THE GREAT MALAYSIAN FLOOD OF 2021
Malaysia suffered its worst flooding caused by incessant torrential rains on December 17 and 18.
image sources — The New Straits Times and Berita Harian36 hours of sustained heavy rainfall
More than a month's worth of rain fell that day in most parts of the country.Thanks for the prayers and emails of concern, pallies. We are fortunate that the area where we live was unaffected.
The Countryside and the Flowers are so pretty. But the food made me hungry. Thank you, for sharing your photos with us. May you have a Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteHow like fireworks that one flower looks! Wonderful shots. Thanks for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2022/01/some-seasonal-memories.html
ReplyDeleteLove your flower and sky shots - amazing
ReplyDeleteHappy new year 2022 Veronica Lee, lets hope a new year is much better than 2021.
ReplyDeleteYummy on the food. I've not had breakfast yet. You made my stomach growl.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots, but the flooding. Awful. Prayers for all those affected.
Have a fabulous day and week, Veronica. ♥
Your skywatch is always so beautiful, Veronica.
ReplyDeleteI like your blue hydrangea too!
Such wonderful photos, you like in a beautiful place. I'm sorry about the floods though, that horrible for everyone.
ReplyDeleteThat flooding is scary, all my solidarity with the people who have suffered and are suffering as a result of that terrible event.

What fab photos loved the food too feel sad for the flood though good caoptures
ReplyDeleteHave a gallimaufrytastic week 👍
Floods have been a huge problem in Canada too. It is devastating to watch people lose their homes and all the mementos of a lifetime. Life will never be the same for them again. I am sure it is no different in Malaysia. It reinforces that we are all one.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos fo the sky and flowers.
ReplyDeleteThose flood waters are horrible.
I'm happy that you were safe.
I am so glad you were spared from the flooding. Hopefully things are starting to return to normal, hang in there! ❤
ReplyDeleteBello cielos desde tu balcón. Bellas flores me dio pena lo de las inundaciones. Te mando un beso

Hi Veronica. Sorry to say that I'd not heard about those awful floods that look quite frightening. I hope you and your loved ones stayed safe and well. here's wishing you a better and A Happy 2022.
ReplyDeleteMother nature has really taken a vengeful turn.. so sorry to hear about the flooding but happy to hear you were unaffected.
ReplyDeleteThose sky photos are stunning!
Hello Veronica Lee, I had read and seen photos of the devastating floods in Malaysia which sadly affected your countrymen. Good to read you and your family were safe and when I saw the aerial views I had wondered if they might be from your balcony.
ReplyDeleteThe skywatch views you post in the blog are amazingly beautiful and I was curious if you did any post-processing or not. Also I forgot how high your vantage is. but it certainly is higher than our own 5th floor viewpoint.
Wow, the floods looks bad. Glad to hear you are alright though.
ReplyDeleteI love Hydrangea's. I had a bunch of them around my house as a kid and I always loved their color.
Beautiful photos, Veronica. Your sky photos are stunning. Sorry to see all the flooding, hopefully people have recovered or are recovering. Wishing you a happy and healthy 2022.
ReplyDeleteThe photos of the Malaysian flood are really sad... I hope there will be less disasters and deaths all over the world in 2022...
ReplyDeleteOlá Veronica
ReplyDeleteFeliz Ano Novo, lindas fotos. As inundações são assustadoras, que Deus tenha misericórdia. Um forte abraço.
I enjoyed seeing your photographs, but sorry to read about the floods.

Happy New Year Wishes.
All the best Jan

Yikes, the flooding looks horrible. Glad to hear you weren't in the thick of that. Those skies look amazing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos you have compiled, one more beautiful than the other!
ReplyDeleteBut the pictures of the floods have scared me and make me sad, the climate is unfortunately going crazy and something like this happens more and more often...
I wish you all the best for the new year and stay healthy!

I'm so sad to see that flood, but architecture in Cathedral, photos od flowers and sunset are so beautiful.

ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about the flooding in Malaysia. The stained glass windows at the Church are so pretty. I'm wondering what the pink and white balls are? They look like cotton balls. The hydrangeas are such a lovely flower. My daughter has a big purple bush in her front yard. You have incredible sky views from your balcony. The skies are mysterious and beautiful. The chicken dish looks Yummy. I hope this new year brings you many good things.

Very sorry about the terrible flooding. All of the (other) pictures are so joyful -- I especially love your sky views -- what a nice place to call home! Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteWow -- what a collection. The Cologne cathedral -- so fabulous. And I especially loved that interesting chrysanthemum. I need to follow you so I don't miss things!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry didn't know of the floods. Hope alls well now. Stunning food and travel pictures, dear Vero. Hugs and love.
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness, stunning photography. The blossoms are gorgeous. You capture such detail. I would like to get a macro lens to be able to get very close details without trying to sneak up on butterflies and hummingbirds.
ReplyDeleteThose skies are so ominous and threatening and yet beautiful at the same time. Thankful you are safe and hoping your community is beginning to return to normalcy after the flooding. Stay safe.
