1. A View from Above (looking down) A pic taken by my ten year old son.
 |
| From Fishing in Bintulu |
2. A Macro Shot. THis is as macro as it gets. This is a poisonous snake and a bite can be fatal.
 |
| From gawai 2009 |
3. Laughter. Playing a game. A seashell is turned and the person to whom it points has to drink a small glass of rice wine.

4. Relaxation. I find fishing a form of meditation.

5. A Celebration. An Iban man is dancing the ngajat. The celebration is Hari Gawai or the Harvest Festival.

6. A Sunset. Awesome sunset colors.

12. A Street Scene. There are two parallel street scenes here. One of the usual street scene and the other one reminiscent of a street in the boat. Customers send their bicycles, motorcycles across the river by boat.

20. Something Vintage (pre-1980). These inherited pots are supposed to be very old and believed to contain the remains of people who have long moved on. How much is legend and how much is fact is yet to be ascertained

By all means, u r welcome to visit this part of the world
Wow so many pictures. Most of them are very nice, your photography skills have definitely improved
Thank you. I am seriously trying to improve but not making much headway
Wow, so different to our culture, and that’s what makes your pictures so interesting! 4, 6 and seven are my favourites. Well done!
Thank you Jientje
Lots of interesting shots here.
I don’t blame you for not getting any closer to that snake. I even leaned back in my chair a bit.
It was a tense moment
Your sunset, sun flare & shadows photos are fantastic!
Thank you
Wow, your sunset picture is gorgeous! Great job!
Thanks
love your sunset, water, and fire pictures. great entries!
Thank you
I think it’s so wonderful that you participated because it gives people who don’t live where you are a chance to see new things. You captured some beautiful shots. As so many already said, your sky shots (sun flare and sunset) are amazing! It’s hard to believe you captured that snake. It doesn’t look too happy! Wow. I also really liked your something made of glass, relaxation, and your adorable puppy exploring your garden. Nicely done!!
Thank you so much for yr kind comments. I am so glad I joined too
There are quiet some good shots here! Love the overwhelming number of pics for this post
Keep it coming mate.

wow! great shots! #2 gave me the creepy crawlies. I loved 19, 10, 7, & 6 the best but they are all great!
Thank you
thanks for the view into your world – so interesting and great photos!
Jen
Thank you Jen
I like your sunset the best and the drum was very unique–the snake, a little scary. It was fun to learn a little bit about your world through your pictures.
Thanks for dropping by
I like number 6 cos it gives me more inspiration with its rich colours and meaning. I am an ardent fan of photography and art exhibits which might not surprise you. Somehow I am lazy to shoot photos or paint them anymore. Maybe I had too much of it during student days where I had to carry a B/W camera for few years and develop to print by myself. It was tough and became no fun really. So now, decades later, I start to enjoy viewing works of others. Very soon, I will be back to serious baking again!
u r a man of many talents…baking wow
Love your sunset and lens flare!
Love your sunset photo, great job!
I love all your shots! Awww cute puppy! And the food in your something made of glass shot looks DELICIOUS! Great work!
Great photos,
I really like your macro, sunset, lens flare and fire shots.
Your sunset and sun flare pictures are gorgeous! And PLEASE tell me that snake wasn’t simply slithering across your path and you happened to see it and photograph it?!!! BLECH! Snakes freak me out!
It wanted to eat the bait set out for the fish. They had to cut the string n let it g for our safety’s sake
so many great shots most esp the sun captures…the snake too!
i am glad u like it
I love your puppy! But the snake is scary!!
it was scary..not just look scary but was scary indeed
You have a beautiful collection here! Number 6 is my fav.
thank you
So many wonderful shots!!! I have quite a few in my favorites!
Such an honor for u to personally come over
Thanks! It was such fun. Looking forward to the next one.
Your photos are interesting and lovely! What a wonderful glimpse into another culture! My two favorites are the sunset and sun flare photos – they are spectacular. Great job!
Thank you
Nice shots! You mean you saw a poisonous snake when you went fishing?
it took the bait.
