In the markets

May 19, 2010 by Michael Valli
Back again with a new image from KL. Had I been given a tiny bit more time to take this shot I would have loved to get the composition a little more level… but I just couldn’t risk her moving so had to ‘shoot from the hip’ on this one. Take my attention to detail out of [...]

Central Market

May 16, 2010 by Michael Valli
This was taken at the central market in KL, around the Chinatown area. It was quite an upmarket one. I loved the raft of colours bursting out of the shops down the dimly lit corridors.

The Wise Painter

May 13, 2010 by Michael Valli
It’s not until sitting here uploading this image have I noticed what this image is…. A photograph of a man, painting a photograph of a man :p Completely unintentional. This artist had some wonderful paintings in his small work space. Much more talented that I.

Stuck in the middle

May 9, 2010 by Michael Valli
I have to be honest… I don’t know why I took this shot. But I do like the outcome.   Traffic in KL is mad and they drive very loosely compared to how I drive… (i.e. never seem to indicate and randomly change lanes etc) so being stuck in the middle was a little nerve [...]

Jalan Petaling

May 8, 2010 by Michael Valli
This image was taken down Jalan Petaling in KL, which is the Chinatown Market area of the city. It’s a busy little street with lots being sold… particularly illegal DVD’s. I think in the walk down that street we had about 5 different guys try to get us into their shop to look at DVD’s. [...]

Shopping Mall

May 6, 2010 by Michael Valli
This is just one of the vast array of shopping malls on offer in Kuala Lumpur. Much the same as many of the other major Asian city (HK, Singapore, Bangkok) KL was full of these things… and they are all twice as big as most things on offer in Australia! As much as I don’t [...]

KL Sidewalk #2

May 4, 2010 by Michael Valli
So again this is around the streets of KL, not far from the previous image from memory. KL is a stark contrast from Singapore which was the final leg of our trip, having much dirtier and run down street pretty much everywhere. This for me adds to the character of a city, and certainly made streets of [...]

KL Sidewalk

May 3, 2010 by Michael Valli
Well this will begin what is sure to be a long series of images from our honeymoon to Malaysia and Singapore. As the title says this was a little side walk in Kuala Lumpur, from memory this was in between the Chinatown and Little India districts of the city. It was a wonderful trip and [...]
