THERE IS NO MAGIC CAMERA THAT WILL MAKE YOU TAKE GREAT PICTURES.USE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU.DEVELOP SYSTEM THAT IS RELIABLE AND THAT YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH.
I really hesitated about publishing this one.I took a photo of this homeless or street beggar while doing my street documentary photo shoot.When I walked away I started thinking about the purpose of taking such a photo.Of course one could argue that a picture of the sad sides of our world is a good thing since it highlight the fact that not all people are as fortunate to have home or someone caring for them.

My trip to Sibu Town is just for few hours as I have a very tight schedule.Well, Sibu was busier and more crowded then I tought.The locals from nearby village & small town along Rajang River come to Sibu on weekend for their shopping and outing.(Photo above is express boat terminal & jetty).
Sibu shipyard and old Malay Kampung as seen from Sibu waterfront along Igan river.
The sunset from the mighty Rajang River and the longest river in Malaysia.
The old bus at Sibu Town bus station or bus terminal.
Sibu central market is the largest wet market in Sarawak.It's clean and airy.
It was very interesting walking through it on a busy Sunday morning and checking out the local produce.Local fighting cock also on sale(Photo above).
The 'Buah Dabai' seem to be sold in every corner,it must be in season.Buah Dabai looks like a big olive.Just washed the fruits clean,then dunked them to soak inside warm water for at least 15 mins for buah dabai goes soft.I can't describe the taste because it's so mild.In Sibu buah dabai is cheaper,the most expensive were sold at Rm12.00 per kilo and the cheapest at Rm3.00 per kilo.
Local women are hard working person in Sibu.I can see most small time vendors at the market are women.They sell local forest vege and fresh fish from the river and are much cheaper in Sibu.
Sibu Town has a lot of motorbike and a few old vintage bicycle .Bicycle are legal and have licence to be on the crowded road.(see photo her licence or permit is issue by the Town Council plate # 03507)
Perhaps it will be more adventrous to take the express boat to other places, village and places in the interior along Rajang & Igan River.

Those scenes at the express wharf kinda nostalgic and bring back old fond memories of those good old days when we frequented Sibu/Sarikei/Igan by the express boats but then there was no Express Terminal to serve the public.

The gateway to the garden.
Most local Kuching people say that after many years staying in Kuching,they did not even know the existence of Hokien Garden at Pending area.Because of this I went there to have a look and share it with my valuable friends from My World Tuesday.
The 12 animals that appear on the Chinese zodiac calendar is the main attraction at the garden.

The lalang grass is a pest or weed to the local here.
Lalang can thus be seen easily in empty land which have not been cared for , rice fields which have not been worked on for many years and even houses which have been left unattended.

I am sorry for not updating & share my photo shoot for several days because I couldn't get online .The internet connection in my area seem getting slower from day to day but anyway I don't want to miss the sky watch Friday and I would like to share the view of the wild grass and the sky from the back yard of my house.
Thank You.
