Today I have the opportunity to keep a diary and I will spread my potential this time to this large community. And this is my first daily post on the STEEM SCHOOLS COMMUNITY.

"And do you realize that everything that happens in this world is a destiny from God. I realized that the journey of all humans is inseparable from God's intervention." - @New-spirit.

Today is Sunday. It's a great holiday. And I saw the sun began to appear on the eastern horizon, I immediately got ready to hunt for insects, and I would shoot insects for satisfaction and as content.

It's 9 in the morning. I had made an appointment with a friend to go to a village not too far from the city. It is said that the village we went to was about 10 KM from the city of Lhokseumawe, Aceh, Indonesia.

Before leaving, I took the time to take pictures of my two sons, namely Rajja and Rayyan (babies). The two of them were still in the room, and Rayyan was a cute little baby, he was still fast asleep at that time. Meanwhile, Rajja takes a bath in the morning and it smells good.

This is a photo of my two children.

Before I go looking for insects, I have breakfast with a nice slice of toast. And I am also accompanied by a cup of fragrant tea. Drinking tea in the morning will leave you feeling refreshed and your spirits will immediately rise.

My breakfast, a slice of toast and sweet tea.

I am a person who has no other job apart from photographing unique little animals in the open. Often I hunted insects in the forest and in pristine villages.

Hunting for insects and other unique animals is not easy. I need to have a lot of patience to do this job. But, I believe in the phenomenon of independence that occurs in nature, if I believe in my work, then the results will also be good and run well.

I am a person who has freedom of thought. And I use strong telepathic feelings in arguing with the natural surroundings, including how to live with humans beside us, don't overdo it in determining an absolute idea or thought. Because life needs neutral relevance.

"Sometimes I am silent, there are even times when I speak to my heart."

Around 10.30 WIB, I arrived at a place in Blang Weu Village, Aceh. The village is a village that still has natural forests. And the village is a village that is still beautiful. There are still many people who have jobs in agriculture. I was hunting in the village with a friend, namely @akukamaruzzaman. And accompanied by a local resident who controlled the path to the rice fields and forests in the village, he was named Teungku Liek - he was a tough person - and he was 52 years old. I forgot to take pictures of Teungku Liek because he is a person who hates being photographed.

This is a macro lens or shooting equipment that I use to hunt insects.

While in the hunting area, I have to immediately prepare my equipment. This time I used a Lensbong that I bought from a friend in town, and I bought this Lensbong for Rp. 300,000, - (Equivalent to 2.80 SBD).

My friends, beloved Steemian, around 12.00 WIB, there was an interesting thing when I was in the rice fields, namely when I had not yet entered the forest, and at that time I was shooting several types of insects in the rice fields, suddenly the sky it became cloudy, the clouds darkened, and at certain times my friends and I had to take shelter in a place that was in the middle of the rice fields.

This is a unique and interesting thing, why is that? Because I really need challenge and patience in doing my job. So the three of us had to take shelter and spend time photographing the atmosphere and condition of the rice fields when the rain fell on the rice which had started to turn yellow.

Around 13.30 WIB, the rain began to fall very heavily. Thunder and lightning sound good too. The three of us took shelter while smoking and told each other about stories and life's journeys.

Teungku Liek is a unique figure in my opinion. He is a unique middle-aged man, why would I say unique, he is a farmer in Blang Weu village, but he does other activities as a content creator, and he has a youtube channel that promotes unique and good agricultural practices. I didn't have time to ask for the youtube link he has, but on another day I will introduce the unique figure of Teungku Liek. I feel proud to meet and make friends with unique and kind people.

Another friend of mine, @akukamaruzzaman, is an easy-going person with a clear and independent mind, and he is a good friend of mine and has a quirky style.

While waiting for the rain to stop, I spent a little time smoking and joking with laughter with my friends at our shelter.

When the rain has stopped, maybe around 3:00 p.m. WIB, at that time we started to enter the forest in Blang Weu village, Aceh. Akukamaruzzaman and I are looking for other types of insects in the forest area. And we spent time filming there until it got dark. Even though the rain and storms hit, the Hunting Event still raged. Our passion will not fade. And at 16.00 WIB we agreed to end today's insect hunting journey.

Oh yeah, here is a portrait of Akukamaruzzaman while hunting for insects in the forest.
