Eid Day

Location: Oro-Oro Ombo Cemetery, Madiun

Time: August 19, 2012

This what my family, me and my parents, did during Eid day; sent Yasin for our lovely (rip) Aprilia Shintasari.

After having sholat eid together and met neighbours, we went to the cemetery. My parents read Yasin letter for my sister. And I captured their photos. 

I thought my sister (if she still alive among us) will understood for what I did (capturin’ my parents pictures). Not only because I and she were ‘rock ‘n roll’ sisters, but also she loved photography (capturing or be captured by). 

We miss you, Sister! :)

Standing Reading

Time: 07.12 am. August 14, 2012

Yesterday I was going home by train. My Sri Tanjung will departed on 07.35 am. So, after I arrived, checked in, looked for my seat, I was going out with my camera. Walking in the rail-road platform, then I saw three officers standing at the east. One of them was reading newspaper. When I arrived near, the other (whom in a squatting reading potition) were going to read the newspaper also.

Reading Everywhere Project

This was her idea. Someday I read and saw about her photo-shot in her blog. She did candid-photo-shot people whom read in everywhere. 

Nice!

Sometimes I thought Indonesians have a lower reading interest. But, by her pictures I realized that wasn’t, absolutelly, right. I could see a lot of people, actually, love to read. It’s just me that not considered them well. 

So, I joined her idea to candidly shot people whom read (in everywhere).

Why I made this blog?

If. If someday some or all the people whom I take the pictures know and ask me; “what are you doing?”

“Taking in your reading activity pictures?”

“What for?”

“I collect pictures that contain people whom love to read everywhere and everytime.”

“Where can I see yours?”

“You can visit my lalivrelire.blogspot.com. :) “

La Livre Lire.

It is Francaise. Meaning “Reading Book”. Actually i want to use a simple title, like; project reading, reading project, etc. But blogspot said that they’ve been used by others. So, I was soo confused. 

So I picked from France language. Lire means read. Livre means book. I even not quite sure whether the ‘tenses’ was rite. Hahaha. So do not taking ‘the tenses thing’ seriously, yes? :D

-- So, welcome :) --
