 Penang is now part of UNESCO's World Heritage Cities Programme. the capital city, George Town, has the most number of pre-war buildings in all of South East Asia which are still intact. That is why, the island is known as Penang Heritage City. George Town (not "Georgetown"; as most people tend to spell it), shows the world that its heritage buildings, art and culture can co-exist alongside modern development.

Beautiful shot. I love the colors and the architecture. The TV antennas are cool, too.

Neat looking building. The straight on view works good with all the busyness.

Nicely composed. I think a higher angle would have helped -- less ground would have allowed the antennae (pl?) to clear the frame.

Nice colorful head on shot. Nice details. I think cropping out the antennas, down to the roof line may have help, but thats just me.

Not that I'm saying something you don't know already, but amazing colors! Looks like a naif painting or something!
