Hi Mimpimanis. Please tell me more! What sort of problems do the dogs face there? I understand that Lombok is a mainly muslim community. With a different belief system I am curious to know what their relationship with dogs is like. Do they keep them as pets? Do they eat dog meat? I...

Kadek thank you so much for your insight and response to my questions! It is most appreciated! Undoubtedly different cultures look at pet ownership differently and your post gives me a much better understanding of the Balinese relationships with dogs and that's exactly what I want to do -...

It's a pretty sad plight, isn't it offshore? :( I'm starting to discover more about the Balinese' attitudes to dogs. Their hindu faith believes that criminals etc get reincarnated as dogs which is why they don't really have much time for them. The Balinese don't make it a custom to eat dogs...

That's great bolli - didn't have that one either! It seems there's quite a few different groups already set up in Bali to help the dogs which is absolutely fantastic! Did any of your friends have a native Balinese dog? I saw one or two different breeds while I was there but the overwhelming...

Thanks kucing! I hadn't seen that one! Will check them out. Anybody have a Bali dog as a pet? I'd love to know what kind of personality they have!

I’ve just returned from my third trip to Bali last weekend. I’m a freelance photographer and asked my husband if we could go for a strictly photog (no kids allowed) holiday – and he said yes! We love Bali – the pace, the peace, the weather, the culture and the FOOD! They have the best yellow...

It looks like morning is the best time to get a clear view of Agung? Can anyone tell me what the view is like from Sideman, Selat, Bebandem or Amlapura?

I'm surprised that you can get such great photos from almost any place on the island! There is hope for me yet. :D Absolutely love those aerial shots!

Thanks Dug - I will definitely check it out. Thanks for the great directions too! I've written them in my journal so I don't forget!

Pa Yan unfortunately I'm only doing the east coast - there's so much to see and do and not enough time to photograph it all in one week! But I will keep Pacung Indah on my list of things to do next time! Beautiful photo by the way! Hey Charlie - you're a long way from home! I put all my pics...

Thanks for your feedback FreoGirl (I'm from Rockingham!). Can you really see Agung from Lombok? I'm hoping to get the sun behind some of the mountain at sunset but it will depend on the angle it goes down this time of the year. Anyone else know of a good vantage point?

I'm off to Bali in about 4 weeks on a strictly photography holiday - woohoo! I'm planning a shoot for both sunset and sunrise of Mt Agung. My current plans are to stay overnight in Candidasa and get a local guide to drive me to a vantage point to view Agung. I'm after an image that is clearly...
