MY JOURNEY

While the mood began to appear at the right time , I decided to hunt photos at Mount Bromo in Probolinggo East Java, Indonesia . This photo was taken by my husband using the Samsung Galaxy Note smartphone , on Sunday September 8, 2013. Bromo mountain 2,329 meters high (7,641 ft), Mount Bromo has a crater with a diameter of 800 meters or less. Erupted last time in 2010,  and the type of mountain is still active (stratovolcano).

I left the house to go to the city of Probolinggo on Saturday night at 10:00 PM , on September 7, 2013 . I prepared all the supplies ahead of time to check all the car including engine needs . Not a lot of other equipment that I take it because it is not for the purpose of stay .

Exactly at 10:00 PM on Saturday I went with my husband . I most like to travel out of town when the night, as well as a cool atmosphere and not a lot of vehicles on the highway passing . Night trip is exciting to play Pink Floyd music , Jazz , Soul music , Pat Metheny , Gary Moore , and We are young by Nate Ruess ...... ohhh cool love it .

The ride never stopped because I had to fast to Mount Bromo for not wanting to miss the coming sunrise . At about 1:00 AM I've been in the village area Ngadisari location , where in the travel route is fabulous with twists and climbs a horrible but very exciting .

Lots of twists and inclines with a slope of approximately 45 degrees about the startling because the atmosphere is so dark and the volume of vehicles that pass through the route was relatively quiet . It was rather alarming . Surprisingly the weather was not so cold in the mountains , I think the effect of the number of trees cut to be made in the fields of agriculture, not like it used to chill until breathless when breathing , as if the blood is to be frozen .

A lot of which came in that night until I find hard to place the destination car park . In the end there is a car parking attendants directing me to ride again because there was no place to park .

After I parked the car park interpreter was asking "whether want to rent a Jeep with the price 450.000 Rupiah ( 50 U.S. Dollars ) !" Among others, the route taken Penanjakan place or location where the sunrise and it appears that these two were to directly to Mount Bromo to directly see the smoke coming out of the hole that is shaped like a ring .

And park interpreter that provides another alternative when it saw me coming because only two people and they only offer a Ojek called here ( motorcycle ) at a cost of 200.000 Rupiah ( 20 U.S. Dollars ) . I strongly agree with the second alternative by using cheap and Ojek next challenge is even more adrenaline , because of past extensive sand flats make frequent motorcycle wheel slip .

I love these places because a lot of changes around the place , among others, the cleanliness , the friendliness of the locals and the atmosphere is very natural . I've been coming to this place is very dirty lots of trash everywhere to make me disgusted to come back . I appreciate the hard work of local governments always pay attention to environmental cleanliness and friendliness of its people .

Environmental awareness and hopefully such a system to be maintained , so they can bring a lot of local and foreign tourists .

Thank you very much for the visited , and I really appreciate your time .

5:00 am at Sunday of September 1, 2013 ..... time show was nearing sunrise but I'm still looking for the right location for shooting . Not a lot of plans in my brain , because I just wanted to set foot without having programmed with a plan that is always dull .

By swinging the bike I continue to browse the highway to go to the village outposts still fairly quiet , although the region entered a big city ( Surabaya ) . Because the lives of the locals still looks very improper even under the poverty line . This photo I took in the Mangrove Gunung Anyar the called names, area Recent in Surabaya , East Java, Indonesia.

When entering the Mangrove areas are not many visitors who come only a few pedestrians and cyclists like me . I pedal the bike continued until well into the innermost region , the quiet atmosphere as seen many boats at anchor and the owner is still sleeping , because day-to- day activities .

Month of July , 2013, this place was visited by the President of Indonesia and it still feels sightings pictures of President 're planting seeds for reforestation and the big picture is still stuck at the entrance Mangrove .

There is a sense of amused and cynical crossed my mind , for what is to come if the President does not help the economy of small people according to its promises while campaigning in the presidential election . Looks like he's just doing tasks and responsibilities as head of state but not with the heart .

I see a lot on the outskirts of the river stood the uninhabitable building with materials from waste scraps . I had a time to capture this image because it looks clear that the higher the social gap between the rich and the poor , made ​​me feel like lifting things in perspective during the eye by some people .

There is a saturation point and greed in the human brain where we are confronted by two choices between rich or poor life , but the thing to remember is every human being was born from the womb of a different with different backgrounds . No one human child was born wanting to live in poverty , but again we must be wise and caring look around . " Is not the experience is a good teacher ? "

I think the key to the success of a leader has a heart , ears and eyes , not a lot of promises and hiding behind the magnificent palace .

Thank you to all visitor who many give support , and I really appreciate your time . Once again thank you very much . Have a wonderful day with camera . Take care ! ! ! ! "
