Photography Outing: Port Klang

Shall write about what I did at my raya holiday~ took a trip to Klang to visit a friend and to take pictures.... sigh... -_-"


Whew... normally Klang isn't really near from KL, and would require a 30min to 45min drive, and I felt lazy to drive so decided to take a KTM to Klang, because I THOUGHT that KTM was RELIABLE and FAST to travel around like LRT.... who would've thought...

Taking from Mid Valley station, had to wait 40mins for the train to arrive, then they dropped me off at KL Central, so gotta wait another 20mins for the next train to come, then when went inside the train had to wait another 20mins only it started moving... why???

And then... the train moved, slowly.... as in seriously slow!!! You could see a proton saga on the highway cruising by and even overtaking the whole train, THAT slow!!! Then for no particular reason it stops in the middle of nowhere.... sigh, and a 30min drive became a full 2hours standing trip on a darn slow train!!!!

!@#$%^& (destroy KTM)

Urrrrgh.... either way Seheel was waiting at the station in her little black Myvi to bring us around Klang, because the last time I was at Klang, according to her it was at the other corner, so this time she'll bring me to the other different corner~

She planned on taking me to go eat Bak Kut Teh, but the shops were closed... raya holiday... woorrrgh.... then went for Roti Canai, also closed, some famous cafe, also closed... urrrgh...

Well either way we stopped for this yoyo something drink, sort of like 7-11's slurpee but using other stuff, I had longan, they had bubu char char... interesting~ but their fried chicken is... woorrrgh~~~ =]

Sure kicks the bad mood from the KTM out of you~~

Well then we paid a little short visit to Port Klang, just a little small part of it~~
It was seriously darn hot!!
But you can't deny at times like these is where the sky is at it's most beautiful blue glow... surprisingly especially in Malaysia =)
Then spent some time teaching Seheel how to use her 1000D, really feels small in my hands~ but in the hands of a girl I guess it's just nice~ =)

Overall a good camera, but can't seem to find the button to activate the Live View mode for the 1000D~ whew =)
Tried doing this picture because of an inspiration by Olivia~ XD

There weren't many things to see because it's just a long stretch, and you see the ocean, behind's a weird wooden building... so just gotta make best of what we have I guess
Somehow the Japanese Picture Style seems to react kinda awesomly even in landscape photo's.... O.O
And Ahhhh yeah... on the boat you can see marking and drawings, mainly it's by people writing a confession, some even writing out of desperation... shall get to that part soon enough~~

Here we go...
"My name is XXX, 21 this year, average body shape"
Left: Looking for a boyfriend

Right: recently I'm a little lonely, want to look for a lonely guy to ease my boredom, I'm 20 years old... 2009/6/07 8:30pm, meet here"

At times like these when one looks upon this boat and the markings on it... I can only imagine how desperate Klang people might be~ XD

And in another way... mainly they are people in their 20's..... on don't worry I don't do that... yet~ =)


This one.... erm.... picture too small, lazy to enlarge to view~
Zombie Picture Style
Lomo Picture Style
Vivid Picture Style
This one this one this one.... oh ya, 300 picture style~ supposed to give a feel like from the movie 300, not quite sure though~~
Pidgeon, sort of like the only and first pidgeon I've seen in Klang... famous for crows I think...
And over at the other corner of the ship you can see markings of failure in communication and writings =)

Zoom in a little shall we~~??
Beep~ write wrong~~ XD
Beep! Another error~~
Successs~ XD
Ahh... but the sad thing is that you can't get on the ship, they locked the stairs going up, but it's low enough for one to jump over, but I don't wanna get caught in Klang....


Also tried doing a little HDR here since.... it's kinda famous for landscapes so... erm.... okay~~
Another HDR..
This is sort of like HDR, but rather I did another thing called Exposure Fusion... not really sure how much difference that makes, but I guess it gives a fair exposure in both fore and background~~~
Why do you tell me that?? o.o
300 picture Style
Japanese Picture Style... or was it Romantic Picture Style... hmm....

Well after awhile more it was really hot, so we drove off.... whew...
Pumping the new Ron95 fuel, decreases power~~ but she says it's all company gas~~

Oh celebrate!! XD
Then she brought me to the largest...
Biggest Jusco in Klang, the one I went last time was considered the old one...

But once you've gone inside, wah.... looks perfectly and exactly like the one in Cheras!! Building design all exactly the same... saving cost for an architect??????

Ahhh well not long later it was time to go home, one of the worse moments for me because I had to ride on the KTM again.... here's how it goes on the way back....

Arrived at the station at 6:08pm
Board shows that train will arrive at 6:16pm
Waited...
SUDDENLY board change saying train will arrive at 6:25pm...
then changed again, 6:34pm...
".................."
AGAIN!!!! 6:45pm!!!!
+Jialat+

Well to cut things short it was a depressing journey back, arrived at Mid Valley at 8:13pm... so it's like a perfect 2hours journey.... sigh wei.... transport system also STILL like this, vision 2020 how???? Now already 2009 going to 2010 d wei.... 11 more years, do something about it la... -_-"

either way I encourage everyone, unless you have high tolleration towards these nonsense, do drive, or take a bus, or maybe a taxi... though you might have to pay a BIT more, I guess it's worth it all because of the amount of time you can save and how much more you could do in life with an extra 1hour???

For me...?? Never ever on KTM... I still love the Putra and Star LRT line... I think they are the only ones that's reasonable to sit including the price too... other than that, I think I'll drive when travelling to such distances.... sigh sigh sigh~~
