Kionsom Waterfall

It is Located 12Km from Kota Kinabalu city, Kionsom Waterfall becoming a recreation area for those who like to enjoy the nature of waterfall. To get there it will takes 30-45 minutes from the city by a car. The interesting part of this waterfall is it consist of seven level of waterfall which most of the people wouldn't know about it.
So, my friends and I, try to explore this waterfall by our own. Due to my strong interest in photography, i would like to try slow shutter technique to obtain great picture of the waterfall. Actually it is a technique which using low shutter speed of your DSLR camera and produce a smooth flow of a moving object. For example the flow of stream, traffic and any other moving object.
From my experience in exploring the 7 level of Kionsom Waterfall, precaution step should be taken. This is because the way we had is not safe and slippery. Besides, the presence of reptile such as snake, is difficult to see due to low intensity of light inside the jungle and bush. So beware  and enjoy the pictures.






my Journey to West Sumatra

It is 15th January 2013, after finish my final exam i decide to travel to a place which has a beautiful scenery and nature. After made some brainstorming, i choose Bukit Tinggi (West Sumatra) as my destination.So, i took a flight from Kota Kinabalu (my current location) to Jakarta with my DSLR set. I just bring a simple equipment for this journey which consist Canon 7D, Tripod , and timer control.

After arriving at the Jakarta, i take rest for a few hours before I continue my journey to Padang. Padang is the  capital and the largest city of West Sumatra,Indonesia. From Padang, it takes 2 to 3 hours to arrive at Bukit Tinggi. Without much story to tell, i just let the picture talk about the beautiful scenery i obtain from this journey.
