Hijriah 1430

Wishing all Muslims Selamat Tahun Baru Hijriah...

Early Bird

An early Sunday.

Nearly at the end of the year, a time to reflect for most of us. I dug deep in my dry box and found me old macro lens, SIGMA 105mm f2.8. It's been a while using so I let lose around the garden very early morning capturing traces of the heavy downpour from last night.

Malam Berbedak.

Salam Aidilfitri

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir Batin...........

1058 -2008

1058 -2008. The majestic landmark with its golden dome dominating the bandar's sky turns 50.

This was taken 2 months back. Today the bamboo scaffolds have gone to reveal a new shining gold.

Mooncakes & Lanterns

Colours from the first day celebration of the mooncake festival in Bandar. The colourful lanterns entry on display were pretty crafty and colourful from panda to dolphin. Like every year the main event of the nite is the Chinese Opera show.

Lazy

I didn't have to go through sandy beaches or trek up hill to take this shot. This is a view from my window.

September is here again. Ramadhan falls in September again. Just before the fasting month had a chance to stop for tea at this new Deli.

Selamat Berpuasa to all Muslim around the globe....

Heart of Borneo Challenge

400 cyclist participated in HSBC Heart of Borneo Challenge, a 133km journey which started from KB to Serasa beach.
'HoB is a cross border conservation initiative involving Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia. The initiative aimed to preserve 220,000 sq km of pristine forest and create a more sustainable use of its forestry resources.'

It was a scorching hot day!

Finally

Finally. That was the word on everyone's mind or said; when these two decided to make it official. As a dear friend, very much involved and being a photographer in their big day , it all makes it meaningful and easier to take a snapshot of their big day.
My final post on the wedding, some randoms from the vows, dinner and the bride's first dance at the after-party........

888 Updated

Once upon a time, in land above the sky at Kota Batu, Emperor Wuei Chua marry the beautiful Empress Priscilla Boyd with a traditional tea ceremony. The Emperor ordered 8 warriors to carry the bride in a jewel decorated red sedan to his palatial court. The bride wore specially embroided red chinese silk costume adorned with white gold dragons, a symbol of prosperity, handmade by 888 seamstress. All Chua's and Boyd's all over the world came to celebrate the happy union together with a rock & roll celebration and free flow...

Officially. On this auspicious day. Congratulations to my two favorite persons; Pris & Wuei..

Sit Still

Having a semi-slow day;
Sit still and silently take in the golden sunset. Listen to the water massaging your feet. The soothing sound of the waves. The beautiful sky. The cool wind against your face. Breath in. Release. It only takes a minute....

Feeling Beaches

The sun, the sand, the clouds, the beach, the waves. We have top class beaches here. No people, no disturbances, so peaceful. A good place to get away from it all and reflect.
