Cameron Highlands II, a photo from Pahang, West

Photographer's Note

Another view of the famous tea plantations of Cameron Highlands. This was taken early in the morning. I like the mood created by the softness of this shot so I left it as is.

Cameron Highlands has developed into a favored getaway among honeymooning couples. The cool, fresh air on the highlands is also a retreat for city dwellers who want to retreat temporarily from the noise and pollution in the city.
The drive time from Kuala Lumpur is about three and a half hours. It is a 295 km drive. The quickest route is by the North-South Expressway turning in near the town of Tapah. From Tapah you will hit the long winding road (about 60km) to Cameron Highlands. Driving up to Cameron Highlands is a pleasure in itself, as many interesting stops along the way can be made. You can take a short break at the Kuala Woh Forest Recreation Park. There are picnic areas and a hot spring.

PP notes: Levels, contrast, saturation, NI.

This is a fantastic capture you made. I love the overall scence of the picture. It seems to me it is a very peaceful place that everyone dreams to escape from this hectic world. Good job Mike. Sothy
