deviantArt has just came up with new feature. It’s called dAportfolio and simply a great portfolio platform for all dA users. Hopefully in the future they’ll have more templates. There are only two of them.. but that’s enough for now.

When we’re talking about sunset in Bali, Tanah Lot is one of the place you have to visit.
These pics were taken using Canon EOS 5d, 17-40mm, with Gradual ND Filters.. then processed in Adobe Lightroom 2.4


I wasn’t expecting that food photography would be complicated. As I was browsing the web then i realized there are many techniques and equipment needed. These are the pics that i took using 1 off shoe flash in a modified softbox (580exII triggered by PT-04) and 1 slave flash.




Linline Production which based in Malaysia, brought this annual fiesta for the 2nd time to Sector Bar n Restaurant… and i was lucky that i manage to get spot on the front row. I don’t dance, but when I saw all the pros move their body.. i was really enjoying the show.



*phew havent really update this blog for a while. Last month i manage to shot a new driving range in Denpasar. This driving range has already had the soft opening on 21th February.. last month.. and the grand opening supposedly will be 21th March. It is located @ Bali Beach Golf Course, and unfortunately since it’s using the 9th hole, it open starting from 6:30pm
Below are the pics when they’re testing it.


When you love gambling and and live in Asia.. u must go to Macau. People saying that it look like a small Vegas. Well i’ve never been to Vegas, but there are so many casino in Macau that i believe the most people living in there are working in casino.
We were staying in The Venetian, and the hotel is hugeee. I’ve never seen hotel this big before. It filled with tons of shops, restaurants, and of course a big casino. It even has the man-made river which has gondolas just like in Venetia. Well it’s an unforgettable trip.




Sunny day in Madrid!! finally the first fine day during the whole trip.. It took another 5 hours by bus to get to Madrid.. from Valencia. We had lunch in restaurant full of meat hanging which looks like its interior decoration
then.. the appetizer is a plate with different kind of processed meat such as errr all i know is salami. There were so many of them and I have no idea what the name and it surely didn’t suit my taste. Luckily the main course was sea food platter. No more meat for me!
Next, we went to Royal Palace. It’s quiet interesting things to see that huge palace and seeing all the interior of it. Unfortunately, we’re not allowed to take pictures inside.. -_-”
For group picture we stopped by the stadium used for matador, Plaza de Toros. Too bad we went there on a wrong month. Winter just came in.. and basically there were nothing special happening in Spain.. except the MotoGP
Well nothing interesting on these 3 days, except we went around Valencia and spend most of the time in the circuit. Almost raining every day.. except the last day in MotoGP.. and then i got sun burnt
Arrived at Barcelona 9:30am, it was cold windy and raining. Since we won’t be able to check in to the hotel till afternoon, the tour guide bring us around town.. starting from Spanish Village which filled with different Spanish architecture. I was disappointed since the weather is so gloomy that day. After Spanish village, the next stop was Estadi Stadium where they held the opening and closing of 1992 Olympic which by the time we visited was and empty stadium and nothing to see. Monjuich Hill was the next stop.. where we can view the whole city..
Then the main spot was Sagrada Familia.. a very big church designed by famous Spanish architect.. Antoni Gaudi. They have been building this church 1882, and it’s not even finished by now and yet Gaudi himself has passed away. Now the project is continued by other architect.
Last stop was… shopping time!! We were dropped in La Rambla St. and since I don’t really like to shop, i just walk around the city while others already scrambling to buy souvenirs or those LV or Gucci.

Thanks for Sasana Artha Finance (SAF), they give me an incentive tour to Spain. I don’t know why, but I don’t really excited and hoping much from this trip. Probably because it will be winter and as my Spanish friend told me.. it’s rainning most of the time.
The trip was 10 days, but considering the long flight and the bus ride from different cities, it’s only 7 days effective.
The route was:
Denpasar – Singapore – Milan – Barcelona – Valencia – Madrid – Segovia – Madrid – Barcelona – Milan – Singapore – Denpasar
