Landscape @ Bukit Beruntung 2

It was a year ago, in April 2010 that I came to this same spot photographing this unique landscape using compact digital camera. Now, after nearly a year, I came back to photograph the same landscape using DSLR, with two of my colleagues.


The purpose of the visit was to evaluate the area for a trial to re-vegetate the barren land. The soil is acidic (due to the existance of some mineral, not sure what type of mineral as i'm not mineralogist hehe...) where only certain species of plants can survive. However, due to no surface cover, heavy rain and surface run-off has carved the barren land into some uncommon landscape (in a mini scale).



Black mineral...



Some species however survive with difficulties..



another surviving plant in this arid land...



Erosion carved the infertile land into mini canyon....



interesting landscape



Another species of surviving plant


Besides the natural landscape, the actions of other photographer are also interesting to be captured.


See you all in the next post.
