Since there is no category for street shooting, please allow me to share some of my selected latest street shots of Malaysia here. Any comment, criticism or feedback are welcomed with open arms.

great thread and some good photos enhance by brilliant titles/descriptions

Street photography is my favorite genre.
Great shots, and proof that not all street photography needs to be black and white.
Nice use of color.

Wow, very nice set. Sharp images and vibrant colors. I love location photography like this because it lets me "visit" places that I might not otherwise see. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks Thumper_6119, John P, Lawrence, Photogramps, TedG954 for your favourable comments.
Street shooting is relatively my new interest but the interest has grown steadily The advantage of street shooting is you need not be very concerned about the quality of light unlike landscape or architecture. You can do street shooting anytime, anyplace and under any weather condition.

Does satay have a peanut butter based sauce? For some reason that comes to mind.

Yes, precisely Lawrence. Satay is eaten with peanut sauce (not peanut butter) which tastes pretty spicy and salty and a little sweet.

Excellent street shooting! I love seeing talented street photographers, and you definitely have an eye for it. I love the work you've done with a wide angle lens. Very nice, my friend, very nice.

Thanks wreckdiver1321 for your positive comment. I prefer to shoot in colour perhaps being influenced by National Geographic shooters

Religious obligation - before Eid festival recently each muslim needs to pay alms during Ramadhan (fasting month) so as to enable the needy and the poor can afford to buy their basic need to celebrate and enjoy the Eid festival equally.

More street shots of Malaysia which I took yesterday at one of the oldest wet market in my area Petaling Jaya which is just outside Kuala Lumpur.
