Nice shot Shirox! Bringing the levels down a little will improve the overall contrast effect. :)
How was the Mersing trip? I intended to join in on Saturday but was held back by family matters. Noticed it was very cloudy in Singapore on Saturday but cleared up a little by Sunday morning. I expect should be better in mersing.
