lina said...

oh wow... I just love the rainbow photos (and of course all the other photos are good shots as well =D). Yar... rainbows = God's promises =)

lina said...

oh wait... care to share the secret to the magic tap, please?

HL said...

yltan: Too bad it's not my beemer. And I didn't even get to drive it. :P

lina: There's no secret. It was just there and I took a shot of it... OK, here's how it works: There's a transparent plastic pipe carrying water up to the tap, and the water flows down on the outside of the pipe. Voila! Simple trick.

lina said...

hah... like that ar? *scratching head* ok... I will meditate and stare at the photo when I have the time and try to see the transparent pipe... hmmm... your photo taking skills must have improved tremendously... ;-)

1. When I was at the rainbow pic... The Carpenters were singing 'when there's no getting over that rainbow' lol

2. Seen the 'magic' water tap before.. somewhere..

3. If I'm to take pic from the car like that.. I'll probably have to say bye bye to my camera.. :p

4. great pics!! Wonder when I can start taking pictures like that. Love the 'steaming' bowl...

How can one tell that it's a beemer? All I see is a silver car.

HL said...

lina: No need to meditate, just believe that there is a pipe there.

sue: Speechless? Thanks.

ch: Cats just love me, what can I say? The tap is an optical illusion la. See my reply #1 above.

cw: The yummy food was at the famous Kwong Heng in Bidor. The tap is an optical illusion la. See my reply #1 above.

el'z: The toes were looking very snug somewhere in Camerons. Yea, I didn't notice the cobwebs until I saw the pic on the big screen. It was drizzling, so I just took a quick shot and ran.

jc: Just stick the camera out of the window and fire away. You might have to stick half of your upper body out too. It's a great feeling.

duh: A car enthusiast would be able to tell by the shape of the fender and maybe the signal light. You can also spot the blue-and-white monogram on the wheel hub.

love the road thrills, though I'm partially concerned about the safety of your equipment hanging out the window!

HL said...

el'z: I need to call in CSI to id the toes...

May I repeat your order... and would you like ketchup or chili sauce to go with it?

SC: Yea, and not just the equipment... I was also hanging out of the window... lovely feeling of the wind in my face.
