Photography trip to Malaysia — every frame a gift

I came to Malaysia specifically for photography and the country delivered material at every turn. George Town street art at dawn was everything I'd hoped. Penang's streets at dusk are an endless source of light and texture. The people, once comfortable with a camera, are extraordinary subjects.

extraordinary multicultural food scene gave me some of my favourite images of the year. The only practical note: public transport outside KL — plan around it. Otherwise this is a photographer's dream. I've rarely come home with so much usable material from a single trip.
