Mosque for Foozi, a photo from Pulau Pinang, Ouest

Photographer's Note

This Majid Jamek at Teluk Tikus in Tanjung Bungah I dedicate to my TE friend Foozi. It's a relatively new mosque which really stands out with its stunning architecture. Locally it is known as the floating mosque as the complex is build on cement stilts right above the sea in a lovely cove. Nearby lives a community of Malay fishermen in a housing complex build after the tsunami in late 2004.

Hi Urs,
The cloudless vivid blue sky makes the ideal backdrop for this splendid architecture to stand out against.
Love the sharp lines and splendid details to the mosque.
The colors are crystal clear with the perfect amount of sharpness to this striking image.
Regards, Tom

Hi Urs
Très jolie, j'aime ce style moderne, sa forme, ses détails et ses couleurs, une belle architecture "flottant" sur l'eau et bien ressorti par le fond bleu du ciel
Friendship

Great capture Urs!! Congratulations..

Hi Urs,
sorry that I have not been on TE for quite sometimes. Very busy indeed and lately Im already very very slow in this precious forum.
Im very very touched by your dedication, furthermore right now 8am Sat, Im listening to Francis Goya latin classical guitar. It plucks my emotion and strums my heart.
This mosque is a beauty, beauty in its architecture and its
photographic presentation.
Lovely sky and excellent neatness which hard to get in Malaysia?
Very sharp and very clear, very special and splendid. Jusni and me have been promising of having photographic stint in Penang but it never materialise as jobs demand me.
I must congratulate you for the consistency in sending exciting daily life and useful point for information, to ponder and wonder.
As for your questions in the mosque post previously, I would say ...it is my eyes and my view. I just simply like dramatic presentation and exciting perspective. So you would expect something like distorted view,leaning towers, super bright colours and abtract/weird composition. But that it is niot that easy..I like graphical composition too.
Maybe just to be a bit different, that costs individual taste.
Thanks for your concern too.
Thanks again Urs, really appreciate and seriously we are looking forward to meeting you.

Best regards,
Foozi
