i like the 2nd last pic.. the cropped one. i've never shot butterflies before and i've heard from everyone that it's hard. i'll try it some time if there are any butterflies around

u point at it..compose nicely, finger ready to down with the shutter...it fly away..

or

u aim at it...it fly away....this is better, no need waste time for composition

i feel so tired shooting them, LOL!

you went to KL butterfyl farm to shoot. I went to Cameron Butterfly garden to shoot.

but never go to Penang Butterfly farm to shoot. Are the butterflies much better looking over there.

haha, i did went to Penang butterfly farm, tat was last year already. KL or Penang, I prefer Penang, feel tat Penang butterfly more friendly, will come to u instead u go for them

i like these two, keep it up man!

Penang War Museum

Brief histrory from http://www.virtualmalaysia.com/destination...r%20museum.html



Yesterday past by this place, so went for a look since so many of them said this place is scary, spooky, go in a 12pm also feel the cold....but now im going at 4.30pm, see how scary is it.

From the entrance by the road side, it's still need to drive up quite a while to reach the base, when I step out from the car, and reach the ticket counter, I got the feeling like "Am I in a right place, shud I go in?" Well, already there, so just pay RM15 and go in to have a look.



At the entrance of the first tunnel, I saw a guy coming out from it...so I was like now I need to be alone in the tunnel?! Walk slowly...with the feeling hope still got people inside there. But NO! No one was there, except me! damn!


Inside the tunnel is cold, no aircond, no fan, the ventilation is by the air duct and air tunnel built by the British when they built this place. Got a lot of thing to see in the tunnel, but I just cant concentrate, take a brief look and get out from there ASAP!

Then come to here


Take a walk and reach the top, I see this



Cannon firing bay, where a super huge cannon placed, but now the cannon is gone...


Destroy by bomb, and some bullet hole...



Another cannon firing bay

The canon used to aim at the Melaka straight, to protect the island from enemy attack from the sea.

A lot of wall with this kind of condition, destroy by bullet or bomb


Saw this hanging at the Open Theater


And come to the torture chamber which is also before that used as generation room by British to power up the whole base.

British sleeping quarter but now decorate like this


Main transport used by the jap


one of the kitchen


Sikh/Indian sleeping quarter



and right after i read the article..i peep inside the room...i scared by a life size DOLL!! Damn f***ing stupid doll with the hair cover the face facing the window!!!! Nearly faint! And right after that, I totally lost the mood and feel freaky, just want faster finish the whole thing and get out from that place! And Because I'm too scare, I forgot to take picture of that doll

Another transport used to transfer goods


Another sleeping quarter


Kitchen used by sikh to prepare their food



I didn't take picture of the Malay sleeping quarter, because inside there have tomb all over the place. There are some bones that found by the museum people, they make a tomb for them and pray for them.

One of the Malay sleeping quarter got a huge keris which I didn't take picture of it also, as inside there also got some tomb, thought want to respect the death, so didn't take any picture also.

After I finish the whole thing I still feel scary because of the doll....but still talk with the museum person to know more about that place and ask question to what I have seen and not sure about what it is...

He told me that place got ghost, during night they can see it, they can hear it, it appear in the picture taken by the visitor during night. And not forget to mention, they will organize a night trip for you, if you can find a group of at least 20 person.

Other extra trip that you need to pay is 100ft tunnel x'plore & submarine bay, which he said got huge amount of gold and money inside there, well preserve!

This place is not just a museum, it also have paint ball base, you can play paint ball in the jungle, which is quite fun as I see.

A nice place that worth to visit, a lot of picture to see, a lot of thing that you'll learn outside the history book. Beside learning, you will have the feeling of what had happen during that time.

It freak me out, but I still want to visit it for the second time but at least with a companion. Next visit, I want to try go in to a dark tunnel which is used as escape place.

ps: my advise, when visit the place, please mind your language, respect the spirit around the place

freaky la.. nice use of b&w to enhance that feeling.. wanna go again when i go pg?

sure, this time must go in the escape route, which is a narrow tunnel tat u need to go down on ur knee, and it is totally dark

hm, I would actually prefer a hi contrast low saturation than straight B&W for these kind of photos. But it was a great effort nonetheless.
Must arrange a day to go down there and shoot as well, and of course with other kaki's.

Oh man, that's my hometown! But never had the chance to visit and shoot the places there... Busy working in KL. I like the War Museum series. It tells stories...
