Trip To Kudat [The Tip Of Borneo]

Gongs.

I have no idea how long it took to make a gong this huge.
A very ambitious buffalo.
This is probably the nicest water puddle I've ever seen.
They make and sell beads here.

Finally at the tip of Borneo.

Long story short, we stopped by a few places on the way to Kudat which started at a gong making factory. We got ourselves a few souvenirs and saw some pretty large gongs. After that, we made our way to a bead making factory, bought a few things, and set out to a Longhouse where we had lunch prepared by the residents in the village. [Fried Fish, Vegetables, and Rice] yum!. They were more than happy to have visitors stop by. Feeling rather full, we said our goodbyes and continued the journey to the tip of Borneo. After hours of sitting in the car feeling a little sore and in serious need of a restroom, we reached our destination and we were treated to a view of the ocean which I dont think any certain word or any of the pictures I took there could have done it any justice.
when we were done taking in the view and some pictures, we had a drink at the cafeteria and started the long journey back home.

An Unexpected Visitor



Coming home after lunch I noticed my dog Chester, barking round the back of the house and upon close inspection I noticed he was barking at a monitor lizard[at least i think thats what it is]
that was hiding between some bushes and a drain.It was putting up a fight hissing and swishing its long tail to defend itself. I whipped up my camera and tried my best to get some shots of it :)

An evening on the beach









Spent monday evening at Tanjung Aru Beach trying to get some good photos. Sadly it was slightly hazy and not as much clouds as I would have wanted, but I guess it was okay :)

Sun Halo


This was taken last october right outside my house. I didnt have a lens wide enough to get a full view of the halo. Halo are mostly caused by ice crystals in cold cirrus clouds located high (5–10 km, or 3–6 miles) in the upper troposphere. The particular shape and orientation of the crystals is responsible for the type of halo observed. Light is reflected and refracted by the ice crystals and may split up into colors because of dispersion, similarly to the rainbow.

Dragon

Took this last Chinese New Year at my uncle's place :)

Weird Looking Tree


So I took this photo quite a few months back and I had mirrored the image on itself using photoshop to make it symmetrical.
