The Head of Garuda - Bali

Garuda Wishnu Kencana


I toke this picture on 2003. It was the last time I visited Bali. Yes, it is the gigantic bronze statue of the head of Garuda in Garuda Wishnu Kencana area, Jimbaran, Bali, Indonesia. It is a spectacular tourism place in Bali, where there are two big bronze statues. Another one is the statue of Wishnu (Vishnu), one of great gods of Hindu.

I got the picture with Nikon F-10, a celluloid manual camera, and scanned it with CanoScanLIDE 20 to have it digitalized. I just cropped the head, gave it yellow outer glow, and replaced the original background with a yellow-black gradient circle layer.

I thought of impression when I choose that black color as background. Glowing and gradient yellow color will make an aura effect of the object. The head of Garuda should look brave and powerful, as it is the riding bird of Wishnu. [skd]

Photography and graphic designing are funny hobbies. That’s what I feel when I’m doing with the pictures on this blog. Making wallpapers is just my first entry to those interests. The rest is a process of learning, appreciation, exploration and creativity. The results are more than just materials. They could be translations of self-actualization upon the beauties before me.
