Merdeka Celebrations at Bukit Jalil

First Merdeka Celebration outside Dataran

Woke up at 7am, but the Stadium was already full

Held in Stadium at Bukit Jalil

So packed with people, have to shoot in Live mode

All shots was done with swivel monitor held over crowd's heads

Must say the lightings effect was good

Was a short performance lasting 2 hours

These people must have rehearsed very hard

The music was very well coordinated

One trip worth getting up early for

FRIM Wetlands

Spent a day at FRIM Wetlands

Spotted a big red bird, set up tripod and waited for 3 hours

Finally rewarded with these small birds

Night Macro at Kemensah

Spent a night with Olympus group started at 8.30 pm

The place was pitch darkness, the torches call the shots

The group reach the waterfall, i belong to the fallback group

The fallback group did not reach the waterfall

The fallback group was very ambitious in trying harder

Perhaps the fallback group achieved more

The fallback group at the least enjoyed this trip slowly

Slowly but steadily the fallback group saw more than the front group

But of course we missed the waterfalls

This is one trip worth going again

Was a very satisfying catch
