High School Final Project : "All that remained, After Disaster"

     After being hit by such a great eruption in 2010 and then, what is left around the volcano Merapi is in ruins the trees and just human settlements. Besides the effects of this disastrous impact on the rivers which flow of cold lava from Merapi.

     Here I present some photo documentation after the 2010 eruption of Merapi. And these photographs are the work of my final project at graduation from high school. And in this photo series there is one photograph which was awarded "Pratita Adhi Karya" of SMSR Yogyakarta. One thing that makes these photographs more meaningful to me personally.

     Enjoy!

Little Golden Frog..

On a sunny afternoon, I walked the riverside. Looking for a good thing to be photographed ..

After quite a while photographing the river, I'm taking a break in the rocks there on the riverbank.

And it turns out I actually find that quite beautiful animals to be photographed. the golden frog (of course only the color that I mean, lol). and unique frog is very friendly, because I was able to shoot at MFD of my lens (EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM) which is about 38cm @ 70mm without making it out of me.

So, I very freely take pictures ..
