Last Sunday I went to Prambanan temple with school friends to shoot Tawur Kesanga, a ceremony before the day of Nyepi (Day of Silence, the new year of Balinese Hindu). Only brought the D50 with me, I'm currently too broke to afford films. :(
Since it's a cultural ceremony, it's only normal to see so many photographers --serious photojournalists and hobbyists alike-- around the place to cover the event. But you guys knowing my style... could already guess that I was more interested in the totally random scenes I found instead of the ceremony itself. ;)
Besides, we got there 2 hours too early anyway, so we got some time to fiddle around the temple before the ceremony started. Anyway, on to the photos:
Don't usually do that kind of shadow self-portrait, but I couldn't resist.
My school friend, Very. If this were on film I'd try to print this at grad 4 or heck, 5.
Yet another shadow self-portrait. It's getting pretty addictive.
There were some school kids on study tour that morning. ...Still with my shadow. :o Last one of these, I promise.
....Perhaps not. Btw the only people here is me and a friend of mine, frame left. The other shadows are temple ornaments.
Which one do you like better? It was a clear blue sky morning, just had to take these. Also looks pretty good in colors, but I like the b/w better.
On the way to the ceremony ground:
And some random scenes around the ceremony ground:
....yeah, me being a retard.
Some panning actions!
A dancer helping another fellow dancer fixing his make-ups.
And to end this entry... kids! Hope this finds you all well!
