My original idea was to base my picture on cells from science, but it evolved as I made it. When I was halfway done I noticed it was starting to look like a group of different colored tornadoes. So I went with that idea. What you are now looking at is the result of my idea change.
This is an old shot from January. These geese are, I think, Brent geese. Black and white, although the details aren't really visible here. The castle on the hill is Dryslwyn castle, which can be seen elsewhere in my stream.

Seri Negara came to existence as demonstration of political authority by the High Commissioner of Federated Malay State (FMS), Sir John Anderson (1904 - 1911), who planned to relocate the Resident General of FMS to a smaller accommodation and reserve Carcosa for FMS High Commissioners instead. The swap for Carcosa however, did not happen. A series of events that took place between 1910 to 1913 while the building was being constructed, namely the fall of rubber and the contractor's financial difficulties, pushed its completion pass Anderson's tenure. The title Resident-General was changed to Chief Secretary in November 1910to define the role of the position in relation to the High-Commissioner and the British Residents Chief Secretary Edward Brockman (1912-1920) continued to reside in Carcosa while the new Federal Lodge as Seri Negara was initially referred to served as the official accommodation for the Singapore based High-Commissioner during his brief visits to Kuala Lumpur.
