Visiting Art Galleries

On 23 June 2013, my classmate and i went to KL International PhotoAwards 2012 which is an annual international photography competition in KLCC. There was no entrance charges and the architecture was both impressive and unique. There were many types of photo on display based on different country's artwork. The artworks on display were categorised in to 2 parts : (a)Potrait Single (b)Smartphone story

2nd Prize: 'Hunter with giraffe, Ladysmith, South Africa' by David Chancellor

In this gallery under the part of single portrait, i found that this artwork that really caught my attention was the animal hunter in South Africa. This is one sport that i do not support and upon viewing the image, I had a sad feeling of what these people were doing in South Africa. But subject matter aside, the portrait of the hunter with his giraffe was one of the more memorable image that i saw in this competition. It's great that the photographer managed to lay the giraffe in a way that keeps the dignity of the animal intact. In this photograph, the beauty of the animal is still present with the huge arch of its neck going across the photograph.

After visited the gallery, we went to shopping for 2 hours then go back uni.

This is a nice memory for the visiting a art gallery.
