Streets of Georgetown Photo

Photographer’s Note

Georgetown is a photographic marvel. Historical and colonial buildings are blending in with Chinese architecture. This a typical street scene in Georgetown: colourful and lively.

This is the second photo in my photo series about Penang & Georgetown.

I love the signs and street life. Not as many signs and not as much chaos as Seoul but still a great urban shot.

Hi Tai. A vivid street scene with a good perspective and lots of details to be spotted. Good treatment of the exposure, and nice colors in this interesting photo that also makes me learn something: it seems the stop signs in Malaysia read berhenti ;-)

It does seem like a chaotic mix here. All the street signs, the traffic, the people all add a very lively feel to the shot and shows the chaos of city scenes. But it's well organized by your point of view, the lines of the street and even how the traffic and pedestrians are situated at the moment. The depth of field really captures it all nicely. And it's nice to see the universal stop sign. Even if it says Berhenti we all know it's a stop sign.

Hi Tai

Hi Tai,
Very nice busy urban shot. I like all the movement of people. I think that since the focus is the group of people and signs, the very top of the photo doesnt add much so I would crop from right above the left most yellow sign.
Cheers
Daniel
