More fruit photos

The Mukim Labi fruit festival is actually launched this morning at 8. I will have to miss it. It's banking day. Will go this afternoon though and maybe tomorrow as well.

The fruit season

I was informed that there is a fruit festival at Dewan Serbaguna Mukim Labi on Sunday 11 October 2009 starting at 8.30 a.m.

These durian kuning were collected from a relative's fruit orchard in Labi last week. Fresh local durian...

If only...

A friendly welcome

Look look

I was watching Hancock on HBO last night when I remembered this photo which I took on 18 Sept 2009. This couple were just so noisy that they threw me off my concentration on a very very important assignment, grab my camera and took quite a number of their poses. Not sure what they were looking at though... maybe they saw Hancock flying past at a very high speed.

I love the yellow & black combination.

Every time I look into your eyes, my love gets deeper... for macro

I wanted to smack this mosquito after it had enough of my blood but it flew away to safety

Too late???

If I were to advice my sons today, it would be

"Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure." Confucius



This mantis was so fast and swift when it caught the fly that I missed the opportunity to catch it in action. I thought I was prepared for it but the split second action was just too fast for my fingers to press the shutter at the crucial moment.

Say cheese...

I took this about a year ago. The tiny spidey was so friendly that it jumped onto my index finger and posed for me. Thanks my tiny friend.

My learning: Treat others with respect and you will get more in return.

You are significant!

Sometimes you feel you are so small that you go unnoticed and nobody appreciate your contribution but without realising it you are actually very significant to someone... you are the colour to their life. Bring back that smile. Selamat berpuasa.

Watch out!

Without realising it, we are sometime the victim of circumstances. Whether we like it or not, we have to face the situation when it happen. They are people out there who will strike at the slightest opportunity.

Alhamdulillah it's raining again

The waiting

Too much waiting... too much time wasted but it's time in your hands to sit back and reflect... do a reality check. If you feel you're floating all over the place with no real objective in life, then maybe you need this big iron ball to hold you down nearer to the ground.

Selamat menyambut Ramadan yang akan menjelang dan selamat menunaikan ibadah puasa. Semoga amal ibadah kita akan diterima Allah jua. Amiiin.

haze gone?

life is a cycle.

kiut kali ah...

Setiap sesuatu yang berlaku itu ada hikmahnya. Jika kita mengetahuinya hari ini pasti kita tidak akan merungut atau merasa hampa. Percayalah pada satu masa nanti kita akan faham mengapa sesuatu itu terjadi, dan kita akan pasti merasa bersyukur ianya terjadi.

Kiut kali ah my nieces ani...

Hazy sun

How bad is the haze? It's getting worse (Updated)

The answer depends on your health. For a healthy person it may not be bad but for a person with respiratory problem, it is very very bad.
