Rattan Christmas Tree


A Christmas tree made of rattan I found hidden under the shadow in the corner of a building at Pesona Bambu Hotel in Lembang. I like how the shadows interplayed with the shapes and textures of the tree.

This is my last post for the year 2013. Happy New Year to you who is celebrating it.

Music-Playing Ants


Music-playing ants sculptures at Pesona Bambu Hotel in Lembang, a resort area in the northern hills of Bandung. I can only guess that the hotel's management has chosen these sculptures because ants are known as a social insects whose complex labor division and ability to solve problems have long become our inspiration. Ants are a symbol of hard and smart communal working ethic.

Pedal Boats at Situ Ciburuy


Pedal boats parked near a bamboo jetty at Situ Ciburuy lake in the West Bandung Regency's town of Padalarang, some 22 kilometers west of Bandung's city center.

Situ Ciburuy is a man-made lake created by damming the confluence of two rivers. The lake was created by the Dutch colonial ruler in 1918 as a recreational place.
