Street Paintings Gallery




This street gallery is located near the center post office in my city (Bogor, West Java, Indonesia). When I captured it, there’s no one around. I think the yellow flower painting make this shot is proper for MYM post. The bamboo trees on the back ground are just a little part of many trees inside Bogor Botanical Gardens.

A Sacred Moment

The most sacred moment in a wedding ceremony is when the groom saying ijab qabul (marriage vows). My husband captured the sacred moment of my cousin’s wedding.

How to Get Rid of Your Disuse in Safety

1.How to Get Rid of Paint 
Paint cans should not be placed in the curbside recycling bin because they are not a food grade material.
What to do: First, try to use up all of the paint if possible so there is no more than 1/4-inch of paint left in the bottom of the can. Let the paint can dry out by leaving the lid off before recycling it. When the can is blank (and completely dry), it is accepted as a scrap metal item and should be put in a scrap metal bin at a local drop-off facility.

2.How to Get Rid of Plastic Bags
According to various recycling facilities, plastic bags are by far the top irritation because not only do they waste time when they get jammed in the machines, but they can also break or damage the equipment.

What to do: If you totally cannot find any use for plastic bags around the house, the easiest way to dispose of plastic bags is to take them to a grocery store to be recycled properly.

3.How to Get Rid of Electronics
TVs, computers, printers, players, DVDs, cell phones and chargers, CDs, video and audio tapes, ink cartridges and other electronics that aren't being used anymore are known as "technotrash." Some of these items contain dangerous components like mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium, and brominated flame retardants.

What to do: Numerous manufacturers and retailers offer options to donate or recycle your electronics. AT&T, Best Buy, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, eBay, LG, Motorola, Nokia, Office Depot, Samsung, Sony and Verizon, for example, all offer recycling programs for consumers (as do plenty others). You can also find a local program through one of the many comprehensive websites devoted to helping consumers dispose of their electronics responsibly.

Yellow Things around Bogor Presidential Palace

Many international and national events have been held in this presidential palace. When there’s a big and important event inside the palace, the guarding and security around the palace will be much increased. I took these photos around the main entrance several days ago.

At that time, all Indonesia Governors from each province attended a meeting with the President. The yellow sign means: be careful to the vehicles that come in and out the palace.

I took the back side of the palace at different time, from Bogor Botanical Gardens.

The Railway

This winding railway looks like coming out from the thick woods. While my husband was driving, I held my pocket camera. Sometimes I can capture an interesting object like this railway. I don’t remember where the spot is, but it’s somewhere in Malangbong City (West Java Province, Indonesia).
