Thanks, Pete.



Thanks, Etienne. Still has to go deep into the forest to find them. Many Malaysian photographers still haven't seen these :)



Thanks, Ian.

No doubt there's work involved but if I go deep into a forest here, I'm likely to find a few plastic bags and some naked people around a car :p lol

:D...anyway, the nearest forest is only about 45 minute drive from where I stay. I go check out different spots from time to time. My other favorite spot is about 2 hr's drive away. I also fly to Borneo about once a year for a short macro holiday, like 4D/3N.
