Aquarama 2009

Working here in SLS gives me alot of chances in visiting wholesaler, exhibitions and farms. The first i have visited is the Aquatic International in Subang and Sanwa Aquatic in Subang too... a huge place of farming and holding ornamental fishes prior to exports and wholesales! it is just a great place.

And, the next best thing is the Aquarama 2009. Ive been there for the 2nd time, and as always.. it is kinda breathtaking with lots of new technology, fishes and new products. as always, my passion in taking photos, documenting whatever i see there and here is some shots...

Pascal and Nico

On May 17 and 18, one of my good friends, Pascal and Nico from Switzerland came to Malaysia for visits and holiday. It was great too see them again, and talks about fishes of course. We went to some fish collecting spots while they are in Penang, where i bring them to catch Channa gachua, Betta pugnax and some other typical Asian fishes... and photographing the habitats as well. Besides fishes, of cos, foods! If u come to Penang, the first thing to do is EAT! haha.. Penang is the heaven for food lovers where u can find all the great foods everywhere, and its cheap!
Anyway, there is some shots taken throughout the trips... enjoy!
