Hello friends in TE.

The world is in a delicate balance. Normally, by now, I would be spitting nails and throwing Scanners - exploding -head - glances at innocent bystanders who get in my way. But today the sun is shining and all is apparently well. Think calm thoughts. Look at the blue sky and forget that you have not slept properly since Monday, if at all....


Situated in the northwestern corner of Peninsular Malaysia, the state of Kedah covers an area of approximately 9,425 sq. km and with a population of 1.5 million. Kedah, together with the neighboring state of Perlis in the north, is traditionally known as the "Rice Bowl of Malaysia'', being the major producer of rice in the country. A visit to Kedah will reveal a land of serene natural beauty, surrounded by the greenery of padi during the planting season and golden hues at harvest time.

Regards.

Very good use of CPL to bring out the strongest colors of perfect sky. Beautiful landscape in a well composed shot. You now have a ready subject anytime in Kedah.

Salam Jus,
sometimes people would wonder...if Kedah is so photogenic as you have depicted, they would come and stay here forever. it is really a blue sky with such a clean view.
You played well with the perspective, guiding lines, dramatic clouds and trees and palm. All these bring out the beauty of our kampungs. such a beautiful life....
Thanks for your workshop. indeed very useful for me to gain more knowledge.

Regards,
foozi

Thanks,

Hi Jusni
Beautiful shot with brilliant colors and lights. Really, this sky is totally blue. Good POV and framing. Well done, regards, Consuelo

..And what a blue sky it is! Well composed with the curving road leading the eye right into the frame. The trees bordering the road add wonderful interest to the otherwise flat landscape. Well done
Kath

Jusni, c'est une photo qui justifie tout à fait le titre. Le bleu du ciel est de toute beauté. Le paysage en devient superbe.

Abang,
very good pov to stop at the side of the road to have the padi fields captured on both side with a great depth! I sure liked the CPL effect on the colouration on both the land and the sky!
a very pleasing image

Hi Jusni
A very good 2/3 frame of the country side. The road creates a beautiful curve set in a setting of sharp and clear details and an open horizon

Hola Jusni,
Preciosa toma, aunque un poco menos de cielo y más de tiera no hubiera estado mal. Estupenda luz y colores.
Cordialmente
Charo

Hello Jusni,
the fantastic blue and the green really make the compo here with the their strong contrast. The road well placed in the frame lead the eye through the compo to discover the beauty of this view.
Well done!
Thanks for sharing it.
Regards,

Igor

Beautiful shot, Jusni!
the road leads in wonderfully and I really like the way it curves into the shot. The light and color is just awesome and I particularly like the way you've given so much room to that blue, blue, sky. This is a "WOW!" shot! Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

A great work here Jusni, so well taken and composed with brilliant colors and from a perfect POV, compliments!!

have a nice weekend,
Fabio

Jusni,

I love it!.

The use of the deep blue sea sky to dominant the whole picture produce a sense of greatness and complimented the fact that this is a very huge flat land area.

I've been here before, and as always at anytime of the season, this place will never fail to capture ones heart.

Regards,

DA

What I like is the simplicity of the picture, the fantastic blue of the clear sky & the contrast with the green. Well composed with the road from the corner of the frame, leading us right into the picture & curving away. Well done Jusni
