Before I want to talk about the real thing.. Lemme share you something funny for me. (for me lar)

Connex is Melbourne’s Public Transport Train. Same level as KTM to be honest.

Don’t you love when you found some of the Local Gallery and mir’s website update. I always told my friend here in Melbourne in Malaysia.. I believe that We have our own Photographer back in the days documented the life of people and places no matter in Malaya or Borneo.

Guess what I found?

Yes, we do have.. (maybe Im outdated, but thanks to me. I research myself and I found 1 instantly.. There’s no place as Mir)

Sultan of Terengganu 1945-1979. Sultan Ismail is a Photographer itself.

Anyway that’s his darkroom. picture taken from mir’s website.

Basically, he do everything by himself. I can call him a truly of Masters Photographer. I can’t wait to go back to Malaysia and visit his work at eqFineArt Gallery in KL.

Y’all can check out the late Sultan Ismail’s Priceless Legacy at http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/portfolio/sultan/seaside.htm and also here http://www.artmajeur.com/?go=artworks/display_mini_gallery&login=arttransact&mini_gallery_id=1253164&artist_id=0.

Ok.. Enough about him.

I’m trying to find who’s the first local Photographer in Sabah or Sarawak. I can’t find any particular one but so far KF Wong is the only Photographer I can find he documented the life and places of Borneo in the 1940′s and 1950′s. How I wish I was born in those days.. haishhhhh~~~~

KF Wong

The Dayak

I only manage to find that kind of image on the net. Don’t worry there’s more picture you can view at eqFineart web gallery by clicking this link http://www.artmajeur.com/?go=artworks/display_mini_gallery&login=arttransact&mini_gallery_id=1005966&artist_id=19968ℑ_id=161458&disp_m=normal&serie=1.

Now I know what gallery I can visit already in KL.

Can’t wait to start my Land Below the Wind project….

Did you learn something new today?
