Wow, #3 is trippy. Almost computer-animated. Very striking.

Very nice! Great lighting. Did you add the clouds PP or use a polarizer when shooting?

Someone stole all of my photography equipment and replaced it with exact duplicates.

Thanks.

No post processing except for white balance correction. Shot without any filter. I used my Tamron 17-50.

I waited patiently until the light was at its best: when the sun went below the horizon, but still illuminating the clouds. It only lasted for 5min, then the sky turned darker.

KLCC is a wonderful building to shoot, when the light is right. The steel surface is always changing...

odd piece of trivia, did you know that Tower 1 was built by a Japanese firm, and Tower 2 by a Korean firm?

Well, this is my first visit to KL (and Asia, for that matter) and I have to say it is the most beautiful city I've been to. I took these last night with the Sigma 10-20 uwa.

Cedm - about what time did you take those shots? The humidity here seems to create quite a haze in the morning. Did you use a polarizer?

"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

First two shots around 7.30pm and the third one half an hour later. I didn't use any filter, and yes, haze can be a major problem here. Weather was clear that day, although it has been raining lots in the evening lately.

You should visit hong kong next time you go Asia, there's so much more to take picture of. I find KL quite limited, but it's good for street photography nonetheless.

Excellent work! You have captured the towers elegantly.
