This post is titled Wow... I won... by author SoulJah. KHAIRUL_NIZAM_entry_3 (by SoulJah)

This won me first prize for the local youth competition! And I'll be going to Singapore to the Asean + 3 Youth Festival representing Brunei with this photo! Awesome! Theme of the shoot for that day was Global Warming.

Caption: A monitor lizard inspects an intruder to his habitat.

Description: The use of water bottles has exploded in recent years due to the convenience of having bottled water at the ready for daily use. Numerous companies in Brunei have wholeheartedly embraced this growth market and introduce their own brands of bottled water. The bottles are actually recyclable, but either due to public indifference, or ignorance, the water bottles are unceremoniously discarded. If it doesn’t pose a direct threat to wildlife, an indirect effect of that would be global warming due to the increasing use of hydrocarbons to produce the PET bottles; it has been noted that recycling plastic material amounts to a saving of more than 50% than producing the bottles from their source materials.

Awwh! That is so cute! Macam ia bawa pelampung.

I know it's not good for the bottle to be there, but it's like he's bringing it swimming.

Congratulations, by the by!
