Description This photograph was taken in the shadow of the Petronas Towers (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia), which until 2003 were the tallest buildings in the world These 18 and 19 year old students were enjoying an afternoon off of school. I saw their magazine and wanted to ask for a photo but continued walking past, not wanting to bother or embarrass them. But then I changed my mind. When I returned to ask for the photograph, they were happy to say yes.
