Are these old ? The sepia looks appropriate. Nice shots Rod.

These are the old photos of Penang, Malaysia. It would bring back old momeries for those who live here, tourists who came here in the early 50's to 70's, expats as well as war veterans especially from Britain and Australia, and, not fogetting the U S Navys. Many would have been to Penang would find these photos interesting. My present of love to all my dear tabblo friends.

the sepia gives that "tempo doeloe" (olden days) feel. it's like being in an old mysterious 1950s thriller :)
