Sparkling

Rainbow without the rain

Nature is always filled with surprises. An beautiful sunset decorated with a streak of rainbow even though it has been days since it rained. It's really a sight to behold.

Door

Mushroom ball

Does anyone remember these?
I used to kick these around whenever I see them on the field during my childhood. To me, they were a ball, albeit a fragile one which will burst into fragment once kicked.

Hotate Teriyaki

A succulent dish of grilled scallops from Sushi Zanmai. As the scallops used were fresh, it was juicy and tender, not to mention the size of the scallops which were bigger than the average ones seen in other sushi shops in Malaysia. Definitely a must have for me every time I visit Sushi Zanmai.

Red Sky

After a rainy afternoon, dusk came with a sky painted red by the setting sun. A dazzling hue to welcome to approaching night.

A lucky shot

A shot at the sky from the comforts of my room in campus. A lucky shot as the lightning was sparse and it was mere minutes away from total darkness.

Playful

Each of us has a playful side, let's unleash it and bring laughter into our life.

Curious cat

Deep gaze

My first try at black and white conversion.

One of the cats near my house gave birth to a litter of kittens recently. This one is the most lovable out of the bunch with the furriness of its coat.

p/s. thanks to pui pooi for distracting it when I took its photo.

Stormy Moonlight

The full moon is shy on this stormy night and decides to hide behind some cloud. Yet, it peeks out occassionally to catch a glimpse of us waiting to admire its beauty.

Megajoules jolt

A shot that I chance upon during a short trip to Tok Bali. A lightning storm was raging nearby that evening, casting bolts down to earth with ear splitting thunder.

This was taken at Tok Aman Bali, a beachside resort which opened at the end of last year. The ambiance is so relaxing, especially the pool which just impel the urge to lounge and relax at the chairs and dip into the pool for a revitalizing swim.

Take a guess

Can you guess which piece of equipment did this picture came from?

Personally, I like the different colours for wires used in this piece of equipment, it looks like a miniature rainbow. I found this when, out of curiosity, I peek through a minuscule silt at the back of it.

p/s.: this was taken at some place overlooking a stage during the final days leading up to Chinese Cultural Night at USM KK.

Happy Valentine's Day to all.

Rock the pancakes

Pancakes On The Rocks, a fitting name since it is famous for it's delicious pancakes and is located at The Rocks, Sydney. It has an excellent atmosphere for friends to gather, to relax, and to tuck into a delicious meal.

Look at the queue, this is only half of it. This place is really popular with the locals.

Smoked ham pizza.

Fisherman'a catch, done just nice with a crispy crust and juicy meat inside.

A rack of succulent pork ribs with barbecue sauce fresh from the grill. A truly mouth-watering dish that will certainly blow you away.

Macadamia Madness - macadamia pancakes topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a generous sprinkle of roasted macadamia nuts and drizzled with maple syrup. It is the perfect dessert for a macadamia lover like me. 

Devils Delight, a triple combo of chocolate pancake, chocolate ice cream and chocolate sauce with strawberries. A gratifying chocolate feast to die for.

Love in the air

February, a month filled with love and romance.
Tomorrow will be the last of Chinese New Year, it's also the Chinese version of Valentine's Day, a day where singles try their luck at finding love. In Malaysia, there is a tradition where single ladies write their name on a mandarin orange and casts it into a river while single men will pick them up and contact the lady, this is done in the hopes of finding their other half. What are your plans for tomorrow?
Another 9 more days will be Valentine's Day, the famous day of love where love are cherished and celebrated. It's has been the norm for gifts to be exchanged, roses to be given, a romantic candle-light dinner to be feasted on, and to completed the day a stroll in the park or beach. This is the picture perfect Valentine's Day celebration as shown in movies. We have our own version of this picture perfect celebration, what's your?

Happy New Year 2012

Sunrise on top of Mount Batur, Bali after an almost 4 hour hike which started at 3am. It was pitch black when we reached the viewing place surrounded by thick fog and chilling air.
It was a rewarding sight when the fog thins and the 1st hint of golden rays appear at the horizon, revealing the jagged shapes of the mount beneath. It is my first sunrise overseas and one of the best I have ever seen.

The sun has just started shining on 2012, A new year filled with limitless possibilities, joy and happiness.
A toast to this new year and Happy New Year to everyone, keep the spirits high for new challenges.
