I travelled to Bali last summer and here are some images of Tanah Lot temple. Tanah Lot temple is located right next to the shore because it is a temple that is dedicated to the sea gods. I was captured by the colours and fragrance of this temple. 

The view of the Tanah Lot temple was magnificent, the waves crashed onto shore with impressive heights. Because of that I did not dare venturing too close to the sea, and a Balinese local also warned me that a month before I visited, a family drowned from getting too close to the edge while taking photos. The Balinese locals uses flowers and incense as offerings for worshiping the sea gods. The sea gods is highly respected in Bali because Bali itself is an island therefore it is interpreted that when natural disasters come the gods of the sea is angry. ​

'Standing near the shore is not recommended because the sea gods might swallow the people up when they get hungry.' a Balinese local told me.

During April of 2013 I went on a three day trip to Matlock, Derbyshire which is north of England. It is approximately an hour drive from Manchester. I was desperately yearning for a getaway from the city life of London and so I went and visited my family friends there.  It only took two and a half hour train ride from London St. Pancras International to Matlock station. The trip was a relaxing one and I was absolutely in love with the countryside and smell the country air I definitely was able to forget about the essays I needed to write and de-stress! There were lots of mountains and hills to climb and lots of wildlife to see. I was lucky enough to see the sun (which is rare in England) during my stay there and for some lovely shots. If you ever fancy a typical British country side experience, I'd say Matlock, Derbyshire is the place to go. It is very near Peak district National Park too. However visiting the place during April to August (Summer season) is advised because it could get quite cold and snowy in the winter.

Yoshitomo Nara is a famous Japanese Artist. Nara's work has been exhibited worldwide and since 1984, he has had around 40 or more solo exhibitions. His work has been influenced by his childhood as well as manga and comics in 1960's Japan. This can be seen from his stylized large-eyed figures, for example the drawing of the girl above. The girl character above is also his signature, well recognized across the globe. The juxtaposition of an innocent child with human evil or angry expressions, which is a prominent theme in Nara's work can be interpreted as his reaction to Japan's rigid social conventions. Apart from exhibiting in art fairs and museums such as MOMA and Museum of Contempory Art in the United States, Nara's works are also popular in the art auction scene. He had various works auctioned in international auction houses such as Christie's and Sotheby's before.

And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. (Genesis 1:24)

So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear? (Matthew 6:31)

In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end. (Hebrews 1: 10-12)
