Travel By Photos
Now is your turn Florence! I’m finally updating the travel photos of my previous travel to Florence, Italy. Following the introduction of this beautiful city of Tuscany last post, here is another snapshot that I took in Florence.
Some EXIF info: Photo taken with my Nikon D60 and my old Tamron SP10-24mm Ultra Wide Angle lens. Shutter speed 1/320s and Aperture F9.0. Focus distance was set to 10mm (with both sides being cropped). ISO 100. Auto White Balance. No flash fired and no exposure being compensated with Matrix metering.
What captured in the photo was the main entrance door arch of the Duomo, the highest structure being constructed in Florence, which shows the height of the entrance. It also demonstrates the brilliant craftsmanship of ancient Roman civilisation during the Renaissance era.

Before the festival which is 2 days away, this is another set of Chinese New Year decorations in Mid Valley, one of the largest shopping mega mall in Kuala Lumpur. Decorations in Mid Valley this year are not as good as last year version, and simpler if compared to other shopping malls like Sunway Pyramid, but they still attracted huge crowd flocking in to snap photos while they were shopping for CNY clothing and foods in the mall.
Main stage of decorations was set at the Centre Court of the mall.
Kiosks selling CNY merchandise are set up at the lobby.
Stage is set up for various performance in conjunction with the Chinew New Year of Dragon.
Another set of giant lanterns is hung and displayed at the East Court of the mall.
Nothing to shout about on the deco, but it could at least stimulate our Chinese New Year mood to do some last minute shopping for the new year. Until I come back from my break next week, Travel Feeder would like to wish those who celebrate the festival:
HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS LUNAR NEW YEAR OF DRAGON 2012!
There are certainly more Chinese New Year decorations can be seen elsewhere in Malaysia than those posted here, but Sunway Pyramid in Subang area has the best that I’ve seen so far this year. Sunway Pyramid is an infamous mega shopping mall found in the Klang Valley of Malaysia which is well known for its [...]
