Gaya Street, Kota Kinabalu outing

Since i was in KK, i went out and roam wit my colleague around the famous street, Gaya Street. we went as early as 7 in the morning cos it was not hot and the place was not that packed yet.

I dropped by the museum but surprisingly, have to pay RM2 so i din went it but instead just roamed the outside area. lastly, dropby Tanjung Aru beach for the biggest drink of my life!

I din do any nigh shoot cos i stayed at Penampang area. it looks more like an industrial area where my office is based. so, going to town is hard w/o car though.

For the rest of the photos, go HERE.

Landscapes & Macro #1

Yesterday, we visited Taman Sahabat for sight-seeing. the place is quite nice except for the fact that the weather is too unbearable for me. and also, we dropped by Boulevard near the 4th Mile (correct me if i’m wrong) to see how this shopping differ to the one in miri. one word…’sucks!’ it took me merely 5mins to circle the whole building.

Anyway, here are the photos from yesterday and enjoy.

the main entrance

seems like all the diplomats are used to nazi’s gesture

the Riverbank Suites

the famous Tua Pek Kong

this is the newly-built D.U.N. (Dewan Undangan Negeri) and that’s where all the taxpayers’ money goes to…

James Brooke used to run this coffee shop before he became the White Rajah

Below are shots where i tried taking traffic trails with low shutter but still need to improve.

And i did tried a few macro shots and here are a few that can make it;

First day in kuching

We started our morning with a little breakfast at this place called ‘Green Hill Corner.’ cheryl ordered her all-time favourite gu mee (mee sapi or beef noodle), while i have kolo mee.

Right after the meal, we went along the Carpenter Street and i’ve just realised there are alot of small guesthouses along the way. and we did stop by the Textile museum right before the India Street. it’s not a typical ‘museum’ that i would go to at first place but then since it was open recently, not wrong to give it a try.

We then stopped by the ‘open air’ market to have some ‘ice kacang’ and ‘rojak’ before moving again to a nearby museum known as ‘The Tun Abdul Razak Hall’. at the same time, there was this Photo Exhibition organised by the Sarawak Photographic Society and sponsored by Canon.

After that, we met up with Gilbert and Pathfinder for a little lunch. it was great meet-up for starting as they are friendly and helpful.

Here a re a few photos to share while at the Tun Abdul Razak Hall;
