It's not so hard to catch four on a bike, but five is a rare event. I had 2 seconds to get this shot; fortunately, in Jogjakarta photo permission is a given.
 
 
 
 
 
In the lane Nogosari, an old residential neighborhood owned by the Sultan, near the center of town. This is by no means typical of the pleasant, well-maintained homes in the neighborhood.
 
 
 
 
 
Speaking of the Sultan, these ladies are dancing in the palace. (Performances are held every Sunday and Thursday.) See more views of Kraton dance performances.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
One of the many works in the Geneng Street Art Project. Geneng is a small village just south of Yogyakarta. The theme of the project was connecting art with the people. Get a closer look at Geneng and its project.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
A very disturbing photograph, quite a surprise in a Muslim environment. The poster was gone a couple days later.
 
 
 
 
 
Jatihlan. It's a traditional dance, but every village does it differently. See more views of jatihlan on this page.
