Eye on Malaysia on A Gloomy Day

A gloomy day for a ride on Eye On Malaysia (EOM). I have posted several shots of the EOM but I just can't help being fascinated with it.

Monochrome Monday - Eye on Malaysia & Bright Moon

Year-end school holiday has started. We brought our nieces and nephews for a treat ~ a ride on the Eye on Malaysia. Coincidentally, we had a bright moon on Friday evening when this photo was taken.

Isn't it beautiful to have the Eye on Malaysia together with the moon in one frame?

Sky Watch Fri - Urban Lanscape

I just saw this photo in my archive and love it. I like the orange tinge on the horizon that is caused by the sunrise. Sadly, one cannot capture similar photo like this in Lake Titiwangsa again. Reason being the Eye on Malaysia (EoM) has been moved to my hometown, Melaka. It's good news too because now I can see EoM every month when I go home. :o)

Happy Sky Watch and wish all of you a good weekend ahead! To see sky in other parts of the world, please visit Sky Watch Friday portal.

Sunset Watching - A Simple Pleasure

Sunset over the Eye on Malaysia (EoM) in its new site, in Kota Laksamana Melaka. I caught this photo from across the Melaka River, near where the Holiday Inn Hotel is. We just sit by the river with the guys who were fishing and enjoy the sunset. It's an excellent location to watch sunset! The sky was a huge canvas with ever changing strokes of paint and colours! It was a simple pleasure just sitting there and watch the sky beyond us changed, with the EoM in the foreground. It gets better when the light at the EoM was lit up!

Check out this location if you are in Melaka!

Theme Day: Dec 08 - Circles or Spheres - Eye on Malaysia

A peaceful morning at the Eye on Malaysia's old site, Lake Titiwangsa, would fit Dec's theme of Circles or Spheres. The reflection on the water form the plural entity of the Eye On Malaysia to fit today's theme.

As I reflect on the scene here, it is so peaceful and calm. But when I recall the news on today's frontpage regarding the terror attack in Mumbai, India and protests ongoing in Bangkok, Thailand, I can't seem to be calm. It makes me worry what is happening to our world. Why would people kill one another? Why is there so much of unrest and anger? Isn't there a better way to resolve differences? I wish that calm and peace would come to Mumbai and Bangkok.

My prayer for the people in Mumbai to be strong and calm as they deal with their losses and lives after this terror. And may there be a peaceful end to the unrest in Thailand. May the world has more love for one another.

SkyWatch Friday - Eye On Malaysia in Melaka

The Eye On Malaysia that was previously located in Lake Titiwangsa has been moved down to my hometown, Melaka. It was launched on last Friday evening. I went down to the site to take some photos of sunrise on Sunday morning. Glad to share them here with all of you for Sky Watch Friday. The new location for Eye On Malaysia is in Kota Laksamana, Melaka. The site is not completed yet. There is a plan to build a marina just next to it. It would be a beautiful tourist spot as many new tourist attractions are added here to make it more convenient to reach the location.

I am truly proud of the efforts that Malaccan Tourism department is putting into making my small hometown more attractive for tourists.

Happy SkyWatch Friday to all!! Wish you a lovely weekend ahead. Please visit Sky Watch Portal hosted by Old Tom Wigley to view skies around the world.

Reading Theme Continues

I will continue with the "Reading" theme today. Caught this man reading the Sunday paper at the Lake Titiwangsa Park. In the background is the Eye on Malaysia ferris wheel. This ferris wheel ended its operations on 31st August and will be dismantled and moved to my hometown in Melaka. It's a landmark in the park and I am surprised that its lifespan here only lasted less than 3 years, if I am not mistaken.
