Two Rocks

Two Rocks
Digging deep into the archives as I update this photoblog sporadically till I finish my exams (in 17 days’ time!)…

This is a wider view of the “face-rock” (seagull’s nest included) featured in my previous post. I had some trouble recalling the name of the place after visiting it in 2003. Dad had told me that it was called Two Rocks but a search on Google in the past found no information on this landmark except descriptions of a region in Western Australia of the same name. I wasn’t fully convinced of the Two Rocks name till I finally found confirmation here.

Face Off

Face Off
This was taken along one of the beaches of Western Australia as my dad and I headed north of Perth (towards the Pinnacles Desert) during our trip there in November 2003. The face-like shape of the rock was already interesting on its own right. Little did we realise that the “hair” was home to a nest of seagulls! I caught this shot of one of the gulls “facing-off” with the rock, a big print of which now hangs decorating the wall in my bedroom 🙂

Update 25 Sep 2007: This picture has been entered in the latest Photo Friday Challenge titled “The Beach”. Please vote for me if you like this shot 🙂

Updates for the next 3 weeks or so will be a little slow as I am now busy preparing for a career-related exam. Do bear with me for the time being!

The above was taken quite a while ago at the Botanical Gardens in Singapore. I chanced upon it while selecting pictures for an upcoming public exhibition (more on that later if I get selected ;)). I like the deep green of the pond which was achieved using a polarizing filter. Kudos to dearest CY again for the title inspiration 🙂
