| Google Map showing the sea beach track we took to the Horse Head. Palm oil plantation can be seen in and around these areas. |
Exactly 6 years later i headed back to Miri. This time I was attracted by the reports of sightings of blue tears seen in this unheard of beach of Tusan.

| Kg. Dagang lining the Miri River. Tusan Beach - 40 km away from Miri on the coastal road situated the Tusan ( Trusan ) Cliff. The geology resembles Tg Lubang ( cliff with a hole) in Miri. Notably absence here is the tubular - rusty looking fossils commonly found in the later. |

| The tiny shrimps let off light for a duration of around 100 sec. Looks like they like to ride the wave. Using ISO 3200 4-5 seconds exposure f 2.8 lens |
 |
| Imaging taking tripod shots in pitch darkness when the wave is lapping at your feet. Impossible task to steady the tripods. |
 |
| FireFly appear from no where making a trail in above image. ( total darkness) |

Tg Lubang Beach

| Now this looks like a submerged face or horse with a big eye |

| A fragile looking exposed end. |
 |
| Oops Break off ! |
 |
| Some structure is solid. Wont barge this one! |
