It was a sunny day. In fact, it was a hot and bright day. We went to Tien Hou Temple for our photo practice. As usual, my photography buddy and I are always keen to improve our techniques ( both of us are still beginner), we don't mind the hot sun.
It was about 12 noon we reached there. The sun was directly under our head. As a result, most of our shots turn out to be dark and too much shadow.
Just a brief introduction , Tien Hou Temple (Chinese: 天后宫) is a landmark six-tiered Chinese templer in Kuala Lumpur. It is located on a 1.67 acres (6,760 m²) of land atop Robson Heights along Lorong Bellamy, overlooking Jalan Syed Putra, Federal Highway (Source: Wikipedia)
It is famous as one of the tourist attractions in KL, crowded during chinese festivals and favourite marriage registration place among the chinese.

"Journey to the west" statues
This shot was dark and with more shadow
Lotus at the back garden
Bright red window
Bamboo leave ~ close up shot. I cropped it, the original shot taken with huge white wall on top. Cropped to maintain the red window.
