New meaning of blog

To be honest, I don't like the format of this blog I can't group things, unlike my friendster blog. I can even add new catagory there

That's the reason I rarely update this blog of mine. I almost forgot my user account and password.

I think it's time to change my Blog name, and the purpose of having it. It's no longger story of my life. Cause I didn't tell much of if in this blog.

I haven't decided yet, but I'll find something else to fill this site.

Left to right, top to bottom, Okky, David, Bayu, Riza, Mahdi. Bent down so the waterfall can be seen 

David and me. far back near the top of the waterfall. 

Left to right: Riza and Bayu, at higher place. If you see Bayu is a litle scared, It's because the stones are slippery 

Dewi, Santi and Christine. enjoying their time under the waterfall. Halfway before the finished point.

Second group arrive at the rocks barrier.  

Thinking of landscape photography, All looks well focused. but seems dull. I really need to learn about composition 

Same place, same guys, different pose. 

All the guys, but me. at the starting point 

The whole group. At the travel agent's office 

Tree girls who joined us to the rafting. Left to right: Santi, Dewi, Christine. 

I'm in the red boat. Too bad the resolution was too small. 

David, moments after he'd finished taking pictures of us :D  

Guess What!! Shaky hands :D but it creates funny seahorses shape. So I thought, what the heck, just upload it. 

Street in front of Discovery Shopping Mall.
What is it with me and lights? Well two things, first, it’s easy to create impressive photo. All you have to do is get the camera a steady place and open the shutter long enough so all lights can be captured. Second, being a novice, it’s important to know your limits. I didn’t use a tripod to shot, so I had to squat, and my elbows were on my knees. The Pizza Hut sign is the proof.

Moon behind thin clouds. Taking this picture was more dificult. shutter must be opened long enough to be able to capture the light reflected be the clouds. I held the camera for 12 seconds, (I had to use 10 seconds timer) 

Shooting the moon. What's the challenge? Steady hands. Without a tripod, taking this picture was really exhausting, since the zoom was set to maximum. 

Sunset in kuta. f/2.8, shutter 1/640 obviously distance doesn't matter. I used auto for this shot, with curve edit in photoshop to enhance the contrast. 

Macro, a better one I believe. This is a flower of a wheat at the hotel. f/2.8, I think it's best. shutter 1/100, because It's in an open shade. No flash. 

Macro, a flower at Jamie's window. f/8. I should have used f/3.2 instead. Focal lenght 21.2 shutter 1/1000 ISO 100 

First Blog

This is my first blog....
I don't have a diary, do what can I put here?
dunno... but seems It's nice to have a place
where we can share ideas and stories.

So... for now, let's just add one mail.
Who knows I might enjoy this.

Another view of the Paradise Hotel. Black n white color, just to be different. (actually I tried to get the tips of all tree looked white)

Macro, back then I didn’t know the difference of f/8 and f/2.8. This was taken with f/8 to reduce exposure and get a blurry background (what a fool, no way with f/8). shutter was 1/50 to get extra light.

Another pool view of the hotel, the opposite side

Daniel, my roommate during Nyepi (Seclusion day in Bali)

Pool view of Paradise Hotel in Seminyak. We stayed in this hotel for 2 days during Nyepi.

Tired..(well it's 11 PM when I took this photo)
