sleepingbeauty & whitechrysant: Juni 2012

My new camera has come!!! Yeah that pinky girly and unique camera already in my hand. It's funny when the first time she came I and my friend can't open it. We just thought how about prying it force. But obvious it was a simply way to open the back cover. What should I do just pull up it's film rewind knob, that's all --"

my new Holga :D

testing testing...

Before Holga came, Aquapix had already come. This analog camera use for underwater till 3 m depth while Holga is for the vignette and make the vintage look for it's picture. Really happy welcoming them into my life. I hope I can capture every beautiful moment with them :D

aquapix for underwater

both of them I love the most

I'm loving it cause it's different. When the others just provide the place to take a rest and always count how much money you must pay, it doesn't happen here. So, what topic I wanna tell about? Now, I'll tell you about the home, really cozy home for the mount climber to stay. I'll tell you bout Mr. Min's house. One of the basecamp in the last village in Merbabu Mount.

If you want to go Merbabu Mount via Wekas track, You must try this one. Try to stay overnight there. The place that I love the most is it's fireplace. It isn't only make you warm by it's fire but the togetherness in this family too.

When I still fall asleep, Mrs. Min always already woke up and cook there. Then followed by her husband (Mr. Min), her daughter and her grandson. She always cook water for her grandson so he can take a bath with the warm water. Then she put an uniform on him. Her grandson still in junior kindergarten.

wake up, and behind me there are Mr. and Mrs. Min already stay in the fireplace to get warm

One day, when I accompany my friends climb Merbabu Mount. I mean my friends went up to the top and I stay in Mr. Min house became the basecamp team for the rescue if something worst happen.

Because of they didn't want to see me alone in the house they invite me to went harvest in the field with them. They harvest the potatoes. I thought only us that harvest the potatoes but there a lot of people already there. Obviously, all of them are still family. When the harvest time come, they'll help each other to harvest it.

so merry, doesn't it?

our harvest :D

After done, I invited to come to little brother Mr. Min's house, not far from Mr. Min house. His wife already cook chicken for the big family. Then I told to join there. So excited you know. They were very welcome for me although they haven't met me yet before. I really enjoy this atmosphere. When the humility can bring the happines that everyone in it can feel the happiness together. A thing that I won't get in the city.

I won't forget this moment. and I felt sorry too for the other climber that can't feel what I feel. Feel the happiness in the simplicity of the big family. Not only feel the excitement of climbing the mount but excitement mingled with the mountain slope people too.

I'll always miss that place. Fireplace that I love the most. With the warmth of the family inside and of course of the beauty scenery outside the window...
