The countdown continues. The picture of the day was made at Merdaka square in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I think it's a nice street photo. Only thing I don't like is the green garbage bin which is seen at the bottom right - apart from that I think the photo is great. You can even see the smoke from the cigarette if you look carefully.
About Merdaka Square
The Dataran Merdeka (or Merdeka Square) is located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is situated in front of the Sultan Abdul Samad Building. It was here the Union Flag was lowered and the Malayan flag hoisted for the first time at midnight on August 31, 1957. Since then, Dataran Merdeka has been the usual venue for the annual Hari Merdeka Parade (National Day Parade).
