Fish Sold at Lembang Traditional Market


The fish sold at a kiosk at Lembang traditional market in the north of Bandung. In the front part of the picture are the common carp (cyprinus carpio), locally known as ikan mas, and freshwater pomfret, locally known as bawal.

Both common carp and pomfret are farmed locally and are popular food among the local people. The common carp is a native Asian fish. The freshwater pomfret is a native of South American rivers which was introduced to Asia in the early 1980's.

Fanciful Fence Decoration


Fanciful fence decorations I saw at the backyard of Bale Pare at Kotabaru Parahyangan, a newly developed satellite town near the town of Padalarang in West Bandung.

The photo is bid dark because it was rainy and the sky was very dark when I snapped the picture. I should come back to take another photo when it's sunny.
