Back in a Flash

Wow, it has been a long time and some have asked me if my blog is dead. Indeed it was dead and i hope that i can revive it again and i hope to keep it alive. Here's a pic to start things off and this is dedicated to the rainy season during a durian season! Ggrrr!

This is taken with my nikkor AFD 80-200mm F2.8

Looking to the skies.

People often ask where to find colours? I would just say, just look up. These sunset pics came as a very special gift from God. It was a very gloomy and rainy day, then suddently there was a burst of colours in the sky. Quickly ran to the roof and snap away. One of the most beautiful i have seen.

1) Really rich colours. (no post processing other than resizing n watermark)

2) A closer look at the clouds

3) A scene in between both worlds. The left side of the city was raining and the right side was enjoying a nice sunset.

It was a rainy and very windy night. The full moon was up and the clouds where moving so rapidly. Tried to capture the movement with long shutter but i didn't had a tripod since i took it back home last time around. Nearly passed out coz i had to hold my breath a lot!

Sawadeekap!

Finally here are the pics of my trip to Bangkok last Febuary. Was so lazy to sort out the 1.5k pics i took during that trip. Just finished doing that last month and here are some for your enjoyment. Again, i wasn't 100% pleased with the pics as i was enjoying the trip too much. My wife and I really love Bangkok. The food is sooooo delicious and there are so many places to visit.

Land Of Tax Free Chocs and Alcohol

Went for a much awaited trip to Langkawi with some church friends. We planned this trip months before and it turn out to be really really fun. Lots of food (juck food that is), jokes and nonsense. Wasn't 100% inspired/focused on my photography as i took more pics of us being silly so was kinda disappointed with the landscapes below.

1) Oriental Village

2) Cable Car

3) Tanjung Rhu - The sunset was disappointing so we too some crazy jumping pics. We had a nice time chilling there since we got there way to early.
