Jakarta 2005 - Hours Before Sunrise

These shots were made the morning of January 2nd, 2005. I wasn't planning on shooting anything then, being very tired and all I spent my night at a hotel looking for a good night's sleep. I wasn't even bring any camera with me. But as I woke up very early in the morning (partly due to my sleeping early the night before) the scene was just fantastic. Luckily someone brought a FZ10, much to my comfort.

The shot was taken with a FZ10 without a tripod or any filters at all. I rest the camera on the ledge of the window, using its own strap to adjust the angle of shooting. While the results are definitely not a keeper, I think it was decent enough for a halfhearted effort :)
