KLCC Park is a public park right next to KLCC (Kuala Lumpur City Centre). KLCC is also where the Petronas Twin Towers are located.
Went to the park one fine morning and took some pictures. It was a beautiful day with the sun shinning bright. Just the sort of day for taking pictures. It was quite a fruitful day and I find the 1 GB CF card in my camera quickly running out of space.
All pictures are taken using the Fujifilm Finepix S9500. Click on any picture to view a larger version.

Visited the Asian Festival of Speed on 14 May 2006 at the Sepang F1 Circuit. The AFOS is a racing event that is made up of four difference races. They are the Formula BWM Asia, the Formula V6 Asia by Renault, Porsche Carrera Cup, and Asian Touring Car Championship.
I must say the event wasn’t as excited as I’d expected. There were only a handful of spectators and the races were nothing to shout about either. The races were short and not many cars took part.
Besides the races, there was a drifting competition opened to public I think. But sadly, it wasn’t exciting as well. The drifting was boring and the cars were even worst. Most uses the Toyota DX. Luckily there was a drifting demonstration by some pro drivers and that at least provided some entertainment. Oh and there was a dance performance, too.
Here are some pictures I took at the festival. All pictures were taken with my Fujifilm S9500 digital camera. Enjoy.

This is the second set of picture I took during my short trip to Penang on 29 April 2006. These pictures are taken at the Penang Botanic Garden. It is a huge place and with lots of plants and flowers, and monkeys, too.
Too bad I couldn’t taken any picture of the orchids as they are all locked up and only opens to public during certain hours of the day.

I went to Penang, a small island state in Malaysia on 29 April 2006 with my brother. It has been quite a while since the last time I was there… say about 2 or 3 light years ago. Anyway, it was just a short stopover. We were there for just a couple of hours. We managed to visit THE tourist attraction, the Kek Lok Si, a Buddhist temple and the Botanic Garden.
Below are some pictures taken at Kek Lok Si using my precious the Fujifilm S9500. I will post the pictures taken at the Botanic Garden in another post. I must admit the quality of the pictures taken are not very good and most are over exposed. This is probably because I am still not familiar with the camera. Hopefully I’ll master it sometime in the near (hopefully very near) future. For now, hope you’ll enjoy them.
