PhotoHunt 102 Metal

Posted by Daniel Chew On March - 22 - 2008

PhotoHunt

PhotoHunting is back again this weekend and this time the theme is metal. Well, what I can say is that I haven’t been that actively finding shots but I will be back. The photo hunting is back into my blood. Now all I need to sort out is my work task and other activities. Dang, was supposed to go hiking up the rocky Tabur Hills today, well maybe next week.

Metal Old Train Head

The picture above was taken with my compact camera Casio Exilim Z750. Well, I was visiting Taiping, Perak of Peninsular Malaysia and decided to go to the museum. Looks like this was one of those old steamers they used to have during the olden years. It’s metal all right! Wonder they could preserve it for a long time, but looks like it’s starting to rust.

No no.. get someone to go oil it will ya, museum guys…… *over-exaggerated action to be taken*

    Taiping is the wettest town in the whole country and they left that antique under rain and shine? Gosh, the museum should take some actions to protect the historic piece from rust. Anyway, this is a great photo to share with us :)
