There are many reasons to process the photos not long after the trip. First, viewers are sharp. They may ask why this set of photos is not as good as the previous set. Second, some people may look thinner or … erm … quite the opposite then than now. Especially after one long year. Third, it is always good to get the photo processing work out of the way, as soon as possible.
December 2008, we have visited Bandung. And I have published four sets of photos. This particular set of photos captured at the crater “Kawah Putih” is without a doubt my favorite collection. Looking back, I wish my technique was better. And the weather was really bad as well. Nevertheless, I have attempted to put together an album with some … very offbeat captions!

Thanks for the photos. Waited for a long time for it 🙂
Kiat – Ya … almost a year. Sorry man. you know how slow I am at times.
I thnk I have almost completed the entire album. Except if you remember the white pigeons inside a shopping mall? Hehehe.
oh yeah, now that you mention, where are all the birds 🙂
Kiat – Ha ha ha … the birds are still in my hard drive!
Coming, coming!
Any filters or effects used? The album is better than those in National Geographics
AY – Cynthia asked the same! Most of the photos, the color you see is as it was (those near the volcano peak). Except that “alien rocks” photo which I chose a cooler white balance, the rest captures the color of the mist, of the water inside the crater, and the color of the ground as it was.
The next time I go, I will bring along a tripod. Wow … National Geographics … maybe you are referring to the mood it communicates?
This is beautiful.
Shyue Chou – Thanks! My favorite photo album from our 2008 trip to Bandung.
[…] During this trip, instead of taking tons of photos, I have jotted down tons of writing ideas, including one possible book idea. That book idea aside, I initially intended to start publishing the short stories inspired by my short trip to Indonesia starting today. But then, why the rush? Better rush the photos of my lovely nephew and niece instead, learned from experience. […]
