Kek Lok Si Lighting in year 2010

After a gathering, we went to Kek Lok Si, as SP knew the lighting ceremony fall on today (Feb 7 2010). Thanks to SP :D

We reached there about 9pm. There were no big crowd, can find parking easily. On our way up, we saw two non-Chinese photographer walking down hill with their tripod.

These are all typical shot, no time to take creative shot :)



The first entrance.











The light was off around 9.30 am, just when KH and SP about to press the shutter button, too bad. We have no chance to reach Guan Yin statue at all before the light switched off :p Have to come on other day then :)
