Cotton photo freebies. Gerai Orang Asli Cameron Highlands

Pic 1 - The Polaroid edit.


I don't know the exact location on the map because there are no signboards or landmarks on the real route. It was also outside of my knowledge to lookup the location in Nokia Maps; the knowledge of which came after the trip :(

Pic 2 - The original of Pic 1.


Even though it looks like tilt-shift (see also miniature faking), there are no camera effects in Pic 2; in fact, no effect was intended. The camera was in Sport Spectator mode, i was in a moving car going downhill (from Ringlet to Kampung Batu Sebelas, see Map 1), and the curb on either side of the road is too narrow to stop safely.

Map 1 - Shown on the map is the mid-route between Tapah (in the state of Perak) and Cameron Highlands (in the state of Pahang).

Quote from my LiveJournal blog:

Pictures to share and use. i don't know much about licensing but i still want to share them with anyone who wishes to view or use them. What a waste it would be if these pictures were lost when my eyes were the only pair to see them. If use of these pictures will serve any good, you are welcome.

Funny, i'm quoting myself! :p


To learn how to create a polaroid frame, see here, Polaroid frame effect using GIMP. I had to do some extra modifications for Pic 1 because Blogger does not support transparency, thus is why the pic is JPEG instead of PNG.

A friend once asked me:

Name me one job in the world where you're paid to do nothing.

And i can't think of a single one... even up until now.
