Photoessay: Nostalgic Scenes From the Past.

Writer: yzhensiangyzhensiang

Was going through my archive looking for images to compile a new series of personal project. This is where I realise Penang as a whole has come a long way in the past decade constructing the island to be a better place. Some leaving more impact than others but generally we are heading forward. Attracting more investments, more people and more income. This inevitably causes some major scenes from the past to change and are no longer the same today.


Me being the photographer being at the forefront of things, documenting bits and pieces of it as it change. It really has been a long way since. Here are 2 major nostalgic scenes from the past that have changed. In frame are scenes from December 2022 and April 2014
