[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Spending some street photography time in KL. Bukit Bintang is a party place and the streets are well lit. People gather in this place for shopping, drinks, and just have night fun. It's very much similar with home.

It took me RM1.20 to get to this place via monorail. Walking back to my hotel was more fun.

Oh, I think Sayangi means Love. So the sign means something like "Love our Kuala Lumpur"

The tip of the Petronas tower is caught peeping by the monorail.

Hi Rommel,

I do love KL as well. A perfect place - as is Singapore - for street photography. Maybe I'd prefer Singapore just a bit more, since the older buildings are nicely lit and standing more freely than in KL. Also, it just feels a bit safer in Singapore.
What I like in KL is that it all feels - and is - less organized. For example the metro / monorail! Every line has its own company and own kind of tickets. So funny.

Looking at your photograph it's nice in tones and a pleasant street photograph. But for me it is a real pity you did not take it a slight bit lower in the point of view, since you're cutting off people at the downside (woman in white, guy in red). That's a bit of a pity. But still an interesting shot of an interesting city!

Greetings,
Dennis

Hi Rommel,

It is interesting from your point of view towards my country. I love the wide angle lens you are using.
