Baguio Botanical Garden, Dec '09

first quarter of the new decade has gone by easily and yet i'm still not done sorting out the photos from my vacation. i might not be able to do them consecutively as photos keep on piling up in my "baul".  but i guess i'll be getting better sorting them out now. btw, i love the bokeh of this flower. please don't ask me to name it, my usual reply would be "i have no idea!" :D

taken at San Juan, La Union

stunning, and amazing sky photos are up again for Sky Watch. have a lovely weekend everyone! :D

taken two weeks ago at the MRT area. for the first quarter of the year i've noticed that most of my sky photos are taken early afternoon as i'm always in awe of the clouds. the typical weather is hot and very very humid and a bit hazy too. lovely photos for Sky Watch are surely up. have a great weekned everyone!

as promised, the best photos i have of Poks! enjoy!

i just had to choose from my files as almost all are the same. i found out in youtube that they call him "poks the fox". maybe i should ask my friend to interview him the next time so i would know the info better. i know that he uses the smaller/shorter surf board without the "safety string". i was told that the shorter board is more difficult to use at it's more difficult to balance too! talk about being a real pro!

i've got a few photos of him that i need to sort out. he made my jaw dropped when my friend told me that he's one-legged. since i'm not so familiar with surfers i had to google his name up and found a youtube video of him. his name is Ronie "Poks" Esquivel. never had the chance to meet him personally nor get near him but i'm a fan! definitely! i'll show you why (please try to watch the whole video, he's really amazing!)...and his photos to come up soon! :D

taken about two weeks ago. i just could not resist to take a photo of these clouds. even if there's dark clouds looming around. amazing skies are surely up for Sky Watch! have a lovely weekend everyone! 

this is my favourite photo from this surfer. i know i've been slacking posting photos of my la union vacation. i've been rather busy at work and i don't have much time sorting them out. will try to do my best to wrap this one up soon :D
