*As usual, those pics of which costumes that I don’t know, it’ll be without captions! Hard to concentrate on what the emcee was saying AND take the pics lah! Something I have to concentrate on in the future! ;) *

    the first pic is not Lotud costume…I guess that one is either the costume from Dusun Ranau or Tambunan..

    Very beautiful! I stumbled onto your blog through PPP and just wanted to let you know that your photos are lovely! Can’t wait for the next installment.

    With over 30 indigenous groups - I’m sure not many can tell the difference between one Sabahan traditional costume to another.

    I am also surprised to learn the first picture is of the Kadazandusuns of Ranau - never thought that they have their own distinctive variation.

    joan, okay caption edited. thanks! Eh, Sony a100 pun ok what! U just have to know how to use the Manual mode! And play around with the shutter speed dial! Oh, and join Sony Alpha (Msia) Club! You can get lotsa useful tips there on using Alpha cameras from other users! ;) I’m pretty active there as well. See u there! :)

    Tin Ma’am, that’s an interesting nick! :) And thanks for dropping by! Do come by again! :)
