DP Theme Day: Bridges
Hello! Here I am for theme day. The past month has been crazy but all is good. This is my contribution to our theme. The bridge that links the famous KLCC Twin Towers. The bridge is open to visitors 6 days a week (closed to the public on Monday) for a paltry sum of RM8/USD2.22/EUR1.78. Cheap and cheerful. Situated on the 44th floor, you get a grand view of the towers upclose and the spectacular view of Kuala Lumpur. That is, if you come visit when the Indonesians aren't burning the Sumaterans forrests and clogging our air with the muggy haze. This is a major problem for us.
I had wanted to go up and take a shot from the bridge but I kept finding myself there on Mondays. Oops. So, the next best thing, take a shot from ground level and twist the perspective. Hope you find it appealing.
December 1st is World Aids Day. All I want to say is, Play Safer.
We have 122 cities participating today. Go have a look at all our bridges. Have a great weekend everyone.

Well you are the first off the blocs today [except it's tomorrow for me still] - I'll be doing permalinks to the bridge posts when I post mine later.
Apa Khabar?
You have become the one a month friend! LOL. Actually, earlier tonite, saw your friend Karen performing at the Opening of the Singapore Writers Festival, then suddenly remembered you.
Happy theme day and what a great interpretation of the theme. This is indeed a bridge just not one I would have thought of ... Also, kudos for including the World Aids Day symbol in your photo.
Wonderful! Even if I almost feel sick looking to your pic! And happy to read you again.
Great to see you back Edwin. super photo. Great theme and also so glad you included World Aids Day in your commentary.
We feel so tiny when looking your pic.
Magnifique interprétation du thème.
Good to hear from you again, even if it's only one day a month! Interesting choice; we call them skyways here in MN, bridges that link buildings to one another.
I've visited KL once a few years ago, saw the Patronas Towers & was agog. A shame they didn't do trips up to the top.
that's a really one of a kind bridge . great ! when i was in kl , unfortunately i couldn't find time to go up there so i also have the picture from the ground level ... hahaha . only 8 rm ? i thought it's more expensive !
wow! great choice for the theme...and the angle is perfect:)
I do like that angle! :)
I like the way you twisted it! :-) Happy Theme Day!
I do like the way you took this.
I also like the angle! Apa kabar Edwin?
Love your photo and wow - the 44th floor! I'm getting vertigo just from this perspective.
Interesting bridge - so many nice photos, today. This one connecting people from one building to another. I bet there are some spectacular views to be seen from this walkway bridge.
Great photo! Really gives a good perspective between the two towers.

Bridge must have amazing view.
How are you doing, Eddie.
How hight is it? It must be a great view from there. I hope it';s not the glass floor.
Hi Edwin, lways a pleasure to see you on our monthly "catch up" . Maybe the Bali summit about Kyoto and climate change will help sort the predeliction for burining stuff out? And at last we have a givt willing to ratify Kyoto :-)
I'd love to get there and make some shots from the inside.....Very nice angle.
Hi Edwin - thanks for a fab blog and some stunning pics. The perspective of the bridge at the Twin Towers is indeed unusual - well done!
Greetings from Cape Town,
Pierre
Wow, what a pic!
Impressive bridge you got there!
Hope all is well with you.
I'm dizzy looking at this shot.
Quite good too! Cheers!
Very nice photo on the twin towers.
Well taken!
