Photowalk: Chow Kit Wet Market

Last Saturday, I made my first lone Photowalk for the year 2014. Initially I plan to walk with my fellow street shooter, Ivan Tan but he could not make it as he works on Saturday.

As I used to be a Lone Street Shooter, I continued with my plan. My walk will start from the Pasar Seni LRT Station and the route will cover Petaling Street, Pasar Karat, Jalan Masjid India, Jalan TAR, Chow Kit and the Chow Kit Wet Market. I will be back to Pasar Seni LRT Station via the same route.

Choice of gear:
I carried both Nikon D7000 + 50mm f1.8G and Olympus OMD E-M5 + 12-50mm f3.5-6.3

I start of with Nikon D7000 + 50mm f1.8G as my main theme is Street Portrait beside the low lighting in the Wet Market required the wide aperture.
