Hillside Hut

Hillside Hut
Even before we arrived at Mount Bromo on our first day there, we were already stopping our transport numerous times just to get off to admire and capture the scenery. This hut sat opposite the place I shot “Golden Lollipop”. The silhouette of the hut set against the interesting profiles of the trees caught my attention.

The original shot of this was in colour. There were some infra-red photography enthusiasts among our group who went to town with the subject material available in the area (with custom-modified 20Ds for IR). Currently, I don’t think I will ever bear to customize any of my DSLRs for IR (the customization is permanent), so I’ll have to make do with this post-Photoshop, faux infrared version :P.

Nostril Art

Nostril Art
Mother Nature sure has her unique way of sculpturing the Earth. I wonder what was in her mind when she decided to sculpt this pair of nostril-like depressions in the Savana hills in the Tenggar Caldera? 🙂

The Sky’s Alive!

The Sky's Alive!
Taking a break from the Javanese wedding pictures (not everyone’s cup of tea judging from the lack of responses/feedback :P)…

This an even wider view of the clouds dancing to the setting sun over Ceromo Lawang (see the previous posts here and here). I simply love the unusual cloud formations as well as the lighting! Dad has got a different interpretation of the same scene here, captured with his Leica Digital Modul-R. Sometimes, I feel that the beauty of photography is seeing the different interpretations that can be derived from the same subject material. The difference is in what the mind’s eye see.
