Alor Star traffic Photo

Photographer’s Note

The possibly nicest place for traffic pictures with a perfect backdrop is in Alor Star certainly the well known Zahir mosque with the backdrop on the right of the TM tower.

This main road is always busy and the light is good. The compact car in the foreground is the Perodua Myvi, a so called national car, produced by Toyota group owned Perodua. Since 2006 this 1.0-L or 1.3-L compact car is the best selling car in Malaysia. In other markets the almost same model is batched Toyota Passo and in others Daihatsu Boon. The next generation of the little passenger car is due next year.

It is a very nice shot. I particularly like the road pattern. It is very unusual but yet beautiful and very pleasant to the eye. The picture itself seems to have a general blue cast. What do you think?

Hi Urs,So much to observe in this bright and colourful image. The patterns on the road surface stand out have not seen this on a main road, maybe its besause it passes the mosque.White cars always look good in the sunshine,would not be the same on a grey winters day in london. Thanks Tom.
