There's an area on SM Seaside Mall's upper deck where there are glass enclosed spaces for restaurants and shops. Some were opened and running when we were here in 2018, but that was before Covid...

I took the free MyBus to the SM Seaside Mall yesterday...curves, lines and colors

concrete, tree roots and motorcycles...

Cebu Jeepneys 2

One of my favorite things as an artist/craftsperson here is the Filipino Jeepney, and I'm sad when I think about how they're slowly disappearing. Their numbers are diminishing due to a combination of environmental issues and Covid (social distancing). The colors, the personal touches, the metalwork, etc, I love it all. Until now, I've been shooting photos of Jeepneys going by when I'm walking, or when I've been riding in other vehicles. Yesterday I got out my Canon and I found a few good vantage points for focusing only on Jeepneys. These shots are a combination of old and new photos.

There are wires everywhere here. I'll see an image like the church on a hill in the first photo, but the wires don't give me an open shot. I did like the large tree branch in the next two photos. A sense of expedience, or humor? Sometimes, I try working with the wires in a photo's composition.
