SYT to a Princess

With the right amount of makeup one is transformed from a sweet girl to a princess waiting to be whisked off her feet by her prince charming.

At the bridal trying out the evening gowns...



Same person but looking elegantly gorgeous.

Glow-in-the-dark (Bio-luminescence)

Luminescence from organic life-form.
The orang asli (aborigines) calls it cendawan bulan, literally meaning Moon Mushrooms. Deeper in the jungle, large clusters of these in bamboo groves are a pretty sight to behold in the darkness of the night.

Ladyhawk's current fave...

Mimicry

To me it looks like a face, perhaps a guy with a thick mustache with sunglasses on. The forehead resembles those "Predator" aliens and wearing a thick fur coat... just imagination unleashed but to the others in the animal kingdom this may be just the thing to dissuade them from making a meal out of........

Heavens Above

A sight I have not seen with my own eyes and doubted that it could be seen around this region until recently when I visited the highlands of Bario in Sarawak.

Star filled sky with the Milky Way cloud visible.

Colourful Birds from Borneo

Taken during a night-walk in a swampy area near the Kinabatangan River. These represent the best bird pictures shot todate.
