Batu Caving Session

Ah at last, updates from us, something interesting to share with you guys.

Last month, we paid a visit to the Batu Caves Temple in Gombak, together with Feebz's cousin and her bro on a shooting session. This is the pligrimage site where our yearly Thaipusam festival is held for our Hindu brothers and many Hindu visitors worldwide.

The sun was scorching hot and it was a humid noon, but our passion (not me, me not good enough lol) in photography was hotter. Thus we stayed there for quite some time exploring around, looking for interesting stuff to shoot.

The envious feeling kicked in, seeing the rest holding great camera and equipments to shoot/snipe. Hmm, but I'd have great faith in my old trusty Lumix FZ7, and I still believe I can go further and there's more to learn though. It rocks man. :)

Little statues accompanying the Lord. Real fine details, my friend

Wokies, that's all for now. 
Happy Labours' Day and have a nice weekend. 
Ciao.
