Classic postcard from Charleston

Another mansion from Charleston, SC. This time I shot at the gate to capture the "inviting" character of the alley.

The original RAW was a bit too green for me, so I switched to monochrome. And then I decided to give it that classic postcard look with white vignette and a bit of sepia, courtesy of Silver Efex.

Three posts with temples in a row? Time to return to Hong Kong then!

After a week of hard work, after a busy Saturday night (don't ask) there is hardly a better place to rest your tired eyes and body than Hong Kong Park. You can sit on a bench, watch fish and turtles, go to  the aviary and watch birds or go to the tai chi court and watch Chinese people trying to catch imaginary spiders.

No Hong Kong today, Kuala Lumpur instead.

Modern city, known mostly from Petronas Twin Towers landmark, pretty clean for asian standards. But every city needs a green refuge, a park, garden, or - like in this case - a mosque with surroundings designed to escape the midday heat. Or to spend lovely evening just walking around.

To me, this picture could be of a palace garden of 1001 nights.
