Welcoming 2013

Six AM, Dec.31,2012, we’re already in bus station for early morning trip to KL. We’re anticipating 2013 New Year’s countdown and want to search for a nice location for taking fireworks photography. Hopefully this time I could apply what I had read over a lot of blogs on how to take a nice fireworks photo.

Around 10am when reached KL and carefully searched for an overnight stay in a hotel, hoping not to be overcharge by those taking advantage during holiday season. We just surveyed KLCC ground which is also one of the centers for the fireworks event.

Able to find a hotel room between Jalan Pudu and LRT station, we then walk around the area which also happens to be near Dataran Merdeka. People were all busy for the preparation for the countdown thus we didnt had a nice glimpse of it.

We went to one of the galleries there and we’re amazed by the beautiful glass replica of KL’s landmarks. With a combination of perfect lights, we able to capture some of them.

We then decided to go to Butterfly farm to have some serious photos while waiting for the grand event. I already posted some of those here.

Tired and sweating, we have to go back to our hotel and recharge for the big event.

Time is ticking… We have to go back to KLCC and get at least some shots before the countdown. Here are some of the night shots of KL tower.

Five… Four… Three… Two… One…

 

Happy New Year Everyone!!!
