beautiful..
I'm intrigued by the legend. The round shadows in the old photos are wonderful.
Happy New Year, Pak Awang! Wish you and family a blessed year ahead!
In the name of development, old buildings are being torn down and replaced! The developers always said it's for the sake of development. But how much truth are there in those statement?
Interesting and a different approach, the monos have been around and have survived a hard life by the look of it.
Have a good 2009.
Interesting way to copmare with the colour and mono and to see the changes.
Interesting ... you could reverse these posts and still make both MEMEs!
This is a sad post, but a beautiful memorial to the hospital. In spite of the loss, that last photo is lovely.
