Setting Out To An Offering

Even after many visits, I am still fascinated by Lake Bedugul, Bali, Indonesia. This picture was captured after taking “Another Nice Day”. We were fortunate to have the Balinese to dress up in proper costumes for our photographic outing at the annual event of the Nusantara Photographic Club, Indonesia in October 2003. The lighting was beautiful and the colours were gorgeous for this particular occasion. Some may say that the lighting is too harsh, but I think it is superb, providing good details in the shade.

Rainbow

“At the end of the rainbow, there is a pot of gold” — This was the forth time that I came across such a magnificent rainbow scene. I have not actually reached the other end of the rainbow though, therefore I still haven’t found my real pot of gold yet although witnessing the scene itself is already more than what money can buy 😉

It was indeed a rare occasion for me to be able to capture this rainbow scene on film at the “The Three Sisters” of the Blue Mountains in Sydney in September 2003. The breeze was very strong and the temperature was low in the early morning hours. Although I had to sacrifice hours of sleep in order to arrive at the location early, I find that being able to witness and capture stunning images of such natural phenomenon is in itself a joy. That in essence, is the ultimate reward of photography!
