Some photographs stay with us not because they are technically perfect, but because they capture a moment that is impossible to recreate. A few months ago, I spotted a Gardenia bread delivery man walking under the blazing Malaysian afternoon sun. Instead of carrying the empty plastic bread basket normally, he had lifted it over his head, using it as a makeshift sunshade. It was one of those wonderfully human moments - practical, slightly amusing, and instantly relatable to anyone who has experienced our tropical heat.
