Another photo from Malacca. This one was taken at my grandma’s place. It’s an old Malacca-style Malay house. After so many years, it’s a pity that I only began to appreciate the Malay architecture only after I returned to Malaysia from Michigan.
The orange columns used to be less fiery and they were coated with light green. In similar way, the original photo is less striking. Reason is, I did some manipulation in Photoshop; I contrasted the colors a bit. Too much manipulation to my own “purist” liking.
And see the two huge black spaces? They aren’t the result of cropping. The lower space is a wooden beam while the upper one is actually the house ceiling. Not quite a ceiling but I can’t find the right vocab for it. In fact, if you observe closely the upper black space, you’ll see how wooden beams have been laid out to support the house.
The opening is not a hole either.
Still, the whole thing looks a bit too dark. Oh well. Buck the Fuckeyes.
p/s – went through my folder and found a sharper image for yesterday’s subject.
I like yesterday’s orientation better though.

Hi,
I like your previous frame of the flower better. Somehow feels more balanced.
wow. That’s too accurate for a lucky guess. Yeah, my grandma’s place is at Pulau Sebang. Specifically, Tanjung Rimau Dalam.
How did you know?
Where is it? Which part of Malacca?
Are you the one from Pulau Sebang?
