1st Putrajaya Dragon Boat Festival

Putrajaya always organize 1st what what event this recent. I came across this event from banner hang on road side. Feel quite interested because i never went to Dragon Boat competition before. Heard so much about the tradition but never really participate in it. So, i invite my housemate go along. But he at first don’t feel going. Not until he get a new UWA (ultra wide angle) TOKINA lens. See his pictures by UWA here and here.

The day was so hazy that my photo come out with all white sky background. Have to apply heavy photoshop. LOL. But the race is very interesting. Just that it a bit of Malay style. The drum is not chinese drum. So, sound doesn’t right. But, many malays join the competition, which i feel very surprise but yet proud. Because they don’t mind joining an event that originate from chinese culture. I salute. Compare with those that really care and mind of these small things. And guess what, they have international participant also. We hunt for Cathay and Air Crew leng lui. HAHA. And LCH die die want to wait Cathay Pacific team down to field and race.

We just spend, i think half to 1 hour there. Then go back edit photo plus continue sleep. ZZZ.
