A morning photoessay exploring Gurney Bay Penang, a luxurious waterfront park launched in 2024. Despite its clean design, I struggled with the flat, minimal space and lack of depth. With my Canon 5DSR and TS-E 45mm, I experimented with tilt-shift techniques, framing the waning crescent moon and Venus at dawn. This shoot reminded me how quickly light and clouds shift, and how even quiet places can teach you something new.

Major scenes in Penang from the past that are no longer the same today as a result of major construction. In frame Dec 2022 and April 2014.
