Fireworks at Odaiba, Tokyo

I tried some Digital Photography of Fireworks using my Nikon D80, it was definitely a great night for fireworks photo. A good opportunity to learn how to take pictures of fireworks. These are some of my favorite shots.

I used a zoom lens just to make sure I get in tight and capture just the fireworks themselves. Well, I missed the best place for shooting as we arrived a bit late. These photos taken by using full manual mode, aperture f/11, bulb mode, and of course, on a tripod. Enjoy it.

Pathros and Hafid

By October this year, my long journey will be reaching the toughest stage. This is my last chance and I don't want to repeat the same mistake again like I did in winter 2003. I must win this. Period.

"Victory comes only after many struggles and countless defeats" Taken from The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino. A great story for everyone, a story about wisdom, knowledge and success. This book is a good reminder that we all have to work every day and fail every day to reach our ultimate goal and that is the only way and there is no other way.

Are You The One Who Has It?

Dua Kaleng Rombeng


Dua kaleng rombeng berdiri tegak, tua dan lusuh di pinggir dermaga kecil. Entah telah berapa tahun, keduanya menjadi penghuni dermaga, diam tak bergerak. Tak seorangpun tergerak untuk menggeser kedudukan mereka, enyah dari dermaga atau sekedar bergerak berpindah tempat.

Dua kaleng rombeng berdiri tegak, tua dan lusuh di pinggir dermaga kecil. Kala hujan datang, dengan lapang dada mereka menerima kedatangan air, kala panas datang, kehangatan sinar matahari teresap di dalam tubuh mereka yang rombeng.

Dua kaleng rombeng berdiri tegak, tua dan lusuh di pinggir dermaga kecil. Entah sampai kapan.

Tsukareta!

Jam menunjukkan setengah empat pagi waktu Tokyo.
Gue mulai ngantuk, capek dan kebanyakan ngerokok.
Gue udah baca puluhan artikel dalam selusin jam terakhir.
Capek...
