often reveal themselves in the simplest scenes. This photograph captures one such moment — a lone bird standing calmly in the shallow waters of the wetlands, surrounded by patches of emerging green and a mirror-like surface that reflects the sky above. What makes this scene compelling is its sense of solitude. The bird stands alone, yet it does not appear lonely. Instead, it seems completely at ease in its environment. The calm water, lightly textured by ripples, creates a soft canvas where reflections blur the boundary between sky and earth. The bird’s reflection anchors it in the frame, quietly doubling its presence in the landscape. The composition embraces minimalism.
