This travel photo was taken in Kuta Beach, Bali. I love this photo as the deep blue sky and vibrant setting evening sun had created such a beautiful scene for photo hobbyist like me. Kuta Beach has one of the most beautiful beach that I’ve ever been to and it reminds me of Patong Beach of Phuket. Both beach towns have many identical characteristics such as long sandy beach, happening nightlife and also shopping heaven. Read my series of posts on my travel experience in Bali for more interesting stories of Kuta Beach.

Again, this travel photo wallpaper calendar is free to download from here and there are more wallpaper calendars for other months coming up next.

Do you fancy eating lobster? A lot of people do and all of those many seafood restaurants in Patong are selling lobster. There are 2 types of lobster displayed for patron’s selection: dead or alive! Dead lobsters are off course much cheaper. Another factor deciding the selling price is the restaurant. Some are selling dead lobster for 180THB per 100 gram while some are offering 120THB per 100 gram.

Lobster display

This is a photo taken on the lobster display counter in front of Savoey (our Safari Beach Resorts‘ famous seafood restaurant). Look at the price tag. Dead lobsters are selling for 200THB per 100 gram! So 1 medium sized lobster should cost you around 2000THB or USD60! We didn’t try any there as we prefer eating prawns more than lobster.

15 days of Chinese lunar new year celebration is finally over. The Chinese Valentine’s Day or YuanXiao (元宵) was the last celebration on the 15th Day or yesterday. Everything is back to normal today. Shopping malls stopped playing back New Year songs. All new year decorations around town have been dismantled. I’m reluctantly back to work now! :) As my life will go on, a last piece of photo taken during the new year celebration is posted here as a conclusion to my celebration.

Blossom n Family

As usual, I took the shot with Nikon D60 and Nikkor 35mm lens. Firing a direct fill flash helped balancing those shadow areas nicely and 1/200s fast sync shutter speed proved to be useful to freeze their action. To avoid my wife from murmuring me, I’ve added some soft skin effect to hide some of the blemishes! Haha! :)

I love this portrait. It was captured in Genting Highland during CNY this year. A strong feel of Chinese New Year with Cherry blossom as background. Smiles from both Jean and Chloe’s face look wonderful to me. Hope you like it too. That’s it for the Year of Tiger! – Travel Feeder, the ultimate travel photo blog RA9WE4S9YPVR

Sounds like a devotee? Yes. Temple after temple on the 5th Day of Chinese New Year (年初五). We went to TianHou Temple, the biggest temple in KL after brunch (Malaysian slang: Breakfast and Lunch together!), and visited the Taiwan’s FuoGuangShan (佛光山) initiated DongZen Temple after dinner. It was actually planned by me. If you have [...]

Often enough we are relying on our camera’s intelligent to meter the scene for appropriate exposure. While the technology advancement has made our digital cameras so clever that they get it right on the spot most of the time, there are sometimes, under some tricky lighting condition, our camera metering can be fooled by the [...]

China Town, or Petaling Street in Kuala Lumpur is the traditional hub for Chinese New Year countdown every year.

If you come to Malaysia this year, one of the top 10 places to visit in Malaysia would have to be Melaka, the UNESCO world heritage city. When you are in Melaka, you must drop by (or you would definitely be passing by) the Christ Church, the red Spanish architecture. Behind it on top of [...]
