Aerial view of singapore

Aerial view of Singapore seen from ANA, all Nippon Airways. Took this photo when I was back to Singapore from Japan after three months of training there. Every scene is beautiful at home.

Sunset at Langkawi Beach Resort

Langkawi beach resort, at about 30 km off the mainland coast of northwestern Malaysia. One of the attractive sites for photographers especially who love sunset and landscape photography. It is a duty-free island (I love this). Popular beaches are Pantai Cenang, Pantai Tengah, Burau Bay, Pantai Kok, and Datai Bay. Pantai Cenang is my favorite beach and strongly recommend for landscape photographers. It is also great for seascape and sunset photography as well. It is a beautiful beach with seemingly unending stretches of fine white sand. Along the beach with the tall coconuts and casuarinas added the fantastic landscape. Pantai Kok is a peaceful and quiet beach with the backdrop of limestone hills.

How to go to Langkawi..

Tourists can reach the island via ferry from Kuala Perlis or by flight from Kuala Lumpur or even from Singapore there is a direct flight(Malaysia Airlines). Air Asia provides budget connections to the island.

The Langkawi International Airport is one of the 7 international airports in Malaysia and connects the island to Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Penang, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Phuket and also Subang. On the island, there is only one main road runs through the whole island, so you won't be lost. Rental cars and taxis are available in Langkawi with a very reasonable price. Taxis do not run on meter, but instead drivers charge a flat rate which is quite "standardized" from point to point. It would be better ask the taxi fare before you board.

Australia holiday_Melbourne II and Great Ocean Road Adventure

This is the final destination, the Twelve Apostles. The Twelve Apostles, which are located along the spectacular Great Ocean Road are giant rock that rise majestically from the Southern Ocean and are the central feature of the rugged Port Campbell National Park.

I enjoyed the world's great coastal drives along the Great Ocean Road with its dramatic scenery of striking contrasts. It took about 5 hours drive from Melbourne CBD.

With the powerful seas, golden beaches, peaceful townships, giant cliffs and lush forests, the journey was great but the weather was not attracting.

I wish I had a beautiful day with bright blue sky. :(

Dramatic, powerful, dangerous and majestic. How can words describe?? Although it was named twelve Apostles, to day it has only 9 left. Long journey to get there. With this beautiful large shore every body get down here to take pictures. If I am not mistaken, there are over 150 stair cases to reach here.

Dramatic, powerful, dangerous and majestic. Since it is a soft rock, it is your own responsibility for any consequences. Of course I took the risk to take pictures. :) Scenery along the way to the twelve Apostles. I captured this while people are concentrating the soft rock and the Ocean.

Zoomed in to the soft rock.

Other view of the dramatic, powerful, dangerous and majestic soft rock. Thanks God, a got a little blue sky which I was hoping for the whole day.

Different perspective of the soft rock.

I love this simple shot of dramatic scene.

At Port Campbell. Scenery along the way to the twelve Apostles. Great Ocean Road. At Apollo Bay where we have our lunch. Dramatic, powerful, dangerous and majestic.

Scenery along the Great Ocean Road.

This forest is just beside our tea party, our breakfast, during the second stop. By the way I can't recall the name of the stop. Sorry guys..

This guy was shot with 18-200 mm, full zoom during our second stop on the way to the twelve Apostles.

These guys are taken at our second stop where we have our breakfast, in fact tea and local cake, which they call it laminton cake.

We are on the Great Ocean road and on the right is the hill where some people build their summer houses.

On the left is the powerful Ocean.

Rest room at Bell Beach.

It would be a beautiful shot if it it sunny.

This the very first stop at Bell Beach on the way to twelve Apostles.
