This was a very nice wedding set in the valleys of Kiulu at Poturidong. I used to live in Tamparuli and I had many friends and classmates from Kiulu. It was, for me, a mini reunion of some sort, meeting up with old friends and relatives. I think I had too much fun taking photos of the couple that a woman kept hugging me...later to find out she was not quite 'right there'. The wedding party had a good laugh. The wedding was held at the Poturidong SDA church and moved on to the Kiulu Multipurpose Hall for reception. Tatie, these series is just a sneak peak kio.
Taking a year's break in Sabah before going back to Canberra...my goal is to never put on long pants the whole year!

D'Junction's Miss Kaamatan 1st Heat
It's quite sad that for this competition, it does not lead to a spot in the State Level Unduk Ngadau on May 31st at the KDCA. The girls are beautiful and talented. I hope that some of them will join their district level Unduk Ngadau pageants to get into the State Level one. These are some belated photos of the girls that made it into the grand finals of D'Junction's Miss Kaamatan 2008.

Penampang and Papar Countryside Photo Outing
My Canadian friend from KL came to Sabah for the weekend and I managed to spend some time taking her around the countryside. We covered the Babagon area and drove thru the backroads of Papar and Kinarut to try get some cool photos. These are some shots I took on our 4 hour excursion. Enjoy!
First stop: Timpangoh, where they grow pineapples, lemongrass and ginger
Drove till the end of the road at Timpangoh, got on a suspension bridge..managed to take one of Cheryl
Caught this little village girl while at Timpangoh
On the way down the hills of Timpangoh, I managed to use the 'reflection' element as suggested by Louis Pang during his Epson talk
Near the main Tambunan-KK road, we stopped by a traditional blacksmith; a dying trade
The sledge hammer that the blacksmith has been using since the 1960's
We stopped by Kinarut to get the small town feel and found this small barber shed under a raintree
Advertisement for job recruitment agencies to go work in KL and Singapore
Brooms sold at a Mom and Pop store in Kinarut
Buffalo: "What the hell?"
Till next time kitty..

Spurs' Miss Borneo 2008
This pageant had the most subsidiary titles and the most shows I have ever photographed. I think I shot over 14 gig of photos overall. After photographing a number of beauty pageants since I started working in this capacity, I have come to learn to analyse who might win a pageant. I also noticed that there are some contestants that are 'serial' contestants, going from one pageant to another. I am not judging them, but hey, this is only my observation. Currently, D'Junction organized their annual Miss Kaamatan 2008, and yes, familiar faces...I don't want to name 'em, but hey again, you will see their faces here anyway... Congratulations to the winners and contestants! See you again in another pageant!
