Cruise Along Sungai Belait

Last weekend members of BSRC Photography went for a cruise along Sungai Belait, with main purpose of learning/sharing photography techniques, and secondary purposes of getting to know other members and to wind down (and eat of course!).

Enjoy some of the pics here, and will upload more.

Small kid with Big Heart

I was cleaning up my desktop and found this. It brought tears to the eyes, and I have to say Muhammad and Iman sometimes do something like this, but not Aaeeshah.... I guess its the age thing.

 

My Kampong . . . the place where I grew up

the House I grew up in, in Kampong Melayu Asli

My dad & step-mom run this gerai, selling Nasi Katok, Roti John, Teh Tarik & Juices. Oh... & ABC.

floating 'apong'... 

Muhammad wanted his photo taken with the 'apong'

A barge being towed out to the sea... heard its heading to Kuching to get rocks??

   

The Kampong was recently facelifted - prior to that the landscape was only grass with a few palm trees and leaning... YES, leaning street lights. So the Municipal Board spent $$ to facelift the area, with concrete pathways and beautiful lights, as well as benches for lepak. The downside is there is no parking space, so people tend to park on the road, making it a single lane.
