STREETS : IS THERE STILL A LIGHT?


This photo was taken at one of the KL streets where this woman was occupied in her own world & her junk...there are many areas in KL streets where this kind of drug addicts can be found but we can assure that this one was too ‘high’ to realize that she actually doing her ‘thing’ in front of busy streets with people walking past her... the question is...IS THERE STILL A LIGHT for people like her?...i wonder if we could ever dig her life history...it must be a long journey before she became like this...


The quality of this photo is where the drug addicts sitting in the far corner lane made by row of pillar...creating a natural lights on & off focus untill it shined straight on her...and it just perfectly reflects the riddle of IS THERE STILL A LIGHT in her life..

STREETS : THE BARBER





These collection of photos above actually taken on the second time we visit this barber uncle somewhere around Pudu Streets...amidst so many things in this mundane world moving fast & high tech...this uncle choose to continue his family tradition & business...yet we believe he’s putting tradition above business in his priority list...judging from the not-so-well-paid barber (so-called) shop...we can tell that he’s not earning much from his hand to the mouth...still he choose to remain doing like what he’s doing in this photo...after this calm & wrinkle nihilist uncle gone...who’s going to take that role??...that we believed left for us to answer..

We chose these photos because of the retro values of the true street faces & scenes it carried...the yellow color of the building just perfectly light up the solemn mood of the barber (so-called) shop...and not forgetting the moment that make us think maybe in 2 or 5 years from now...what’s going on to happen to this particular streets especially this barber (so-called) shop...
