Business-Cum-Holiday Trip to Brunei July 2007

The Oil and Gas Discovery Centre

At a recent course I attended which was held at Brunei Shell Petroleum's Learning and Development Training Centre Seria (the oil producing town), I took some interesting pictures of some of the oil and gas facilities structures erected within the vicinity of the Seria Disctrict.

Along both sides of the walkway is a display of some awesome gallery of monument stone plagues showing the many past historical and current operations carried out at the oil and gas facilities at Brunei Shell Petroleum.

Camera Shots

“I left my heart in San Francisco.”

That is the theme my dear friend Nina used for sharing some beautiful pictures she took during her family trip to San Francisco, USA. A well thought theme for the awesome pictures taken by a beautiful friend!

I mentioned in one of my blogs about how I got interested in taking photographs with my Sony Digital Camera. Well, after looking at the pictures from the Internet, I was so impressed by how talented these photographers are. It doesn’t matter whether they are novice or professional photographers; their pictures are equally awesome!

Came Nina; she further inspired me to get my camera clicking and since then I make sure I carry my camera with me wherever I go.

Today I received an email from her and here I would like to show you some of the pictures that she took and shared with me.

What do you think?

Petronas Twin Tower KLCC Dec2006

During my recent holiday to Kuala Lumpur, I took many pictures and one is that of Petronas Twin Towers. These two-column structures is an awesome sight and a very famous attraction to many visitors.

Petronas Towers), in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, were once the world's tallest buildings when measured from the level of the main entrance to the structural or architectural top.
The Petronas Twin Towers are currently the tallest twin towers in the world, and they lay claim to being the world's tallest high-rise of the 20th century. Critics point out that this applies to only one of four height categories defined by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat - although the three additional height categories were only introduced as the tower neared completion in 1996, as opposed to the original category, which had been in use since 1969.
