"When the lights go out...."

More pics from Melaka during the Christmas period! This time some night shots ;) Tricky, yes... but when you get it *right*, it sure beats the heck out of day shots :D

And where better to take them than the most photographed place in Melaka Bandaraya Bersejarah: the 'Red Houses'!

Colourful trishaws... unfortunately, the guy turn off the lights after he saw me snapping pics... heh... no free rides :P

Notice the party-goers wearing Santa hats in the background... :) :)

And a 'special' shot...

(actually I caught it unintentionally... but sure looks like those we find in magazines, where the car lights streak past :P)

Sg Melaka underwent heavy renovation/beautification lately. It is now transformed into this classy place...

Yeah, me too. Can come n visit... u'll be surprised at the changes! :D

For night shots I usually do a trial n error. Start with Auto (with flash off), then if cannot, set it to high ISO. worse come to worse, just use timer and ask everyone to keep still! :P
