Travelogue: UK part III : Camera Obscura, Edinburgh, Scotland

I see me through you :D

Assalamualaikum, salam sejahteraaaa.. Kepada anda semua moga bahagia~~ Hehe.. Intro kasik nyanyi sket la :D How's your Ramadhan going so far? Ramadhan here in Egypt is a bit challenging for me because of it's hot weather in summer, plus the pre-internship program that we have to be involved. And I currently doing my HO training(wink) in ER which known as the busiest department all over the time. The doctors in that department are also rigid :D They won't allow us to go back early unless it is 5pm :| But I did escape sometime though :D..

Okay lah. Did you guys aware of my picture above? :D :D Well, that was me in Camera Obscura, Edinburgh, Scotland. We went to Edinburgh on April 8th at 11pm and arrived in St. Andrew bus station around 8.15am. However, the 8hours journey fade away just like that as we had this for our breakfast. Tee Heee :D

HOMEMADE NASI LOMAK

Entrance to Camera Obscura and World of Illusion.

A camera obscura (meaning literally "darkened chamber") is a device for projecting an image on a screen, using either a lens or pinhole.

History of Camera Obscura :

The first record of the camera obscura principle goes back to Ancient Greece, when Aristotle noticed how light passing through a small hole into a darkened room produces an image on the wall opposite, during a partial eclipse of the sun. However, it may be much older than that. Stone age man may have used the principle of the camera obscura to produce the world's first art in cave drawings.
Later on, in the 10th Century, the Arabian scholar Al Hassan used the camera obscura to demonstrate how light travels in straight lines. In the 13th Century, the camera obscura was used by astronomers to view the sun.
In Victorian times, much larger public camera obscuras became popular seaside attractions, where spying on courting couples became a popular pastime.

There was 10% less for student price. We reached to this place by walking. Pfffftttt... It was soooooo tiring to the max you know as we had to climb all our way up to the Camera Obscura because it is located on the top of the hill. Nasib baik tak tergolek ke belakang balik sebab perut dah berat dengan Nasi Lemak. Heshhh.. Ini semua gara2 pakcik bus tu la yang told us, " There's no bus going to Obscura. You can just walk along that road and within 5minutes you'll reach there" IT WASN'T 5MINUTES Y'ALL BESIDES THERE WAS ACTUALLY A BUS GOING NEAR TO THAT PLACE. Haiiyyyooo..

The hell. Cakap banyak gambar takda kan. Haha.. Let's troll peeps.!

Sampai2 terus naik tingkat 5. Why? Because Camera Obscura will be starting soon. :D

But not as soon as we thought. Haihh..

So, let's enjoy the rooftop panoramas' first :)
