Greenpeace protest at IDC in Sandton

I got tipped off that Greenpeace is planning something at the IDC in Sandton and I went there not knowing what to expect.

Greenpeace started banging drums at one entrance and then moved to the other one. At the other entrance, they chained themselves to the gates and later 'delivered' plastic bags full of leaves and with Nuclear-stickers on the bags.


The security there started freaking out and ripping the bags, throwing it at the media and hitting the media with it!


It was quite funny, but if the bags was something hard... It would have been a different case.

Here is a couple photos of me, taking the pics...

I Could Die (aku bisa mati)

your destiny my destiny gives us the perfect love
your heart my heart penetrate in a beautiful story
it never occurred i am stepping far away without you
never imagined if it is not your love that keep me company

I could die if you do not exist, if not in the side
I could die will not survive without your love




takdirmu takdirku memberi kita cinta sempurna
hatimu hatiku merasuk dalam kisah yang indah
tak pernah terfikirkan aku melangkah jauh tanpamu
tak pernah terbayangkan jika bukan cintamu yang temani aku

aku bisa mati bila tak ada kamu, bila tak di sisi
aku bisa mati takkan ku bertahan tanpa cintamu

The Grey Hope

all i know, you are my grey hope

and all i know, you are truly my grey hope..

my brain is always forced the heart to convinced that you are a real hope

but the reality of the world will continue to make this expectation merely becomes the hope of grey.


i do not understand why I'm not upset
and chose to survive as strong as this


not because this is just the ordinary grey hope
but it is actually an extraordinary grey hope

and certainly different.


what if?


if only I were born earlier than now,
would everything remains the same?
would everything change?
would everything remains the same but slightly changed?
would this hope will be the orange hope?
or will still be the grey hope?



can you answer me?
cause you are the only one
the only
my grey hope

Love's Secret

William Blake (1757-1827)

never seek to tell thy love,
love that never told can be
for the gentle wind doth move
silently, invisibly.

i told my love, i told my love,
i told him all my heart,
trembling, cold, in ghastly fears.
ah! he did depart!

soon after he was gone from me,
a traveller came by,
silently, invisibly
she took him with a sigh

Midlands Meander Model

Daniella and I was on our way to Karkloof Waterfall after we did a Canopy Tour. On our way to the waterfall we saw these logs and I remarked how nice it could be to do a shoot here. At the falls Dani changed from clothes and sneakers to ordinary clothes. When we were passing the logs again, I decided to grab the opportunity and take a couple of pics. Dark clouds were rolling in and the light began to drop, but Dani was an awesome sport :) However, I just had a single flash there with no stands or accessories, so it was only make-shift.

Just for fun.

To have a space for dreaming and solitude.
