Kuala Lumpur's Changing Skyline - New vs Existing

Kuala Lumpur is developing at a really very fast rate. It can be scary actually. To me this is the latest skyline which I took after the sun sets from my office car park. I should feel proud, but deep in my heart I do feel sadness.

This photo has nothing to do with FMSphotoaday theme. I just want to try taking photos in the evening when opportunity arose. 

New condos fit for the wealthiest or expats only

Condominiums as well as office spaces

Existing skyline which house mainly the Oil Companies

#FMSphotoaday Day 7 - Street

This is the Street I use everyday to go to enter my office parking bay in the morning and to exit the parking bay in the evening. Normally it is congested in the morning and evening. This was taken around 1:00 pm and surprisingly, it is clear of traffic. Wish it is like this at all times.

#FMSphotoaday - The View From Here

For today's theme, I just did a very simple shot from the window of my office. That's where I was standing and even though my view is nothing to shout about, at least I still have part of the greeneris from the park to feast my eyes on. This shot, even though not so sharp and crispy clear, is to show the progressive construction of the temporary car park to house the increasing number of cars that move into the KLCC area. At the time this photo was taken, it was also raining outside.

Welcoming The British Royal Couple at KLCC

This is truly the greatest event of my life - meeting the young British Royalty, Prince William and Princess Catherine at the Kuala lumpur Convention Center (KLCC). They both are such a handsome couple and this is such a great opportunity. I remembered my mother telling me how she met the Queen of England and her consort, Prince Phillip soon after her inaugration, in Singapore. It looks like history repeats itself. Both my mum and I have a great admiraton for these royalties.

Photo catch-up Session

I have been extremely busy at work - struggling to close my reconciliation before end of September and preparing for Audit which is coming in less than 2 weeks from today. When this happens, I will definitely slack in all other areas of my life. Here's a catch-up of daily photos at FMS.

7. Natural: Take a photo of something natural {in colour or else}.

I was really attracted to the colours of these 'curtains'. There was a private function later in the evening at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Center (KLCC) and I took these photo using natural lighting. We were all on our way back to office from lunch.

6. Every day: Take a photo of something from your every day, or something that happens every day.

Praying 5 times a day is an everyday practice for us so whenever I am rushed for time, I seldom conduct the Asar prayers on time. Usually after fetching Zahra' from school, we will stop by this mosque to pray Asar before driving home.

 



5. Bright: Take a photo of something bright. Or someone super smart. Or something just bright!

I was outside my daughter's friend's house to fetch her after school. Rather than wait for me at school, she and another friend decided to walk to their friend's house for a change. The 2 hours wait was well spent getting to know therr friend better. I hope one day to meet this girl's parents. These Bougainvilla truly catch my attention. Such bright colours and I love anything pink-related.

4. In my mailbox/postbox: Take a photo of something out of your mailbox, or inside your mailbox.

My office mail-box is empty today. The good news is I don't have any outstanding bills for the month. Everyday, I pray for all my bills to be paid up and I am totally free. Another news is it just means I am not a regular snail-mailer anymore. I have to find the time and improve on that. I owe my friend Jane a letter. Reminder to myself.
