Blur-Memories of Black & White

Memories are to be revisited, even it seems a little bit blur over the times

but it's worth looking back for inspiration!

The path leads you through and

let you discover the beauty of Tasik Shah Alam.

A lovely scene of a tree near the lake that

defines the calmness of Tasik Shah Alam.

I love photography and this is my photography assignment during my University days many years back.

All images are from the theme nature concept of "Tasik Shah Alam or Shah Alam Lake Garden."

I also love black and white photos, these images were developed in the dark room...

It was so fun from doing the shooting to work out in the darkroom.

This made me understanding and appreciate the process of taking photos, especially black and white ones....

Do you occasionally check on your old photos and works?

I do and hope you have a wonderful time strolling with me here too:)

If you like what you see, please check out my other entries on Shah Alam Lake Garden under the label travel here.
