Jame' Asr Mosque

One of my most memorable photo outings was the one with The Sifu, none other than Mr David Cheok. He led us, or shall I say dragged us up to a steep rock hill somewhere in Subok. With all the photography equipment we had to carry, the climb and later the descent was not an easy one for a flatland person like me. But I tell you, it was worth the time, David said "when the going gets tough, the pictures gets going". He was right! One of my favourites is this view of the Jame' Asr Mosque at sunset taken from the hill. I'm not really good in photo post-processing but I thought I'd just share it.

The mosque was built sometime in the mid or late 80s to commemorate 25 years of His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah's reign and it can accomodate up to 3500 worshippers in the main prayer hall.
