Launching of Nostalgia Series

Hi everyone,
I dedicated these series of nostalgic compositions to my family, the entire family from Maktok straight to her cicit-cicit.

Nostalgia is made up of two Greek roots ( nostos = returning home, and algos = pain/longing), to refer to "the pain a sick person feels because he wishes to return to his native land, and fears never to see it again". This neologism was so successful that people forgot its origin. lost time and place, usually located in the near past. Homesickness is often given as a synonym for nostalgia.

That is what I am feeling now. I feel homesick and always think about my roots and origin. I even sometimes think of the Government Quarters that we used to leave at Hospital Sultan Aminah if I am not mistaken the address is 1247 Hospital Quarters. But I will always remember 43 Jalan Harimau Bintang Taman Century. I even often dream of that house, that corner house almost on the top of the hill.

I am considering to take a few days off next month and wished to go back to Johor Bharu and capture photographs of places that I have been and raised such as Jalan Air Molek, Jalan Mariamah, Jalan Petri, Lido, Jalan Harimau Bintang, Hospital Quarters, Jalan Ah Fook, Jalan Sungai Segget,my schools just to name a few.


The objective of this segment is to capture all the forgotten photographs which is the link to the past for future generations to come. This is the only thing that I will passed over once I am gone.

So if there is any one of you who still have forgotten photographs in boxes and drawers, please sent it for digital conversion and new mastering so that it can be preserved.

Love you all. Bye.
