George Town city from the air

Aerial view of the heartbeat of the Pearl of The Orient - a nickname for the island of Penang.

 

Shot from an ATR 72-600 Firefly Airlines flight from Kuala Lumpur to Alor Setar, at a height between 15 to 20 thousand feet.

 

The blue cast is probably due to the strong levels of naturally occurring ultraviolet (UV) rays reflected off the sea.
