Together or each

Together or Each

Mobile phone services surely need a lot of infrastructure. Each of provider is on the race to fulfill the coverage area. The photograph shown the several BTS from several mobile phone provider build up in exactly the same one area (differentialized only by building). As one of the main infrastructure, BTS is a must do build to cover the area, providing signal for their users. The problem is if the case like in the photograph, do they have to create their own BTS tower instead to having one suitable tower for all of them so they not sacrificing the beauty of open air. Or it's just a simple rivalry in the world of mobile phone competition to gain a lot of customers?

Traditional Market Entrance

This is one of the traditional markets owned by local government. The interesting one is that the photo shown the small alley as the entry to the market itself. Yes that is small alley as the only one entrance for the shoppers. The entrance wide is smaller than the signboard.

On the signboard:

PEMERINTAH KOTA BANDUNG-->City of Bandung Government
DINAS PENGELOLAAN PASAR-->Market Management Service Section
PASAR CIHAPIT-->Cihapit Traditional Market
Jl. Cihapit No. 5 A-->5th Cihapit Street
Bandung

Parking Man

Unlike in the western country, in my country Parking retribution especially in the public or main street for the frontliner (on the field) held by an operator which is called parking man (person with the yellow suit in my photo). The main functions or the job descriptions for this man are:
1. To arrange the car or motorcycle in the appropriate parking space and
2. To collect the retribution or parking fee directly from the driver.
Parking fee for 1 car for the first 2 hours: 10 to 20 cents depends on location or city.
Parking fee for 1 motorcycle for the first 2 hours: 5 to 10 cents depends on location or city.
Chain flow for the retribution money:
People who used/driver-->Parking Man-->Head of Group or Location-->Local Government Staff who in charge.

City Giant

Again I bring you the image of my city development. The apartment (big building in the photograph) rise in the middle of common house groups. It looks like a Giant compare to surroundings. For certain people to look at this image say that it is a common thing. But I think for Bandung my city it is rather unusual because the city from my opinion suited being called as modern village or small modern city rather than using metropolitan city element (the apartment). Because it used to be a village a long time ago, placed in higher land (approx. 709 meters from sea surface) and surrounded by mountains. But the local government seems to be changing the goal of city development don’t they? Following the modernization? Globalization?

Food Selling Cart

This is the food selling cart of most popular and most favorite snack food for mostly Indonesia People, which is called "Gorengan" or in English we can say Fried Snack. It is being sold using cart just like in the photograph and peddling around the neighborhood or in the public street.
The snack consist of:
-Fried 'banana covered with flour' which is called "Pisang Goreng"
-Fried 'tofu mix with sprout covered with flour' which is called "Tahu Isi Goreng"
-Fried 'fermented soybean cake covered with flour' which is called "Tempe Goreng"
-Fried 'cabbage mix with carrot and flour' which is called "Bakwan Goreng"
-Fried 'cassava' which is called "Singkong Goreng"
and many other kind.
For each kind, if you have 50 cents (us currency) you will get 7 until 9 pieces depending the place where you buy the "Gorengan". Quite delicious food but greasy because of cooking oil.

Tree part 2

Corridor of big trees beautifying the whole form of a street. White stripe in each tree being used as a warning signal indicates that there is a tree in that area. This signal helping for the rider/driver whenever they across the street in the dark night even the street now already equipped with street lamp.

City Development

Development ahead towards village countryside. See the double construction crane in the far, the green plantation is paddy rice field. For the photograph again i'm using HDR technique using the real jpeg.

Tree part 1

Nice place for jogging isn't it? Would you believe that this place is in the middle of the city? And would you believe that the picture below is in the middle of the city too?

Thank God that no one pass under the tree when the three collapse because of heavy rain combined with strong wind blow.
Below is the original photo and above I'm using HDR technique using exposure arrangement on the real jpeg.
