\nThank you company (again<\/a>)!<\/p>\n


\n…and now, for more shots from the company trip in Redang (anywhere from the 27th February 2008 to 1st March 2008.)<\/p>\n


\nYes, it was obvious whose territory we were now in!<\/p>\n


\nThe ferry.<\/p>\n


\nThe island. No, wait, not this one.<\/p>\n

Anyway one thing that really made the islands and greens and skies pop out was the use of my Sony Alpha 700’s Dynamic Range Optimizer set to Level 5, the maximum available. You know what it’s like if you were to shoot the same scene without such a fantastic feature – the island would be dark and the sky would be a bright white.<\/p>\n


\nAh, here at last!<\/p>\n


\nLaguna Redang Beach Resort. This is the one with the More More Tea Inn (I bought the T-shirt! I thought Summer Holiday was a really nice movie even though they played it on repeat on TV, making sure I could catch both the ending and beginning…)<\/p>\n


\nMy colleagues ran right into the waves!<\/p>\n


\nWet benches. We came at the wrong (or right) time – the waves were coming in, and so the sea was not safe for swimming on subsequent days.<\/p>\n


\nOh well, what a waste.<\/p>\n


\nAnd when the sign is red, NO SWIMMING!<\/p>\n


\nAnother sign tells you not to feed the monkey. Yes, there is one<\/b> solitary monkey on this island. Poor, poor lonely monkey.<\/p>\n

That’s why they call it Monkey Island<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nSplash!<\/p>\n


\nSeafood green is in fashion.<\/p>\n


\nIt’s quite something to watch waves crash, while the rocks resist.<\/p>\n


\nTired with the view, we crossed over to the other resort.<\/p>\n


\nOn the way back, we made a pit stop. Interesting prices the other states in Malaysia have!<\/p>\n
