  1. Congratulations on the magnificent photography.

    Had many enjoyable visits to Penang to attend the Annual Dragon Boat Races.

    Many thanks for the photographs!

    Thanks a lot! wink.png
    Penang is beautiful, Georgetown also but I liked most Melaka, later I will publish the photos in this regard. smile.png
  2. This was my rented bike, I used to drive some 700 or so Kms around Sabah State, on my Rafflesia hunt! The box fell offfacepalm.gif

    after three days of driving finally .... I found an a few Rafflesias, too large a size to post sad.png But I will say that the Surratthani Province here, (provincial flower) Rafflesia is larger than the saw in Sabah!

    Looks like I have to resize down most my Borneo Malaysia images facepalm.gif

    But here's a few milking cows just to keep things going! tongue.png

    I thank you all because it will be more interesting this thread by posting your photos and your experiences. wai2.gif
    The rafflesia is huge, (I believe it is the largest carnivorous plant in the world) I was lucky to see it blossomed because it is not easy. Here she is in three stages, small, blossomed and died:

  3. I like very much; beautifuls shots;

    which camera do u use blackmarlin ?

    You will not believe but this picture I made with an old Omnia HD (Nokia) that at the time (4-5 years ago) was the best existing smartphone for photography but the characteristics of which today would laugh a holder of any smartphone second choice.
    Then I had a Samsung S3 and now possess a S5. They make great photos but also videos are fantastic!
    I'm an old fan of photography and I had room for the development of black and white when I was a boy.
    Now I find it more practical to work with a smartphone but obviously there are still some limitations compared to professional equipment.
    But you can compensate with the ideas first and then with the use of retouching.
    Anyway thank you very much! wai2.gif
