Arrow That is not a rocket ship

It might look like a rocket ship, but it's not. This is the 'Millenium Monument' located in Putrajaya. Just next to it (*behind if viewed from this angle) is the recently launch 'Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque'.

MM & MTMZA day

This day shot was taken last June while the night shot was taken just last night from a higher location.

MM & MTMZA Night

A beam of light goes round and round like a lighthouse on top of the tower.

Aww! I thought it was my rocket parked in the curbside..lol..

this is a lovely view..it was nice of you to get the daytime and night shot for comparison..i prefer the second one though..you captured the monument’s beam beautifully..the light also enhanced the detail of the mosque as well as the bridge from the background..

tnx..tnx..dont go wandering late at night..

Both are great images, but I really like the second one - the night shot. Nicely done.

That's not it. I think your rocket has been towed for illegal parking. lol
This place is just wonderful for those who loves night photography. All the buildings and bridges were beautifully lit up. You can see more from my older posts.
