The Sunset of Rajang Riverside Esplanade.

P4110234

The graceful swan of the Rajang riverside esplanade is an ancient Chinese symbol of good fortune and health,an auspicious omen for a community living in harmony,peace and goodwill.A swan is said to have been fed by the towns folk of Sibu,long ago,even when they themselves were starving.The grateful bird showed them how to extract edible starch from wild sago to end the famine one good turn deserves another !!.

    This is really a wonderful capture. I love the color in the water and how "wet" it looks. It's beautiful.
