Day Break at Mount Penanjakan

Lip SengOctober 17, 2004

This was a view captured from Penanjakan lookout point, East Java, in 1992. The volcano that is in middle of the image puffing out a plume of smoke is the famous Mount Bromo. To date, two out of the three volcanos shown in this image are still active. A recent eruption of Mount Bromo in May 2004 killed one little boy (a tourist from Singapore), and injured many others that were visiting the area. At present, the area is temporary closed to tourists until further notice.

This slide won the Best Landscape Award (Photo Travel Section) of the 1993 Golden West International Salon, USA.

From a vantage point, I captured this fisherman having his early morning catch while I was out on a photographic trip in Bali in 1991. One of the characteristics and important elements of photographic art is to capture the spontaneous moment of an action. This is demonstrated precisely in this image. This image was a Medal Winner of the 22nd Hong Kong Camera Club International Salon held in 1992.

This is another version of an image of a terrace rice field that I captured in Bali during my first visit there in 1980. The main elements of the picture are the composition, lines and the colours. The slide won the FIAP Gold Medal of the Photo Travel Section of the 43rd Mississippi Valley International Salon held in 1990.
