Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic (Sunrise)

We just have the coldest day in 60 years!

There was snow cum rain in the Tai Mo Shan (mountain) which fell to -5 degrees last night.

There were reports of the same elsewhere;  frost was reported on the lower grounds.

I can only blame global warming which has brought us extreme weather throughout the world.

Snow was never heard of in Hong Kong.

However, I know I have to be optimistic.

The view of sun rise has always brought me hope and even faith in God. This picture was taken in Langkawi, Malaysia.

Let’s be Optimistic and hope that everything will be back to normal in a few days’ time.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Now (Sunset)

The setting sun reminds me more than anything that the present moment is Now.

In a couple of minutes time, the sun will have sunk below the horizon.

In 15 minutes, the sky will have darkened and the day will be coming to a close.

The photo was taken in Langkawi, Malaysia. It reminded me so strongly that I shouldn’t be chasing sunset anymore and should be back at the hotel for dinner.

 

Weekly Photo Challenge: Happy Place ( Langkawi 2)

My ideal place of a Happy Place is a place with blue sky, beach with fine white sand and a blue sea.

This is something easily tenable at Langkawi, Malaysia.

Better still, here are some boats ready for anyone who enjoy sea sports!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Happy Place ( Langkawi )

This week’s DP photo challenge is Happy Place.

Langkawi, Malaysia has always been my favorite destination for travels.

Happiness is lazing on the beach or wading to the near shore islands when the tide is out.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Today was a Good Day (Langkawi)

All my days in Langkawi, Malaysia were good days.

The good days there usually consisted of walking along the beach and watching the sunset when the days were coming to an end.

Sitting out on the rocks and meditate was also my favorite pastime, just like the man in my photograph.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Beneath Your Feet (Cable Stayed Footbridge)

We took the cable car to the top of the hill in Langkawi, Malaysia.

From there we have a panoramic view of the mountains and the blue ocean.

There is a cable stayed footbridge which takes you from one side of the mountain to another.

The cable stayed bridge has only one middle pier support off the mountains.

Standing on the footbridge, gazing out, all you have beneath you is the bridge deck and hundred feet of air before you reached the ground below.

You understand that is a big air gap under you!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Ephemeral (Langkawi 2)

The views are just beautiful in Langkawi, Malaysia.

As we strolled on the seaside boardwalk, we didn’t know what is around the corner.

The sunset was again ephemeral.

We ended up chasing the sunset – getting as far West as we possibly can; until the sun sunk below the horizon.
