The lighthouse @ War Bay

[kuching]

This is my second time to this place. The first time when I came here, I was stung by wasps. So, my mission to photograph this small light house has to postponed until June 16. In this trip, my friend, Andrew & my cousin, Methos joined me to this old Chinese cemetery where the light house is located next to it. It is facing the South China Sea.

In this trip, Andrew unexpectedly photographed a black shadow near the light house. I don't think there is a ghost in the day light....so no idea what it is. (will post that photo when he send his photo to me)

Hi kuching, why is this place known as War Bay? Was there a war erupted between the British colonists and the natives here before?

No idea...I found out the name from the map.

A strange looking image took by my friend, Andrew at a lighthouse near a cemetery. Is it a ghost? Or just the flare? We were shocked when we saw that shadow through the screen of the DSLR camera. We tried to re-capture this image by standing at the same position & took a few shots, but we failed to get such a "ghostly figure".

looks like a flare...maybe...
