I believe these two were strangers. The guy to the left was trying to sell him (guy to the right) a watch I think? Or they were talking about some stuff. They kinda spotted me from far though, but didn't get any reactions. B&W'ed this one to make it look like one of those pictures spies would take from far of secret business deals , yeah I know lame, but don't you think so?
I guess the right guy is a tourist and the left one is a native Malaysian guy. Maybe the tourist has asked an address, and now the native one is asking about tourist's country !! :D

@Kami: You are right about the first sentence. Haha, nah, I saw the Malaysian trying to sell a watch to him. Then again maybe they could be talking about other stuff.
love it josh!

Interesting insights in your photos and thanks for you comments... FYI the "purple sky" in my photo was after a very severe thunderstorm...

@Elmoses-X: You're welcome, and thanks! Oh, it looked like you had a ND Grad or you PP-ed it..
The guy on the left said, "Let's go kick that photographers butt!" and the guy on the right just laughed. Then the guy on the left said, "Yes, we can take him, he's only this tall." The guy on the right laughed again, but he was really thinking, "hey, I like your shirt."

@Teresa: Haha, those were pretty random lines. But thanks for dropping by!
Good capture of the emotions. I like shots like this and b/w works well here.

@Mary Jane: Thanks Mary Jane! Appreciate that comment, simply said with few words but big meaning!
It works well, I like the crisp detail and the shallow DOF. it looks like a movie still.
