Photo of the month - the simple bulbul bird


This is the most common bird in South east asia (i think). A bird watching told me that there are so many of them, keen bird watchers cant even estimate nor count them.

My Casio caught about 200 shots of these simple birds, thanks to a steady pillar and high speed continuous photo snapping capabilities... and of course a super 10x optical zoom.

Movie clip of the month -Is it a bird, a plane, a PYTHON!?



No, i did not catch this reptile. But i did see an armed bodyguard going through the gates and pulling this humongous reptile out hanging from a 3 metre stick. (on April 18, 2009!!)

Point to note:
When asked, someone said it ate only insects.

The bodyguard said he doesn't yet know what to do about it, and then proceeded to mend the basket which previously held the snake...with the snake just a metre behind him.

i took the photo with the maximum zoom. And admired the beauty of such a reptile!

someone else might said 'Eeeeee, dont come near me!!!'.

well, one man's meat is another man's poison.

Heart wrenching True Story of the month - Life and death


Just want to share a happening here with the poor we work with in the Philippines. This just happened in the last few days.

One of the earliest friends we encountered is a lady who i shall call 'Julie'. Though she's a nice lady, it was the choice she made which we could not understand, nor can we change. She was separated from her husband and went to live with a another man and had children with him. He is an alcoholic and from what we know, has been showing very young children pornography movies.

'Julie' though barely in her late 30s already has a daughter who is barely 20. we shall call her 'Ann'. Ann already has a 'husband' whom we suspect is also
