I am hoping to post something new here soon as I get settled in at my new premises 🙂

The above was taken at Savana in the Tenggera Caldera area on our visit to Bromo. Dad has an almost similar version here although his was taken at a slightly earlier time and at a different focal length (and hence the different “telephoto compression” effect). The difference in colour temperature is also markedly obvious due to the different processing characteristics we have utilised for each of our images.

Rounding off the series on the evening skies at Ceromo Lawang, this is the (almost) ultra-wide version of the unusual cloud patterns that I posted here, here and here. I like the way the wide-angle has distorted the horizon, turning it into a curve instead of the usual straight, level horizon.

Apologies for the lack of updates as I have been busy preparing for my upcoming customary wedding…

One of the difficulties with taking candid pictures of a group of people walking/trekking is to avoid overlapping the figures. I find that allowing the figures to separate makes for a much cleaner picture. However, it is not easy to do so as I have no control over these individuals (it’s a candid shot after all!). I was particularly happy when I managed to catch a relatively clean one of these people trekking down Mount Bromo 🙂
