Caught during a rain-soaked Chinese New Year parade that took place in Solo City, Indonesia…

I had to scupper a trip to Eastern Europe at the very last moment because of the floods affecting the Danube River. Hence, it’s back to the shots that I took earlier on this year on my visit to Solo City, Indonesia. We had intended to visit Candi Cetho, a 15th century Javanese-Hindu temple after our visit to the tea plantation at Kemuning. We were side-trakced by some villagers who provided excellent moments for some candid photography. I caught this girl gazing intently as she alternated her curious gazes at us with her intense stare at the scenery behind us.

Another picture from the tofu factory in Solo City… The environment of the factory certainly had the right atmosphere for photography. Coming from obsessively-clean Singapore, I do wonder about the hygenine standards of the food produced here. I was certainly not too keen to eat tofu for lunch right after visiting this place!
