Chow Kit Road, one of the busiest place in KL, I've been in KL for almost 5 years now, but I never had an opportunity to capture every single moment I had during my studies, or hanging around this place. But luckily I have my DLSR while attending Sony Workshop at Hotel Continental, Chow Kit. This workshop is about essay photography, we learn how to snap some pictures to translate it into a story of KL and then present back to the organizer. We were divided into groups and walk out around the area to shoot and create some wonderful story there.We didn't won, as other contestants were highly superior than us, but me and my team members learn some very valuable experience during our time outing together. Not only learned about the photography itself, me also saw the other side of Chow Kit. We can see people rush, to across the road, cars and motorcycles stuck in traffic jam, others were doing their daily job, to earn their living. Most of them still young, and strong, hunger to find some money to coupe with the rhythm of KL, everything is going so fast and very costly living here.
Not all people have a proper education in their hands, so they know they have to work harder in life. As some people move towards to find their dream, some of them still sleeping, not because they didn't have a dream to catch, but they are homeless people just like in any other big city in the world. It's sad to see them sleeping in the street, being helpless and hopeless, with nobody seems to care. Not to forget, there were also an old man, sitting with his chair around lorong haji taib, don't know what is he doing there, so I snap some pictures of him and the others too. So this is it, the truth, the other side of Chow Kit Road.
