“A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.”
― Ansel Adams
I am not a professional photographer, yet I’m really into photography. I’m just a hobbyist who doesn’t know much about photography techniques. I just love taking pictures, snap here and there, snap this and that, even some random things can be so interesting to me. Sometimes I take pictures using my brother’s DSLR camera, sometimes using my tiny digital camera, and mostly using my phone camera (Does this count as photography? 😛 ).
This picture I took when I and my friends visited Hairos Waterpark. It is located at Jl. Letjend Djamin Ginting, KM 14.5 Medan, North Sumatra. It took about 30 minutes to get there by car from the centre of the city of Medan where I live. Actually there was no story behind this picture. I was just curious how lovely it would be if I captured the picture of the pouring water with the perfect sky-clouds-trees background. And snap! I loved it.
Hairos Waterpark is one of many water-parks in Medan. The facilities here are well maintained and the scenery is just great, all is green surrounding. It is a nice place to visit if you come to my beloved city, Medan.
Well, maybe this is the shortest post I’ve ever written for English Friday Challenge, but hopefully it’s still worth a read. 🙂

Icha, what camera did you use to snap this picture?
My old Samsung Galaxy before I bought a new one, haha. Is the resolution low? 😀
No… actually, it is very detailed.
It is not what camera you are using, but the person behind the camera is what matter.
Agreed, Kak Jo 🙂
Baik-baik hpnya kecipratan air. xD
Oke sip, Mba Dev 🙂
Whoa Medaaan, I miss that city so 🙂 my Mom and Dad are from North Sumatra.

For a hobbyist, your pic is superb 👍
Thank you so much, Mba 🙂
I didn’t know you live in Medan Cha! On a hot day, it’s very refreshing to look at this picture. It’s 35 C today in Melbourne 😣
Yeah Mba, I live in this crowded yet lovely city 🙂 35 C! So hot. In Medan as well, it’s 34 C today. We better eat ice cream, Mba Mikan 😀
My gosh, I am glad that summer here is officially gone at athe end of Feb. it’s unbearable!!
Glad to hear that 🙂 Btw Mba Mikan, have you ever attended Jacaranda festival? As far as I know, it’s usually held in Perth & Sydney in late spring Oct/Nov. CMIIW.
Not yet Cha. I’ve not been to Perth but have been to Sydney a couple of times, just not in Spring. Perhaps I’ll try to catch it on my journey home through Perth. Why the curiosity on this festival?
Oh, I see. Idk Mba, I just love that beautiful tree. So I think it must be fun to be on that festival hehe 😀
Ahh I see Cha. I understand the feeling:-)
Perfectly captured, Icha 😊 Love it!
Btw, Medan – Penang was only a one-hour-flight. Would love to have you around 😉
Thank you, Mba Andin 🙂 Ikr, Mba. I’ll think about it 🙂
