Answer: correct
Question: Yes, my camera got a torch light feature :)

Thank you so much for the comments, much appreciated.

Thanks, Harvey. Yup, this the bird. Many other species at this place. The name of this place is "Pulau Burung", Penang. One of the best place for bird.

Thanks, my Lord.

He is crying in happiness. The oranges almost equal the size of his head. Can survive without food for 3 days, haha

In order to show the reflection in the tiles your primary subjects (the ornate pillars) became so far away as to have less impact. One day I'll visit and photograph your beautiful homeland!

Thank you so much, bro. You're are most welcome. Let me know if you have a plan here.

This entry is not my 1st choice but it's one of the few images I going to donate to the temple. Some of the shot with the priest posing, got to give them prints. I got a funny bird snapshot too on the same day. I name the The Saint Kingfisher :)

This is my 1st choice but was replace.

Congrats!! Amazing shot, fresh, crisp, sharp and how tough to get so near them. Well done, Harvey.
