Shadow and Reflection

The 18-55mm lens shows a wider view of my favourite dam. I can see the water level keeps going down. And if it continues, I shall know how deep it is very soon, though this is not be a good discovery.

It is a hot morning. The monkeys seem only happy jumping and swinging on the opposite side of the dam. It must be great if I could chance upon these monkeys swimming and playing in the water one day.

Until then, I have to satisfy myself with this lonely swallow. It is perching quietly but visible between the bare woods.

And both of us, me and my shadow, still feel so good in this simple morning.

  1. Awesome photos, looks like it was a beautiful morning to visit Cerok Tokun. I wonder if the swallow enjoys watching the monkeys.

  4. Great photos of the lake. Is it above the dam? It would be cool to see the monkeys. Neat shot of your shadow.

    Am great to reflect and to be reflected.

    I had this first picture when I had difficulty to capture my shadow. This reminded me that I actually owned a 18~55mm lens. Sigh...

    Diane:
    The swallow must have a total view of the surrounding. What if I can fly...

    fufu:
    This swallow will greet you Happy Birthday on 22nd March.

    It needs some quiet moments to have a daily reflection.

  12. It has been reported that weather's expected to be dry and there might water shortage. Not a good piece of news.

  13. Nice pictures and they give me a relaxed feeling. In the last picture, your shadow, the sky, and the water have become one with nature.
