Photowalk to Thaipusam 2015 Batu Caves [Part 3]: Shave & Shower
 |
| Thaipusam 2015 Batu Caves - Shave & Shower |
Happy CNY to you guys who still celebrating it especially "Bai Ti Gong" this Thursday. I still remember I can see a lot of huge fireworks that day. Okie this is the continuation of my Thaipusam 2015 @ Batu Caves photo post and this time I would like to feature moments captured at the riverside. Where you see people taking shower after shaved their head and get blessing from the god before carry a barrel of milk and going up hill to Batu Caves. Photos are captured using Nikon D800 and paired with Nikkor 85mm F1.8 or my #TCFisheye lens for the wide view~

So far I kinda like the Nikkor 85mm F1.8 lens as it is good for taking portrait at a distance. Love the bokeh shown at night and you can see it from my previous Thaipusam post.
