Shopping in Kuala Lumpur, a photo from Kuala Lumpur, West

Photographer's Note

Kuala Lumpur is reputable for its vibrant shopping scene. Tourism is a big industry in Malaysia, raking in billions in tourist revenue annually; hence many premium shopping malls have sprouted over the years.

I’ve captured this colorful photo in Suria KLCC, Malaysia's premier shopping centre, located at the base of the Petronas Twin Towers in the Kuala Lumpur City Centre having shops on 6 floors.

"Suria" is a native Malay word derived from Sanskrit "surya", meaning "sunshine".

See also photos of Petronas Twin Towers I've posted earlier.

Hi Miro
Brilliant composition in such vibrant colors, It is interesting to see how the big ad poster strikingly stands out and placed so strategically just to influence the shoppers and it seems that no one will ever miss this. Clear advertising and they are watching all the times. The glowing green on a minimal shopper is a real bonus without much clutters is good and so effective that complementing the main interest up there. Excellent focus, sharp and meaningful type of artistry shot. Well done and good obseravtion. Congrats
Warm regards

Salut cher Miro

I remember walking around the KLCC - everything was so expensive, I did not dare buy anything as it was too expensive. But I do remember how photogenic the internal areas of the Petronas were. I like the warm lights too and the way you have cropped it. Excellent light management too, I know the light was not ideal there.

Bonne amitiés
Lisa

Fine taken the indoor's view of the mall, Miro.
The man in green on left is a good contrast point over the mostly red scene.
Light managed superbly.
