PIXELicious! Yummy!
Isn't it satisfying when no pixels are being thrown out and wasted? ;D
Good job Romy. Maybe the shrike just want to say bye before you leave.

Another set of pixel-sharp photos from the Mastah.
It's just so nice when you don't need to crop your shots -- what you see is what you get (WYSIWYG). ;D

Fantastic captures Mastah, the sharpness and details are truly amazing. All of them are popping out of my monitor, the 3D effect is so beautiful.  |

Nice shot with great details.
Hope to visit this place next June when I go back for Holiday.
Maybe not a good timing because of typhoon season.
