Kuantan roads - Part 4

Welcome to Kuantan roads - Part 4, the final installment. It's always great photographing scenes of nature during hot, clear, blue-sky days. There is no need for the flash, and instead, the camera captures all the natural light as it falls down from above.

The photos today show roads in Bukit Sekilau, Kuantan, under the most glorious of skies and soaked in mid-afternoon heat. These are the roads I love to walk when I have a bit of free time. This week, you've been able to walk them with me from the comfort of your own homes. Hope you enjoyed it!



This is a miniature pineapple. It doesn't grow any bigger than this. Fantastic little thing isn't it?!









Loved this heart shape leaf









The dashing blue sky was too good to miss!

Looks pretty good in black and white too


These grassy plants decorate the roadside in Bukit Sekilau, Kuantan






Photographing roads can be very tricky if there is no supporting cast either side. Thanks to nature for filling in and beautifying each photo!

  3. Hi Misha, thanks for visiting! The pure sunlight really makes for good pictures :)

    Mum, this picture is of a miniature pineapple - it only grows to this small size. Larger, edible pineapples are also growing along the roads but on the floor in a basin of leaves.
