Yesterday afternoon I decided to grab my Panasonic LX3 and snap pictures of “Kebun kelapa sawit (palm plantation)” just at the back of my house. I just finished with my ablution for Zohor prayer, (wearing sarong) before I realized that my LX3 is calling me for my creativity as I seldom touch the camera lately. So I went to the Kebun and start snapping pictures just wearing sarong and shirt (too lazy to change to pants). This is a group of fungi that attach to the palm tree bulk. It is made out of yellowish powder which sticks to your hand. I like the colour for its contrast nature against the environment.
The second picture is a type of mould that can grow on a flat surface especially on a dead tree bulk. The mould also can be observed growing on the farm floor bed just under direct sunlight (but not too harsh sunlight). The color of the mould is dark green and it’s a very nice subject for macro photography. Once my Canon 40D is back from the service centre, I will shot this mould again with my 100 mm macro. The 1:1 ration of the lens will give clearer perspective of the macro shoot. The Panasonic LX3 macro capability is not the same as the 100mm’s 1:1 life size capability, but it’s enough to bring the world of macro to our eyes.
Both of these pictures are not being manipulated in any software of any kind. I just resize the pictures to 1000 pixels in order for it to nicely fit the width of this blog.
