The smell of the sea, the sight of sun, beach and girls. This sentence reminds me of baywatch (some old series that I used to see when I was like in primary school). Well, too bad though, there won’t be any baywatch girls to see this time around. Keep it for the next visit. This time though, it’s time to revisit my past escapades to an island in Malaysia, Langkawi Island. The place known because it’s tax free.

First day upon landing at Langkawi with my flight ticket, it is as usual with a bunch of photography enthusiasts, non-stop shooting. The sky was partly right, with a bit of haze on some of the days.

It was scorching hot, but you will see many foreigners (from the west) do their sunbathing under the glorious sun. It was so bright and hot, there are even those who have their skin peeled off. Wonder how they can stand sunbathing under the sun with peeled-off skin and all the pus?

It was too hot, till no one plays at the beach volleyball court. Well, what can one expect when it’s like 11am in the morning. Most of Day one was spent taking photos of scenery, looking for a perspective to shoot. At times Daniel wished he owned a UWA (Ultra Wide Angle) lens, let’s say a 10-20mm Sigma to capture the great scene.

Not enough of Redang, the first part of the Redang crashing was more of the people that are in the trip. Well, it was at first hard to organize a trip such as this, but then looks like I enjoyed doing it. LOL…

If you missed the first part, here it is….
Redang Kalong Got Crashed

Well, I guessed enough of people in the photos, I want to see the sceneries and the sea there. What a better way to showcase it then to have it feature on this blog eh… Well, a lot of other photography I should also research. I am still not as good a photographer like those with high tech kits, but with a D40, I think that’ll do.

While walking on the Long Beach on course with the Laguna Redang Beach, here’s a scenery shot of the Redang Reef resort along the rocky ground with the sea overlooking it. Though it’s been like 4 years since I stayed in Laguna.

But what about Marine Park, the very famous natural reserve now being taken care by the marine park personnels. They really do keep check all their corals there too.

Though the amount of people there made me lost interest in snorkeling. But if you haven’t yet snorkel yet, do give it a try, the corals there are breathtaking. Those still clueless, Redang Island is situated on the East of Peninsular Malaysia around the lands of Terengganu.
