IOI City Mall, Putrajaya – Part 9

I like the visual contrasts created by the group of women in black burqa and the shiny reflective floor. I am guessing they are group tourists from the Middle East as only guided tourists shop in groups. No?

When I saw the scene from outside, I was thinking “The world is a stage”. The shop front is like a Chinese opera stage. The challenge was keeping perspective distortion under control. I used Photoshop ‘select by colour range’ to isolate the reds.

So, what is a Yubi So?

IOI City Mall, Putrajaya – Part 6

Unlike branded ice cream, the promoters are happy to let you sample the various nuts in trays. Shown here cashew nuts, raw walnuts and raw hazelnuts. Pistachios and macadamias are nearby. There’s also dried berries and fruits. The nuts at the nutty bar are sold by weight. As an indication, the cashews were priced at RM 21 per 100 grams at the time I was there. The shop is named Castania Malaysia.

Not hastily removed to make way for Chinese New Year. Happens in multi-ethnic, multi-religious Malaysia. What looked like an angel clambering down the stairs was an angel sticking out from the tree.

A choco strawberry cake by Japanese patisserie Komugi. I can’t afford it but, for me, the satisfaction was working on removing the strong yellowish cast created by the display lighting.
