This time, we found Children on the Swing and Sister and brother playing basketball. These are not Ernest's work, but of a local artist Louis Gan. Very similar paintwork and style.

Impromptu photowalk in Penang
Referring to my previous post on lazing around in Penang. With nothing to do in Penang, we decided to look for another 2 art murals along Gat Lebuh Chulia that we missed the last time. With the help of Google and Waze, we found the road in no time. (*note : Mr Hubs is in Penang and he don't know his way around Penang. Been away for too long)

Photowalk in Penang
I went to Penang during the long weekend break to relax and rejuvenate. It was refreshing to be away from the city. The past few months had been stressful for me.
There's no plan to do anything and just go with the flow and eat my way there. This time around, I brought along most of my film cameras as I need to finish off the roll. And to test out a few vintage cameras that I acquired.
A friend said to me before, why send the camera to fix when you don't know whether it has any defect at all? Why not take the cheaper option of putting a roll of film and start snapping? You can judge for yourself when the photos are developed. That makes sense. And that's what I did.
I am definitely in love with my "new" old Minolta 110 Zoom SLR. The results came out better than expected. There's no need to fix it at all. It has its usual grainy feel to it.
My husband and I took a walk around Penang town in search of the "famed" art murals by Ernest Zacharevic. The sun was scorching hot but it was worth it. I'm glad that we took the walk because some of the murals had fade.
These are taken with the Panasonic Lumix LX5 by Mr Hubs because I was busy with something else.

This is a random one that we found. Beautiful.
There are a few more that we did have not found due to limited time. Will be back to Penang during CNY and hopefully look for the others.
