Camera Woman at Work

A camera woman at work covering the Ramadan music concert I posted yesterday.

Ramadan Life Concert

A spectacular show of stage lighting at a life concert held by SCTV, an Indonesian private national television channel, at Tegalega Park, Bandung, a few days before the Eid-al-Fitr 2012.

The holy month of Ramadan here is not only a religious event, but also a month of festivities. Television channels often hold life concert tours featuring 'religious' (and not-so-religious) music and other forms of 'religious' entertainment like this one. The atmosphere at these concerts are not always religious, of course. Many of the audience are young people who have no other reasons to come but to enjoy themselves.

Semanggi

The semanggi plant in my garden is flowering.

Semanggi is a wild water plant of the marcileaceae family. I found this plant growing wild in the front yard garden and moved it to a pot where it's flowering now.

In the wild, semanggi usually only produces small flowers. But in the pot, with the right nutrients and care, the flowers are bigger and brighter.
