Georgetown Rickshaw

Rickshaws are a common sight in Georgetown (and scattered throughout the metropolitan areas of Penang. Can’t actually say I remember ever seeing anyone riding in one, though they did seem to be popular places for old me to kick back for an afternoon nap. I probably took thirty to forty shots of the town’s rickshaw population . . . I liked this one because of the wall and that it doesn’t immediately scream ‘Rickshaw” to you.

Georgetown, Malaysia

The sidewalks of Georgetown are quite narrow and most meander though arched overhangs like these. The paint colors used are vivid . . . and left to peel and crumble, a photographer’s dream: cool colors and unusual textures. Signs are often in Chinese (or maybe this is Malaysian?) and Georgetown’s locals seemed to be predominately Islamic. Often this narrow walkway has been turned into a dining area for a local food stall, which means as a pedestrian you need to walk out into the roadway to continue your journey.

Georgetown Window

More vivid colors and peeling paint. Lucky you, I’m only posting a few of the window pictures I took in Georgetown. One of my addictions.

Damen

Meet Damen. You’ll notice I don’t often post photos of friends, but in this case the colors were too hard to pass by. Plus I threatened to post his photo on my website. LOL. Damen is from Sumatra (Indonesia) and we spent my one full day in Penang wandering about the streets of Georgetown taking photos. Fortunately he was a bit of a camera buff, too (or it gets real boring).
