18 days to say good bye to 2011 .. but base on the recent weather .. I almost can say … my landscape gear need to be rest for the moment .. the weather just bad for any outing , most of the time we just have grey but nothing …
thanks Jamal & Ali to bringing us there for wonderful trip 2010 Oct … and I promise to make a re-visit there again but not fail to do so as 2011 just too many plans …
a place that good for landscape, human interest …. etc .. and my previous sharing HERE
people here are friendly, view here is gorgeous, food is good too …. so have to start plan one trip there again on 2012 ….
a place famous with rice terraces – Jatiluwih… a place I missed and will plan
to re-visit very soon in future …. an appetizer as our Guide (Agung claim) …
I love to see how the water filling up the paddy field and it will reflect whatever on

but we just have to try our best …. one of the happy shot I have little further to the temple
a famous Bali tourist spot where it will full with tourist while sunset time …
a place with few beautiful cliffs but this place full with naughty monkeys where it will take your belonging and sometime we need to use banana , food to exchange (some one there will ready to help you with some $$$) … but not every time it work, they may took yours spec and run away 😀 … so we just have to be-careful.
from one end to another end is ~20-30 minutes walk …. the center temple always full with tourist … and monkeys as well …
on our way to stop for sunset , the sky is so clear
I spent 7d6n at Bali, Indonesia for photography outing…
a tired trip as we travel most of the tourist spots and non tourist area to find
out more about this beauty Island …. thanks for our Guide (Agung for brining
us around to what we call photographer interest places)… he know what
photographers (Landscapers want and need) , and we managed to visit
1. Kintamani area round the Mount Batur and Batur Lake
2. Ubud area which include riceTerrace Ceking Tegalalang, village with paddy field and
Sanur Beach
3. a Old Palace belong to Puri Kesiman (Agung Grandfather was King and owner of
this)
4. Kuta – Blue Point Beach, Uluwatu and Jimbaran
5. Jatiluwih – not just the main tourist area but he brought us to few “appetizer”
spots (think most of Landscape photographer will love this place a lot)
6. Tanah Lot – beautiful place with so much of tourist
7. Serengan Island – beautiful place but not open for tourist
8. Seminyak Beach – not really a plan destination but due to traffic he brought us
to this gem beach ..
I will be sharing pictures for above trips for coming weeks, and also slowly
share some info on respective place …
Let start with Mount Batur, a cooling and
beautiful places… while we step in hotel the view immediate make us WOW … at
night while we look at the sky millions of stars are up there , Batur Lake is a
good place with some human interest and beautiful lake view …
The hike to the Mount Batur is moderate, but the view along the hike simply amazing …
the stars, Milky way were like standing side by side with me … the sunrise view
with Mount Rinjani is simply awesome . But need to have local guide to bring up
~Rp200-300k per person and ~2-3hours hike for slow people like me.
this was 1st panorama capture while we left our thing into our room and walk out to the hotel walking path …
