About Me

My photo
This blog is an amateur photographer's attempt to show how beautiful the world really is. He is drawn to the colors of nature like a moth to a candle light. What are showcased here are nature's grand display of colors at sunrise and sunset, beautiful beaches and off-the-beaten track locations in his beloved Philippines, waterfalls and some of nature's great sculptures, architectural gems, and other views from around SE Asia that he was fortunate to see at one point.

baguio: a fiery mines view sunrise


Mines View Sunrise
I have not been able to pick up and use my camera as much as I would like to lately so when the opportunity came to visit Philippines' summer capital a couple of days ago, I made sure I catch a sunrise at Baguio's Mines View Park. A classic tourist trap and is filled to the brim with tourists during the 'normal' hours, Mines View is a breathe of fresh air and totally deserted at dawn.

samal: snorkeling at the giant clam sanctuary


Giant Clam
A few hundred meters from shore in Brgy Acedor in Samal island (officially known as the Island Garden City of Samal) is a one of a kind marine sanctuary. A 14-ha area around a shallow reef near the famous Pearl Farm resort was seeded with giant clams (genus Tridacna) some years back and now its home to a few thousand mature giant clams (at least 3000 according to the caretakers).

cebu: temple of leah - an edifice of love


Temple of Leah

Standing grandly on a spot overlooking the whole of Cebu City, the temple looked out of place with its large Doric columns and statues of angels and Greek archers. The temple is not your usual temple - its not build for a religion, but as a symbol of one man's undying love and devotion.
