Water Patterns #2, more tropical waters images...

When we arrived here in early November, I often took photos while riding in a taxi or a bus with my iPhone, a refurbished iPhone SE. I hopped on Robinson's "Free Bus" ride to their Galleria Mall yesterday, and I clicked off these shots. It ended up being an election (May 9th) campaign shoot with all of the posters, even the old guy in his green campaign shirt: "Richard Yap" for Congressman. I liked all of the colors in his belongings, and I especially liked how he rigged up a kind of horn system on his cart.

lines...coconut trees, and big buildings

I've always liked downtown buildings. These were in my FB Memories this morning, from this date 7 years ago, April 28, 2015. "I often go downtown (Seattle) early Sunday mornings to take photos of the buildings. I like the lines, the colors, the shadows, the reflections of other buildings in the windows..."

I was walking on a side street in the IT Park area recently when I saw this Jeepney. Newly painted, getting ready to hit the road? Like so many Jeepneys, a feast for the eyes...

Sto. Nino Chapel Pt 2

I walked down to the new Sto. Nino Chapel and Park yesterday. I thought the 30 ft Sto. Nino figure on top would be the highlight, but I was surprised by the chapel building and architecture. The curves of white painted concrete and the metal screens with their diamond shaped openings were wonderful! The chapel was closed but the screens were like the glass surfaces I like to photograph on downtown buildings. They were like "layers" in your view. You could see through them, or focus in such a way that they merged with the façade... Like!

I like trees. I love coconut trees. Trees with electric lights can be nice too, even when they are not plugged in.

When I was taking those sunset photos in Talisay recently, I aimed my camera East as I was walking back to the park. I noticed these moving dark areas where I thought the breeze was causing water ripples. As I got closer, I realized it was hundreds of little crabs trying to get away from me.

I don't like taking selfies, but I do like taking shadow self portraits like the green leaf I posted yesterday. The bridge, wood and rocks shots were in my FB Memories folder this morning, from a photos post I made 5 yrs ago. In he last photo, I played with the editing of the green leaf shot.

I go through my old photos folders sometimes, and I find shots that I passed on the first look-see. Here are a few I like from our visit to Talisay last month: more foliage, plastic hangers...
