Top 20 Photos of 2013 - #17

I love this photo of my sister peeping behind the door accompanied by her youngest daughter and my daughter. This was taken before we left her house in Sungei Petani to attend the engagement ceremnony of my husband's nephew at Lunas, Kulim. I really like the white of the door being the backdrop to their colourful attire.

Top 20 Photos of 2013 - #18

It is not always easy to take a close-up of a horse; especially for it to be still and not moving. I would always end-up with tens of photos and and not liking any one of them. For this particular horse, I only had four shots  and I really like all four of them. What happens then? Which one to select for the top 20!!!!!
Well, after much to and fro, I decided on this one. This photo was taken at the Royal Selangor Polo Club, Ampang and he was ridden by my daughter's friend, Sophia, during the Dressage competition. He does look regal and I am grateful that he would stand still and pose for me. Lol!

Top 20 Photos of 2013 - #19

This girl, Maisarah, is very, very photogenic. I always like her smile and as a result, I will take photos of her whenever opportunity arises. She is my daughter's classmate. This photo was taken during their final school presentation ceremony and she wasn't aware I was pointing my camera at her. I liked her pose at the time and decided to freeze it forever.

Top 20 Photos of 2013 - #20

This post is for the "Top 20 Photos of 2013" blog hop organized by Duncan of The Kuantan Blog. The hardest bit is in selecting the photos and to narrow them down to 20. The elimination process is more tedious than I ever thought possible.
To start the ball rolling, I choose this photo which was taken during my recent trip to Dataran Merdeka with my two darlings.
The Sultan Abdul Samad building at Dataran Merdeka is always one of my favourite architectural structure. It represents one of the last Moorish architectural style in the world and I am proud that the Malaysian leaders choose to maintain them. This building used to be the government offices but after the move to Putrajaya, instead of abandoning it, this building is now used as a Tourist attraction center. I decided to shoot this building from a different angle and I really like the result.

Week 26 - Belated birthday on 25th Dec 2013

We don't celebrate Christmas. On this day, we had a family thanksgiving that includes among others introducing my nephew's new wife to my mum's family and friends (who couldn't make it to the wedding). For our Our--beautiful--world challenge this time, the theme is Christmas and I know mine is really out of tune. Still, I couldn't help sharing this photo of my beautiful niece with her birthday cake. It is actually a belated birthday celebration because her actual birthday falls on 11.12.13. An extremely auspicious birth date that will never be seen again. She chose 25.12.13 to celebrate the occasion because she wants to share this lovely day of hers with her grandma and other family members. Happy belated birthday Aisyah.

Authentic Style

It was a struggle trying to complete this layout. Since time was running out, I decided to use store-bought feathers instead of making my own. I decided to leave the colour as is to add some colours to the overall layout.
This layout is for Scrapfriends Blog Sketch challenge #19. I really like the sketch:


And here is the layout showing Zahra' on a vintage motorcycle on display. I think it was a Norton. This photo was taken when we took Zahra' to this restaurant for lunch a day before her 13th birthday.
