Gloomy Day

On the 3rd of March, there was a massive downpour in the Klang Valley which resulted in flash floods around the city.

I was lucky to be still working after 6pm as I was on late shift duty which ends at 7:30pm. Since it happened to be my colleague's last working day; we planned to stay back later than usual for dinner.

After the downpour, our office building seemed to be surrounded by clouds, which provided a surreal view that we were floating in the skies; but also masked our view of the horrendous traffic jams which were going on the ground below.




I took this from the window near my work area... The next shot is even more eerie...



Of course I've edited the photo's colour curves to give it a more eerie effect. Sure makes you feel rather cold, right?

  8. Hi foong,

    You're thinking about Clode City, owned by Lando Calrissian?

    Well, you're partially right because where I worked, we have a living, breathing Darth Vader...
