-Sanur | day 1 the morning part 2

*lots of pics today :)

7.53 a.m. : pick the camera back up and start shooting again




Photobucket






8.09 a.m. : saw a dead dog awash the shore




Photobucket





bali really is indeed also a land of so many dogs
even the sea must have a few of them

9.11 a.m. : fired the last shot at Sanur Beach and headed back to the hotel




Photobucket





*my very first morning at Bali had been really quite disappointing
randomly shooting around
sitting by the beach watching people
shooting whatever i found interesting
but nothing that spectacular at all : /

-Sanur | day 1 the morning part 1

and so i tried hard to sleep
but couldn't
the exciting were really there...
and i could barely sleep
fell asleep at around 3+ finally and woke up at 4 to get myself prepared
and that was the time that i thought i heard sound of the rain
went straight to the balcony
nope
just the wind
and as the time further went by
the sound of the wind got further stronger
and that was when i had the fear
that it'll actually rain

--

throughout my entire bali trip, i had kept a time to time note to myself on what's happening, so here, i present to you too, exactly what i felt and what was happening in its timely manner.

4.45 a.m. : head down to the car park to wait to be fetched by the driver. he's not early. he's no where around. it had began to drizzle a while ago. my worst nightmare is beginning to come true. remained positive though. sunrise after a rain and strong wind can be really nice at times.

5.00 a.m. : drizzling stopped walked down again to check if Bang Bagus, my driver, has arrived on time as promised.

5.05 a.m. : no sign of him, walked back to the room to do a video of me entering the hotel room










5.12 a.m. : decided to just head down and wait for him there.

5.14 a.m. : Bang Bagus arrived. a little introduction and off we head to my very first location. the drizzle starts again as we headed off.

5.30 a.m. : reached Sanur Beach. rained heavily like mad.









5.50 a.m. : i'm told that this is the first time in this month that it had rained in the morning. completely devastated.

6.00 a.m. : no sign of the rain stopping. feeling super cold. darn me for not packing a jacket with me.

6.05 a.m. : looked around, dark clouds everywhere. just hoping the rain will stop so at least i can still get a few shots before it gets brighter.

6.10 a.m. : much brighter now, lesser wind. examining my view points. no sunrise today :(

6.15 a.m. : fired the first shot of the day despite the drizzle.

6.22 a.m. : finally the rain stopped ! begin to shoot around !

-Bali | the very first night

so, 19 july
i set off




Photobucket




and oh
anyway
i bought a d10
the new canon powershot that can do underwater
for the trip
haha




and so yeah
tried this camera throughout the entire of this trip
so far
i think the result not so bad
haha
but dunno yet
haven't got into the night shot
and haven't really begin serious editing




Photobucket




singapore - bali flight is a 2 hours flight
forgot to buy a mag before i leave
so i was all left with playing the ipod touch during the entire trip
1 hour++ into the flight
the touch came out
20% batt power left
-.-"
worms at the ipod touch seriously consume power like a pig
so then i shoot around outside the window lor




Photobucket




then not long after that
the sunset time came
i was like
wtf !
i'm heading towards the east !
if i'm heading towards the north
then it'd be just nice !
the sun will be at my left side !
so now the sun is right behind me





Photobucket





but then
seeing this kinda sky kinda make me :D :D :D
yes ~~!!
i'm greeted with sun a nice sunset !
though can't really see it properly coz it should be right behind me
but judging from the sky around it
it should be one hell of a sunset !


then after
sky got kinda dark
haven't even arrive yet -.-"
so i went toilet




Photobucket







and snapped off a pic
haha
not long after that
i arrived d

got fetched by a cousin there
then we headed to his place
as he offered his place for me to bump into during my stays there
but then
as i felt
my trip is gonna be a trip that'll require me to leave at unsound hours
i've decided to book a hotel instead
so as to not disturb people la
so after his place
we went for dinner
and right after that is the hotel that i stay at
stayed at Sanur




Photobucket







Janur Garden Hotel
quite a room for its price i think
it's just like ridiculous that i kinda have to top up an extra Rp. 50,000 to have a room with warm water
thinking that i'll be leaving early in the hours of the day
warm shower is something i'll definitely need
as i is one who is afraid of the cold
then
got myself settled
and went to bed
and try to sleep d




Photobucket






kk...more tomorrow d

H+W

well, last night was the night shoot
today is kinda more of the actual shoot
so here's another preview
i'm so darn tired

god
