The city took its name from the hill. Mandalay Hill is known for its abundance of pagodas and monasteries, and has been a major pilgrimage site for Burmese Buddhists for nearly two centuries. At the top of the hill is the Sutaungpyei iterally wish-fulfilling Pagoda. A panoramic view of Mandalay from the top of Mandalay Hill alone makes it worthwhile to attempt a climb up its stairways. To get a sense of Mandalay’s pancake-flat sprawl, climb the 240 metres hill that breaks it. The barefooted walk up covered stairways on the hill's southern slope is a major part of the experience passing through and around a colourful succession of prayer and shopping opportunities. The climb takes a good 30 minutes, but much longer if you allow for stops en route. The summit viewpoint is especially popular at sunset when young monks converge on foreigners for language practice.

 

Just outside the North of downtown, Mandalay Hill which summit is 240 m above the surrounding plain is the natural watch-tower for the visitors to watch sunrise or sunset over the city plains. Every one who arrived in Mandalay, the ancient capital of Myanmar, usually goes to Mandalay Hill, the landmark of Mandalay, which overlooks the city.

 

Mandalay is de op een na grootste stad van Myanmar en ligt aan de voet van de 240 m hoge Mandalay Heuvel. In vroegere tijden was Mandalay echter niet de hoofdstad van deze streek. De legende vertelt dat de Boeddha zelf een voorspelling heeft gedaan dat onderaan de Mandalay Heuvel een machtige stad gesticht zou worden. Echter pas in 1858 besloot koning Mingdon om gehoor te geven aan deze legende en ontmantelde hij de toenmalige hoofdstad Amarapura en verhuisde alles naar Mandalay. Vandaag de dag is Mandalay weer opgebouwd tot een machtige stad die de verbinding vormt tussen alle handel tussen Noord- en Centraal-Myanmar. Ook is Mandalay een religieus centrum, waar u duizenden pagoda’s, tempels en kloosters kunt bewonderen. De allerbelangrijkst is echter de Maha Muni Pagode, waar een kolossaal boeddhabeeld bedekt met een dikke laag bladgoud te bezichtigen is. Daarnaast is een beklimming van de Mandalay Hill, vlak voor zonsondergang een unieke ervaring. Via een trap van meer dan 1700 treden is deze beklimming een ware uitdaging, maar de beloning is groot. Vanaf dit hoge punt heeft u een uitmuntend uitzicht heeft over het landschap, waartussen de Irrawaddy rivier zich een weg kronkelt.

Taken yesterday, here in Yukigaya. They have this Summer festival where kids and old people alike dances to the beat of the Japanese bells and drums.

This is how it goes. List 10 things that your friends may or may not know about you, but that are true. Tag ten people and be sure to let them know they’ve been tagged (a quick message will do). Don’t forget to link back to the person who tagged you. Post a picture in your stream with the 10 facts and list your tagged people :)

 

So here goes..

 

01. My name is Randy Alboria Yu, 31 years old, married to Tata 3 years ago and we have no kids yet.

 

02. My father is half-Chinese and my mother has a Spanish blood. Ironically, I don't speak both languages but I can speak a total of 4 other languages. Filipino, English, Japanese and our own dialect which is Cebuano (Bisaya).

 

03. I hailed from a small town in Northern Mindanao called Nasipit but left it when I was 16 to study in UP Diliman. There, I became a member of a Fraternity, Melo and attyubag are some of my brods.

 

04. My mother worked in Tokyo for more than 20 years and I followed her here in 2001. I am presently working in Gabon Embassy as an Assistant of the Ambassador but I have worked as Embassy driver; a Club waiter, a bartender and a manager; a construction worker (painter); a Club DJ and a host (hosto). :P I also worked as an NGO's Operations Manager, one that facilitates the first Filipino caregivers here in Japan.

 

05. I paint with watercolor until I was 25, and I will try to paint again.

 

06. In sports, I play Basketball, Tennis, Volleyball, Baseball, Football, Badminton and Table-tennis, and with it I considered myself athletic. :P I also play Airsoft.

 

07. I love to sing and I love to dance. Sometimes I annoy/amaze my wife with moves only my mother would appreciate.. :P

 

08. I am a joker by nature, my jokes depend on my mood. Sometimes I crack a joke that will send all people around me laughing but sometimes.. I'm the only one who laughs at it.

 

09. I am a Mitsubishi lover, my first car was a Mitsubishi Pajero and I currently drive a Mitsubishi GTO.

 

10. My brain's range is varying, it can be that of a 10-year old, playing video games all day with not a care in the world or that of a 50-year old talking business or attending meetings and making points that my boss is suppose to do but he just can't because of a super hectic schedule.

At the language border

I couldn't be more honored and excited to announce that Ryan Dyar and I have been invited to join Bruce Omori and Tom Kuali'i in offering a once-in-a-lifetime Extreme Exposure Volcano Photography Workshop and Tour. The final polish is being put on the details, but the calendar has been locked in for October 20th-25th. This is going to be a land, air, and sea assault on the incredible spectacle of the ongoing eruption of Kilauea, which recently returned to the ocean for the first time in 3 years creating life-altering photography experiences.

I met Bruce and Tom of Extreme Exposure 7 years ago when I took their Photography Tour photographing the ocean entry for the first time. Not only was it the single most amazing thing I've ever seen, I've been exceptionally fortunate to be able to call Bruce and Tom dear friends since then.

As you can see in this image of Bruddah Tom, the edge of a volcano can be a dangerous place to spend time if you don't know what you're doing. Having the experience of Tom and Bruce at your disposal allows you to get into the absolute best positions to capture images of natures most amazing spectacle because they understand the shifting conditions better than almost anyone. If you've seen their work here on 500px or visited their gallery in Hilo, you know that Bruce and Tom are two of the best lava photographers ever born. I learned the hard way that shooting lava is like trying to speak Swahili. You know it's a language, but you have no idea what's going on. Best to have an interpreter with you to ensure that you have success. Through decades of friendship, kindness, and contribution to the Hilo community, Bruce and Tom have developed connections that will allow us to visit the flow via helicopter and boat to get an even broader perspective of this incredible event.

If you follow me at all, you know that my mentor and dearest friend Ryan Dyar is my inspiration, my rock, my boo. He's one of the best teachers of photography and post processing that has ever been born, and one of my all-time favorite people. We had an immensely good time on our workshop last summer in Glacier National Park, and I can't WAIT to share the memories of this new workshop with him.

So we have Tom, a world class shooter with an incredible eye for lava compositions and a 6th sense for bravely getting into amazing locations while keeping everything safe. Bruce, who understands how the flow works, how to shoot it, and how to show YOU how to shoot it better than anyone I've ever met. And Ryan, who is a creative genius and world class instructor. What, pray tell, do I bring to the table that qualifies me to join the instructor corp for this Extreme Exposure Workshop? Well, I've been wondering the same thing... but I think I finally figured it out. I'm fat and I'm pretty old, so while hiking out across the flow, if I fall in and die a death of liquified bone and skin, you should probably turn and go a slightly different way.

We really hope to see you there. For information and details on the tour, send an email to: info@extremeexposure.com

This is Batman. The title is a reference to Koko the gorilla, who was taught American sign language. She combined words that she knew to refer to a kitten as "all ball". I've always loved that.

"You've got a way with words

Maybe it's charming

Text during the party

Sure that could suffice

You know just what to say

Write letters for me

But it's kinda boring

When I can't see your face

 

You call to flatter me all night, all night

But I don’t know if you can speak my, speak my

 

Body language (Do ya)

Get impatient (Would ya)

Hate it if I wanna keep a little of this tension

I'm not saying (That I)

Want you baby (But ya)

Make me question all other forms of communication

Pause the adrenaline

Thinking you know me

Baby, that's so sweet

Where do I begin?

Don't wanna throw you off

But I can't just play along

So tell me if I should pick up when

 

You call to flatter me all night, all night

But I don’t know if you can speak my, speak my

What's loudest is what isn't said

You shower me with compliments

Yeah, look at me with common sense

(Look at me, look at me now)

What's loudest is what isn't said

The joke's on me, let's not pretend

I want to want you more than friends

But baby, can you comprehend my

 

Body language (Do ya)

Get impatient (Do you get impatient?)
