THE WILTING MOMENT
I know
It is really hurt
Part by part fell apart
Wisdom of the wind
The gift of mother nature
The perfect harmony for livings.

My dear friends, “If my words are just nothing then I won’t write them down”.
Just photos.
FLOWER
I am always confused by so many flowers even a single one is beautiful
WILD CANE
Between sky and wind, Wild cane never stop dancing
LANDCARVING
God created the world and Men carved it to live with
RAY OF LIGHT
The moon and year pass and disappear forever, but the most beautiful moments shine through the ray of light.
THE MIST
I am always amazed by the mist, they are housing many mysteries.

The misty lake is always store the beauty and mystery. I have already been there, sitting by the edge of the silence water front for almost an hour before dawn. When the Sunlight started glowing behind the mountain I saw the silhouette of of its shape, then step by step the scene getting more clear just like what I saw as a start show of a movie in the theater.
I stared around widening my eyes at every single point and wondered why I couldn’t see the mist above the water – where the legendary mist that many people told are.
Oh,… Wow! there it is, as soon as the light was about 60 o Centigrade above the earth, they flew over the water surface. I was fascinated and stunned by my own fantasy, an Evil came out of the water with its long fingernails and large fangs swam toward me so fast. I was shocked and run backward – fell into the shrubs and my eyes were blinded slowly till I saw nothing.
Consciousness regained a few minutes later. I looked around no one but beautiful ray of lights attracted me to get up quickly. I kept standing there speechless and amazed. The golden rays of lights shining from the crevices of trees and leaves down on to the water, glittering into many colors; orange, yellow, and red.
While I dance with the Rays Of Lights, I heard someone greeting me ” Good Morning Sir” He was standing so close to me and I didn’t even knew where he came from. I stopped dancing and ask him who he was. He looked up the sky for a moment and said that he was from there, the dense forest on the mountain as he pointed out the forest in front of me.
I came here for you, there maybe some thing I can do for you, he said. Oh no,… I just came here to watch the mist and the rays of lights, I responded. He smile gently, Come with me, we can have some hot coffee to warm up from chilly air here.
When we walked toward a direction, I saw a little old house not far from the lake. I asked him if that was his house. He said No. that belongs to an old man who has been here very long, an old firewood collector but he has never talked to people even none knows where the wood he collected had gone to…. So strange…. My nape chilled. We silence till my questions broke it up. Where is the old man? we didn’t see any one in this house didn’t we?.. No we wont see him.
That old man leaves the house before dawn and returns home with the firewood at an Eagle sounds, almost at midday the eagle usually fly around for the prey every day. then the old man goes back to the woods until Sunset.
And what about you?.. I asked him again… what do you do in here? He told me that he just do fishing with his rickety bamboo raft once in a while.
I was quite enjoyed chatting with him and drunk the coffee he made until I realized that the sun is nearly above our heads. As soon as we finished the coffee, I said that I had to go back home. He smiled gently at me and said; Let us finish our coffee, toasted. Just in an eyes blink he was disappeared, the mug he held was fell down the ground and the one I hold vanished nowhere. I stood up and back off, and run as fast as I could, I wanted to scream but I couldn’t. My foot was stumbled on a big root of a tree and I fell down unconscious.

Perhaps we are the only photography group in this country that has a hobby of photographing mushrooms.Our passions is wandering in the forests, especially tropical rain forest around the place where we lived. This time let me take this opportunity to tell you about our visit to the Research Forest Center of Dramaga- Bogor- West Java Indonesia.
Bogor Dramaga Research Forest Center was built in 1956 covering an area of 60 ha by the Forestry Research Institute. The distance from the center of Bogor is aproximately 11 KM westbound that can be reach by vehicle in + 15-30 minutes.
Beautiful trees set on the edge of the lake side
In the Forest Research Dramaga also include an office area used by CIFOR (Center for International Forestry Research) covering the area of 10 ha, there is also a lake (situ) called Situ Gede located just aside the forest which is managed by the city administration.
In addition to increasing the functionality of forest research, here also have been established the Captive Technology Development Center for Timor Deer.

Artificial tropical forests that formed long ago presents a replica of small portion of a tropical rain forest environment in the country. The trees grow towering into the sky with shrubs underneath giving an impression that we feel it like we were in the wild.
Trees towering into the sky
A beautiful morning, the sun was shining brightly after a couple of days rained. Today is the time for us to hunt fungus there.
This research forest is full of biodiversity that has been formed long ago, such as an ecosystems as appropriate in the growth of fungi that can be found in the tropical rain forests in Indonesia.
Nevertheless we are not Mycologist, we’re just fans of photographing mushrooms

Mungkin kami adalah satu-satunya kelompok fotografi di negeri ini yang memiliki hobi memotret jamur. Itulah sebabnya salah satu kegemaran kami berkeliaran di hutan, terutama hutan hujan tropis di sekitar tempat di mana kita tinggal. Kali ini saya akan bercerita tentang kunjungan kami ke Pusat Penelitian Hutan Dramaga- Bogor.
Hutan Penelitian Dramaga dibangun pada tahun 1956 seluas 60 ha oleh Balai Penyelidikan Kehutanan. Jarak dari pusat kota Bogor kira-kira 11 km ke arah barat yang dapat dijangkau oleh kendaraan bermotor dalam tempo 15-30 menit.
Di Hutan Penelitian Dramaga juga mencakup area kantor yang digunakan oleh CIFOR (Center for International Forestry Research) yang meliputi wilayah 10 ha, dan ada juga sebuah danau (situ) disebut Situ Gede yang terletak persis bersebelahan dengan hutan, yang dikelola oleh pemerintah kota .
Di samping untuk meningkatkan fungsi penelitian hutan, di sini juga telah mendirikan Pusat Pengembangan Teknologi Penangkaran Rusa Timor.
Hutan tropis buatan yang terbentuk sejak lama menyajikan sebagian kecil dari situasi hujan tropis di negara ini. Pohon-pohon tumbuh menjulang ke langit dengan semak-semak belukar di bawahnya memberikan kesan bahwa kita merasa seperti di alam hutan yang liar.
Suatu pagi nan indah, matahari bersinar terang setelah beberapa hari yang lalu turun hujan. Hari ini waktunya kami untuk berburu Jamur disana.
Hutan penelitian ini memang sangat sarat dengan biodiversity yang sudah terbentuk sejak lama, diantaranya ekosistim pertumbuhan jamur sebagaimana layaknya yang dapat ditemui didalam hutan-hutan hujan tropis di Indonesia. Namun demikian kami bukanlah ahli Jamur, kami hanya penggemar memotret jamur.

There is no flowers that look scary. we always fascinated by them, whatever its form.
Starting from its beauty, men always adore and place them in the most appropriate place, in the garden at the front door or on the soft lawn even on the crystal clear vase. In any celebration flowers are always everywhere.
It is so clear that flowers make our life more vibrant, our house seems beautiful, not only because of beautiful colors, flowers have unlimited forms and characters.
As I have mentioned in my post on “My Flower Photos (Part 1)”, photographing flowers is not easy as we imagined. This time I am trying to photograph them as “Artistic Flowers”, involving natural lights, still life, angle, etc.
Nevertheless I will not stop learning more deeper about the flowers.
BLOOM of Bellucia pentamera flower – grow in Java-Indonesia
STRAIGHT Cannoball flower (Couroupita guianensis) – grow in Java and Bali
CLOSE UP Hybrid Gerbera – grow in West Java Indonesia
FLOWER IN THE DARK Hybrid Orchid grow in Indonesia
FLOWER AND FAUNA Heliconia
THE BROKEN FLOWER Tulip from China
FLOWER AND WATER (DEW) Bauhinia (Orchid tree) grow at my garden
FLOWER AND STILL LIFE Water Hyacinth – grow at my garden

Tidak ada bunga yang terlihat menakutkan. kita selalu terpesona oleh mereka, apa pun bentuknya.
Mulai dari keindahan, Manusia selalu memuja dan menempatkan mereka di tempat yang paling tepat, di taman di pintu depan atau di halaman rumput lembut bahkan pada vas kristal bening. Dalam perayaan apapun bunga selalu ada di mana-mana.
Hal ini sangat jelas bahwa bunga membuat hidup kita lebih hidup, rumah kita tampak indah, bukan hanya karena warna yang indah, bunga memiliki bentuk dan karakter yang tak terbatas.
Seperti yang telah saya sebutkan di posting saya tentang “My Flower Foto (Part 1)”, memotret bunga tidak mudah seperti yang kita bayangkan. Kali ini saya mencoba untuk memotret mereka sebagai bunga artistik, yang melibatkan cahaya alami, benda-benda, sudut pandang, dll.
Namun demikian saya tidak akan berhenti belajar lebih dalam tentang bunga.

Many people assume photographing flowers is easy! just look at the viewfinder, place the focus point, and press the shutter … finished! Later, what happened to the result?… the photos don’t tell anything.
So,… what does the photo have to tell about?…
You are absolutely right !… It must tell us its beauty.
Here, I was trying to capture the beauty of some flowers that are a bit difficult to photograph. Why?… It just because they emerged in an environment that were very hard to be isolated, too many leaves around.
This Fire Lily (Clivia Miniata) grows in my country with slightly different than in its country of origin. the leaves grow up taller than its bloom’s stalk.
Similar condition to the above. This Water Hyacinth ( Eichhornia crassipes) flowers are always surrounded by many leaves.
The Water Liies ( Numphaea) grow in a swampy wilderness
