Photography Outing : Masjid Jamek

Ahhh... Went out on another Photography Outing by myself yesterday to Masjid Jamek

Was supposed to go take pictures with one of my volunteered friend model~ but ended up she was lazy, so we didn't go out... was bored at home, didn't know what to do... and remembered that my uncle told me to go take pictures in Masjid Jamek, he say that that's an interesting area that has lots of stuff to take pictures of... so.... just hop onto the LRT station and took a train to...
I've always came to this area, but just to change to the Putra Line that'll lead towards KLCC, never had the chance to just stop and walk around.... well this time I would want to cover the landmarks of this place, since it's my first time covering this area on foot.... oh well~~

Let's Go!!
KL Tower... it's not really that high if you compare it to a tree XD
This is... a big drain... and opposite that part is the Bazaar
Stupid people!! This is supposily like a walkway for those handicap people to go... and this fella go and park his bike there... if I was stronger I'd carry it and throw it into the drain.... ahh some people ah... can't understand why they do these things wan sometimes...

*mumble mumble*
This is the Bazaar, with lots of things to photograph, the lifestyle and culture here is fantastic, there was one cat just sleeping on the goods, and the owner had to carry it away~ missed that shot!! XD

But it was a little crowded inside, so only took this shot~
Lots of shops, mainly they all sell cloth and tudung~ XD
Blind man and lady, he's playing keyboard, singing and doing some sound system thingy while the lady plays the tamborine... impressive =)
After some time of walking I got lost... and ended up in Jalan Bunus~~
Garden City... the colors change as you go up.... -_-"

After some walking I found out where was I, not too long later got lost again at some weird place... was drawn off attention because of these weird rocks~
They have absolutely no meaning, just lying there at the center for no particular purpose... why?? Donno......
Interesting colors... is it a college/university???
Found out the place was called Cap Square... what in the world does it mean???? HMMM!!! But they have a small shopping complex inside... nothing really interesting because this place is still like.... building in progress...
On the left is all contruction thingy~~
KL tower again~
Yeap... I'm still stuck here...
Yes we meet again~~ but at this time the clouds were starting to form a fake, but weirdly interesting shape... so must take picture~~
Found these graffitti on the board~ I have to say they look really nice =)
I think it's illegal...
But who cares?? They look nice... haha draw more draw more!! XD
We humbly promise to get naked and will will be unraveling soon....

What kinda slogan is that!??!?! 0.0

I hope it wasn't a guy who wrote that...
But yeah... if you wanna find Cap Square, you can find it at this road... actually it's a nice area, kinda new, feels like Bangsar area~~ but wait till it's fully built before coming back =)
Heart Pulse!! The building is dead!!! Yahaha!! XD
Lots of shopping complex... seriously... too much... all of them have odd names, I forgot what this one was called
Hotel Nobel... being such a run down place, hard to tell it's a place where Nobels would stay...
Tudung House!! XD
Flags of different countries~~
Then I got lost again here... big walkway... this area around looks really nice and interesting with the wide walkway~~ but I think it'll look even better at night with all the bright shining lights~~
Then I found out that I arrived at SOGO... hmm... I guess I really am lost...
Blind man selling tissue... but I looked around him and found no walking stick.... hmmm.... suspicious!!
You can find all these weird unique shops at this road~~ =)
They even hang toilet signs on the lampost =)
Great big circle outside the indian theather... wooo....
I went to the back roads to see... interesting...
Wonder why they lock up their gas tanks~~
This is superb!! Mamak in a tight alley!!! But what's scary is.... look above it, the airconds there.. if all fell down at once this mamak ah... wahseh all sure die straight~~

Business of Faith~ XD
All the "Call Me" numbers all over the place... hmmm.... desperate people
I like blue... therefore this building looks magnificent to me =)
Lots of airconds... check out the blue tank~ looks like nitros!! Wonder if they use it for their airconds~ =)
Now this is just weird.... Wonder if that female figure is the plastic bag.... 0.0
Hmmm... where to go next.....
Then I reached back at the station... looks like I took one big half circle around~~

At this time I felt faintly.... and weak, must be cause didn't eat breakfast, then I made a stop and rest for lunch at McDonalds... nothing impressive, crowded as always... rested for around 30mins, and I was off again~~
This time I took the other half~ check out the dusty roads.... but it's not so clear here, but it was really dusty there, all the dust in my eyes... arrgh...
Worn out shops...
This building design attracts me....

There's really lots of interesting buildings for you to photograph if you're visiting here~~
Can be found at this road~ =)
Walk straight, and you would see the continuation of the big drain... nothing to b
Mosque...

Wonder if this is the famous huge mosque that everyone's talking about... doesn't really look THAT big though...
Then you can see lots of people fainted there... or maybe their sleeping...??
Then I saw at the distance.... Big flag!!!
So I aimed to go there next!!!
Wonder what is this... measurements???
Rempits~!! XD
This is the golden building... wonderful~ =)
Woo!! Check out what they wrote at the bottom of this clock tower!!! XD

Unique combination of colors~~
If only I could join their ranks... this pidgeon was just staring at people walking by... a dream perhaps??
Moving on....
More graffitti~
And so the drain separates.... -_-"
Lots more graffitti...
Then I reached this road... which is interesting~~
Check out the amount of drawings~!!!
Wonderful... I like this~ XD
Big building.... no idea what's inside...
Getting near to the flag....
Racing stripes??
When I reached here, I looked down...
Found this on the pipes... wonder if the person jumped into the drain after writing this...???
And I thought writing these sweet things on trees was romantic.... now they go write it on drain pipes.... -.-"
Ahhh yes.... Dataran Merdeka.... wow....


They've got a big field~
KL Hop on Hop off...

A bus that takes you over 40 landmarks that KL is famous for... I think... rm12 for 24hrs if you're a malaysian student~ rejoice!!

Will go on that bus soon... not today, but soon... of course was supposed to go on it today but ended up... ahh well~
MERDEKA!!

This place would certainly look wonderful at night...
Huge plasma TV, with a big library behind...

Yuck... hate libraries....
Malaysia!! Malaysia!! Malaysia!! XD
YES!! I have reached the big flag!! Too bad can't climb up though...
See the tire marks on the road forming a bit circle?? This was the place where they filmed Evolusi KL Drift... and judging by the amount of rings they made with tires... I bet they must've failed alot of times and finally one time success, but the damage has damaged the road too much to even remove it~~

You can see that scene in the movie... I laughed~ XD
lots of tourist were there, but this couple was the most unique, the girl was excited, the guy was stonning~~


Then I found a little found to play around with fast shutter speeds, nothing impressive I know but... I was bored~ XD
Found a pondok, then decided to take a rest...
And also a picture of myself~~

At this point I also realized that I lost my favorite water bottle... @#$%^&

This was actually supposed to be a panoramic picture of a whole lots of graffitti on the wall... but yet again I failed... darn... one day I shall succeed!!!
I'm feeling rather lazy to type now.... whew....
Then I reached Jalan Hang Kasturi... in which if you walk straight you would reach...
Ahhh yes... it's been a long time~ =)
Go thru the alleys and you'll find a little temple~
Bird bird~~
Interesting shop... Chi Chi would like it~
1914 building... much more older than me 0.0
Wah... at the point I realized I am really far off.... cause I reached Petaling Street...
Was tempted to go inside, but heard stories of pickpockets, and now's not a time to be rob... so... another time when I go in a group~~
Made a rest stop at Kota Raya to buy water.... !@#$$%
Living Cabin with a big bear head~~
Shops in an alley~
After some time... oh look at the time!!

It's getting late... time to go back~
Found this hole on the ground... what is this???
And judging by what I'm seeing... the first thing that came to mind was... "Crab Holes" XD

I mean, don't they look like this in the beach???? =]
Ahhh well I reached back safely~~
Did lots of walking today, when reached home legs were hurting like mad that I almost felt like I couldn't walk anymore.... 0.0

But yeah... it was an interesting outing today...
Where's the Escalator??????????

Well though I had a long day... but I did accomplish what I intended to... cover the interesting places, and will come back again to take pictures of the culture, the lifestyle, people.... etc~~

And... I've got myself some interesting shots~~ =P
Old building... but combining it with CLEAR picture style I can turn it into sort of....
Like a photoframe in the sky~~ =)
And this is my favorite bunch~~
Not sure why but the sunlight and the building just clicked together =)
Yeap yeap~~
So yeah... not everything was a wasted, got myself some nice shots~~

Tired, tired tired and still tired now~~ but it was a nice day~~ good job 50D!!

Planning for next outing... rest well till then ~ =)
