Funny Graffiti

This graffiti was spotted at Bandung train station, East sector wall. As a frequent user of this train station, this is the first time I saw this graffiti. No wonder, this sector are rarely to roamed by public, because most in this sector are repairing and maintenance facility. only the train station employee and few people are used to be in this sector. 
I'm not really sure about what this graffiti tried to tell but I like the cute little train playing the remote control. It's quite strange tough, seeing this "kids play" graffiti, as the people around this spot are mostly adult and some "oil and grease  macho"  type mechanics. But it really fill the blank wall with some fun indeed..

Gedung Merdeka -- "The Concordia "

This is the world most famous architectural art deco in Bandung. Named "Gedung Merdeka" this building is an icon of Bandung. Built in 1895 by two famous architect C.P. Wolff Schoemaker and Van Galen Last, they gave a name "Societiet Concordia" for this building, at the very first beginning this building was a country club for the upper Holland society lived in Bandung on their occupational period. As the history continued, this building was  used fot hosting 3 times Aian-African Summit.
Rich with historical record, this building is still well preserved and maintain by the local Government. Now, this building is a Museum and a paradise for photo hunting, especially for the couple who want to make their wedding photo album.

Spider Web

Oh dear,... this city are definitely need more spaces. Space for the road, for the side walk, the stores, and the electric cable line!! it's everywhere and it looks like a spider web. This view are captured at the juction road in front of Cimahi Goverment Office and Town Center ("Alun-alun Cimahi). The satelite city at the west side of Bandung, 20 km away from the center of Bandung. So far, the traffic are very well controlled, but it won't last any longer. The unbalanced space distribution are the most famous problem in major of city in here.

I Know What U Did Last Summer


Naah, its not what u think about this man, just my imaginative thought, just trying to find "a bell rings" to suit this scene. By the way about this picture, this man is a garbage collector, living from a trash thrown away around the street, and sell the re-useable material to the recycling company. This man is a really big help for the city, a gentleman who willing to live in the path that most people run away from. I think the credits should be pointed for this kind of man, not them who sat "undirtly" behind the sanitary office desk.
Capturing all the things happened in this city, Bandung. As an effort to contribute something, by giving the other point of view for this city, the view from a lens. Hope it will make a different, and the street around Jalan Sudirman, are somewhere to start.
