More and more, the hiking bug is starting to bite, as images such as these warrants an hour or two hike up and down a beach, braving treacherous waves and small streams, for the chance to take that killer shot.

Story on the last two photos: I've been eyeing a spot along the inner area of Meragang Beach on Yahoo Maps/Flickr's Map facility, and when we got there, it was a disappointing marshy area, with the water completely hidden under the tall grass. Not being one to get disheartened so quickly, we set out to hike up along the beach, and to my surprise we found this area devoid of a crowd, where the river meets the seawater. I've completely forgot about it during the hike (the 3pm heat does fry the brain matter somewhat) but the discovery was at least the highlight of the trip. I might organize a camping trip there in the near future.

p/s: The last two shots were taken closest to Muara, on the west portion of the beach. You can check out the map here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/stupidlogic/sets/72157603849667047/map/. Click on the satellite link to see the map.
