Weekly Photo Challenge: H2O ( House of Dancing Water )

Water sprung up from all sides as the show went on.

The pavilion was raised suddenly from under the performing platform.dscf0674

Dancers gathered round and the main actor and actress went into the pavilion.

This was part of the show House of Dancing Water in Macau.

Water is of course the main theme.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Rare ( Offering)

This week’s DP photo challenge is Rare.

I have never posted this photo as it was inadvertently focused; I should have focused it on the dragon head.DSCF0625

The picture was taken in a temple in Macau.

I have seen incense and oranges being offered in temple; but never have I seen the offerings placed on a wooden dragon boat like altar.

Isn’t this rare?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Half Light ( Reflection )

The photo was taken at the Fortress Hill of Macau.

It shows part of the Museum alongside a reflecting pool.DSCF0774A

You may wonder what the first image is; I have flipped the image so that the reflection is on top.

The second image is the original photo, with the reflection and the building dividing the photo almost into two equal halves.DSCF0774

I like the very clear details of the reflection.

 

 

Weekly Photo Challenge: Dance

The theme for this week’s DP photo challenge is Dance.

Taking motion photography is not one of my favorites; I usually take still photos of landscape or architecture only.DSCF0722

This photo is an exception; it was taken in Macau, in the House of Dancing Water performance.

The multi-colored water jets were coming up and the dancers were dancing as they were in the rain.

I have set my shutter speed slow so that the photo gives a sense of motion for the jets and the dancers.
