WW: Burst of colors - Spring is Coming

Hi everyone.

Hope all is well and in some parts of the world, burst of colors are popping.

Well, in Jakarta, Indonesia, we are facing the monsoon. The rainy season.

It is supposed to be beautiful but it can be dreadful as well, as we face some natural disasters like floods, landslides and more. The pandemic makes it even worse. 

Nevertheless... let's keep our faith and spirit up. Here's a little burst of colors I took here and there to mark the upcoming spring. 

To me, spring means the bloom of hopes

And that's exactly what we need.

We will always have our own struggles and challenges in this life, but for sure we have to be confident that there will always be the light at the end of the tunnels!

Btw, these photos are all taken by my smart phone.

Hope you enjoy it.

have a wonderful day

WW: Hagia Sophia Revisited

We have heard from the news recently that Hagia Sophia or Aya Sofya in Istanbul, Turkey is now becoming mosque again. It was originally built as Cathedral then turned into mosque for several times before it functions as museum. Until July 10th, 2020, when President Erdogan of Turkey announced that Hagia Sophia will resume its function as mosque again.

I just remember my last visit there and  revisit this amazing place through my external hard disk. Again I just realize I have so many unpublished photos of Hagia Sophia. 

Even after all those times, I am still awed by its magnificent details.

Hope you like the following photos.

WW: Diving Trip to Pahawang and Kelagian Islands, Lampung

Diving will always be my cup of tea.

Truly an enjoyable hobby that take my mind off things.
That is why I was super sad when I cannot go anywhere, particularly to the places with wonderful diving spot.

But I finally managed to join a diving trip in Lampung.
With small group and health protocol.

Here are some photos on my  diving trip to Pahawang and Kelagian Islands, Lampung.

Enjoy..
