[[day 2 in thailand]]
looking at the pics i have taken.. i think i am a budding photographer beaming with potential haha...
My pics of the kids, ie. human portraits, are all shaky and stuff, probably cos the camera isn't as fast as the restless baby. Ironically, my scenic shots seemed to be more well taken. I guess reading up on photography books helped.
i was at the beach today. the water was so clear and blue, u could see right into it. The resort was sited at a part of the island that protudes out into the sea. I can't remember the term for it, but i learnt in geography that this is the point where the current drops the most deposits. Which is why the sea-level is shallow, at about knee deep, for a long distance out into sea. However, the current is very strong and swift at the apex of the island.
It is somewhat scary. It feels like i will be swept out to sea. The current drags me out even when i swim at a normal pace. At that moment, I felt that i understood why people say that people drown because they do not respect the sea... I felt at peace with the sea, though i choose not to look down at the seabed haha... i guess one who respects others, always deserve to be respected.
ok.. im going back to room now.. the room is awesome... and super lac-jack feel.. will post pics when i get back.. I regret not bringin my camera's docking station... going to some island tmr.. nt sure if im diving...
to sum up Day 2... this island here is very beautiful.. the sunny weather, sandy beach in the day, the tranquility of the night and the dazzling star-filled skies at night... how i wished there was someone here to share every moment with me...
