I recently made a trip up this hill resort of Cameron Highlands here in Malaysia, spent time just taking photos!
I've never done that before!!! Quite a luxury for me...
So, what's good here? It's cool, cooler than the lowlands of the city ~ so, flowers!
Lots and lots of them! And nature... anything and everything green!
A little bit on Cameron's here and some black & white experiments here
Overall I experimented (read "played") with my semi-new lens (on account of being under-used...) Learnt quite a bit! And that's good 😊
Like see something I liked, shoot!
Thought something might look good, shoot!
Yeahhh.... the luxury of doing whatever I wanted...
Now, you get to see/suffer the "collection"
Lol, some of them
Let me warn you - I took lots!
Brace yourself...
Was lucky to have caught this brightening of day
over some nearby peak
"Hello, day..."
The Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel,
Tanah Rata, Cameron Highlands
Which boasts a large compound (this is just one side of the carpark btw),
and some passionate gardener/s who had been lovingly tending to the grounds here
And, FYI the church recently celebrated its 85th Anniversary!
As we are still under covid-19 restrictions, SOPs have to be adhered to, but no one was around, and somehow the church gate was part-open and the doors were open too!
So why not?!
First up on this glorious morning,
Some morning glory, of course!
Wide-ranging subjects to experiment on too!
Malaysia's national flower, in orange, red, yellow, pink, peach
surrounding the grotto
And they were huge!
(Yeah, I forgot to take a shot with something relative to show off its size - lesson for next time)
So like a rose... but it's a hibiscus!
Why not?!
This time a yellow
Seems to be growing quite healthily
No idea why that came to mind...
Maidenhair fern ~ I always liked them!
And I had to experiment with some switching of focus
Like you see with some shots/videos...
Anthuriums!
Otherwise known as 'Naughty boys'
Errrr, I don't have to explain why, right?
And also known as candle flower!
There was a great variety there...
In other words, I took many shots!
Many....
Windows upon windows...upon...
Even more...
Were just asking to be shot!
Especially together with the shadow
Maybe in the next post
Don't want to bore you... 😊😄
