The scene at the beginning arrived #1

I have said about Aceh Jaya repeatedly, here is the complete place to see the ocean, and today is really challenging. Well, the weather is indeed erratic here now, sometimes it's sunny but the clouds comes suddenly and storm happen. I really want to try to see how the storm happen even though it was a little scared for me. Just brave to plan, or brave to take action ? I have to make a choice. Ha ha.

The scene at the beginning arrived #2

And today happened, I choice to brave see it. From Lamno, Jaya District, I plan to go to the flower garden at first. Do you still remember the flower garden that I had told you yesterday ? Well, I want to go there because I heard the Dutch House was ready built, and I think this could be an additional information for all the people. But when on my trip, the weather changes suddenly while heading there. Without thinking much, I changed my goal immediately and arrived at this beach.

This beach, called Kuala Mersi Beach, located in Kuala Mersi Village, in Krueng Sabee District, Aceh Jaya Regency. According to some information from my friends, you can see the beauty of the sunset clearly on this beach, as well as natural phenomena such as big waves and how between sea waves and river water meets. If you come here in the morning, you can see the calm sea water clearly, or if you come here during the day you can see the same color between blue sky and the blue sea. Complete, isn't it? Like any other beaches in Aceh, this beach was also becomes one of the victim area by the tsunami in Aceh in 2004. But now Kuala Merisi offers a beautiful panorama that is suitable to be visited by family. Besides the natural beauty that is available, the access to this beach is very easy.

Well, back to my story about the storm that will happen. Today, I was here, when I arrived here, I saw in the western still a bit of the afternoon sun starting covered with thick clouds, the sun's began to dim because covered by clouds. Whereas in the east, I saw the atmosphere getting darker, clouds began to gathering. The wind slowly began tight. I know the storm will happen soon. And this is the right time for me to capture it.

The most I'm waiting for is when the cloud is really gathered and accompanied by lightning, but I saw the lightning doesn't appear, I want my scenery capture can be more dramatic later, but I'm to be willing because that moment never happened. I just see the thick clouds only and signs of heavy rain began to fall. At the place I stood, when capturing the moment, I felt the rain start to fall heavy, and there you could see the surface of the sea was starting look dark. The waves started high due to strong winds.

I tried to hang on for a while here for see it, I still wanted the lightning visible, but I felt the rain fell more heavy. Do you know ? This beach is a ferocious beach, and Local Government do not allow anyone to swim and make a recreation here. Some events of sinking and being swept away by the waves made the Government prohibit anyone from doing activities on this beach. Moreover, this is a meeting of large rivers and the sea waves. Of course, it is very dangerous, because there are so many deep trenches are formed.

I remember how I was so engrossed in capturing every moment here, I finally realized with a firm call from several people behind me who ordered me to stay away from the beach immediately. According to their story, people are often amazed by this scene, so that they unconsciously approach the sea. Especially when I came here it was very late and going to dark. Naturally, they are worried because they don't want any more victims here. Strangely, when I entered here I did not see anyone else at the guard house. But I'm grateful they reminded me and even more grateful because I can get many photos here.

Thank you for your kind words. I see some like yourself model their approach to their post off of mine. I know I have encouraged some to do the very thing you are doing in your posts. It is good for reader/viewer to have a better understanding of the photographs you post. You do that, including what your experiencing. I am pleased to see your progress.

Oh how relaxing but also dangerous can be a storm over the sea. Beautiful photos, very inspiring for me as an artist.
