[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was at the main entrance to KLCC in front of Jalan Ampang. It was raining heavily and quite a number of people were stuck around there.

I saw these tourists braving temselves to take a unique shot with the twin towers. I admire their ways of enjoying the trip even on a rainy day.

It would be good for them to catch the towers and the rain in one shot. The only thing they don't catch should be a cold. 8-)

This photo was cropped slightly to focus on the people. ISO 200 and took this handheld. Adjusted brightness and colors.

Any critiques or comments are welcome.
Thanks !

Hi Chai, An interesting and fun shot. It looks that that photographer was a seriously trying to find the best PoV. Nice sharp and clear picture especially with the contrast of some other figures in blurred image. Well done.

Well Chai
They, the tourist, are well serious about this memorable shots that will remind them for years to come about this uniquely multiracial country have offered. And whether its raining cats or dogs, it's a worth risk to have it captured NOW, if not, there will be no SECOND chance.
Sometimes looking at thier "behaviour" of taking snapshots may tingle your funny bone. I would say they are ore daring in taking snapshots in the public compared to us, isn't it.
So, any paln of coming to Penang to witness the annual Chingay festival on the 24th of December?
Drop me a line at 012-4052683.
But be prepare if you are in Penang. Penang are famous for its CRITICAL PROBLEMATIC TERRIBLE trafic congestion during every eve and day of each celebration.
Cheers and Merry Christmas.

Hi Chai,
I had the impression that he was taking a portrait of the other fellow looking down with the misty twin towers as background. Nice catch here and a good feeling of the downpour in KL. Luckily they were prepared with the slippers. Well done!! Have an enjoyable day.

I also like the inclusion of this billboard with an eye outside this place.

PS: was the person sitting on the floor also trying to include the other person standing along with the rain and towers.
