Rainbow After Dark

When I was about to go to bed just now, my niece and nephew ran up the staircase to my room, excitedly asking me to bring out my camera. I asked why but they couldn't explain. Finally my little nephew said that he saw the ring of light around the moon.

This is a very rare weather phenomenon and I grabbed my tripod and camera to record that special moment of the moon. I think there should be enough water vapour in the air with different layers of density to refract the light to create that ring of rainbow in the night.

Sunrise at Buntal

Yesterday, I woke up at 3:30 a.m. just to meet up with my photography buddies at 4:30 a.m. for my first-ever sunrise photo shooting at Buntal. Buntal is a fishing village about 35 minutes drive away from Kuching city centre. All my photography buddies who went with me had been there several times. For them, they have collected tons of photos of this place, but it was my first time collecting shots of sunrise at Buntal.

We arrived at the beach at around 5:45 a.m. when it was still quite dark. I didn't realised that the mud was so slippery that I slipped. Luckily I landed on the soft ground and there was nothing serious happening on my body, just a little sore at the waist.

At 6:00 a.m., the first light of the day appeared and we started shooting. I only have a series of landscape shots as it was my first time shooting sunrise here. I got too excited until I forgot to shoot other subjects.

We completed our shooting at around 9:00 a.m. and it was time for us to hit the road back to the city for a nice breakfast. I will definitely return to Buntal for shots of landscape and some other subjects.
