I love capturing photos of plants, food and non-living things because I always believe, although they are not human, but they do have their own expression and emotion yet to be read and appreciated.

Eye on Malaysia

In conjunction with the 50 years of independence celebration, 2007 is the "Vsit Malaysia Year". The first big event that we have is the launching of this "Eye on Malaysia".

The Eye on Malaysia is the tallest portable observation wheel in the south-east Asia. The 60 metre structure is located at Titiwangsa Lake Gardens, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The
ferris wheel comprising of 42 gondolas (including 1 VIP one) is similar to the London Eye and has been unveiled in conjunction of Visit Malaysia Year 2007 on January 6, 2007 by Malaysian Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
This giant ferris wheel allows visitors to experience a 360-degree panoramic view of Kuala Lumpur during a 12-minute ride that goes 60 metres high. It offers a magnificent view of Kuala Lumpur and over 20 kilometres of its surroundings including
KL Tower, Istana Budaya and Petronas Twin Towers.

Below are some of the photos that I took 2 days before the launching... some part of the park are still in construction.
