*Pulau Ketam*

Pulau Ketam, literally translated, means "crab island". It is a small island located off the coast of Klang. Pulau Ketam is the best opportunity for visitors to witness and experience the unique lifestyle of fishermen. The "floating houses" that come to view as visitors approach the island is a sight to awe any city slickers. Perching casually on long wooden stilts, these dwellings are suspended about one to ten (1-10) metre above sea level.

I like very much this gallery with its interesting captures and compositions, whenever I visit your galleries I do rest a bit longer in the crab island. You always get my vote for your lovely work.
