Ladybug 2008-09-05 01:30:00 I really don't know what this insect is at first. This photo was taken somewhere in Eden Nature Park. The reason why I took this photo was that it looked like. The quality isn't very good, not sharp enough. Only later on when I browsed to this picture that my officemate pointed out that this insect was a ladybug. I need to refresh my memory on that subject in high school that deals with insects. W Read more:Ladybug

The Coconut Pilot 2008-08-31 20:51:00 I'm afraid to climb that high without support from any rope. When I was a child, I climbed half this coconut's height once at my grandfather backyard and once i reached the top, i had difficulty going down. My whole body was trembling with so much fear. Thinking of all the negative things that might happen should my hands let go of the tree, I just stayed on top and hugged the tree with everything Read more:Pilot

Kabuki Chick 2008-08-29 00:07:00 Kabuki Chick, that's what I call her. She was a part of the mural painting or wallpaper at Bigby's in SM City Davao. I was intrigued because this slender lady with modern fashion sense hides behind a kabuki mask, a part of the traditional Japanese Theater costume.I often wonder, why does she hide behind the mask? It is left to the viewers to wonder.Masks represent disguises that of our physical or

"Redeem" Team Wins 2008-08-24 19:42:00 Last night, i watched the gold medal match of the Beijing Olympics Men's Basketball between U.S.A. and Spain. It was a thriller, I was on the edge of my seat most of the time because it was a very close match until the end. This was a basketball game, physical and emotional plays all over the court, unlike their first match that looked like an exhibition match.Although i was rooting for the "Redee

It Will Solve Itself Naturally 2008-08-20 22:05:00 Get in your opponent’s shoes and look at things another way. If it’s a puzzle, then think about the person who made it.

A Bengal Tiger 2008-08-19 21:01:00 This is Sheeba, a Bengal
Tiger. She's one of the many animals featured at Davao Crocodile Park, aside from the customary crocodile. Since, as far as i can remember, this is the first time I have seen a real live Tiger. I eagerly snapped several photos of this beautiful creature behind the comforts of the barbed wires surrounding her sanctuary. I think she's tired because of the tongue expose or ma
Kindness and Decency 2008-09-23 00:28:00 It is a good idea to be ambitious, to have goals, to want to be good at what you do, but it is a terrible mistake to let drive and ambition get in the way of treating people with kindness and decency. The point is not that they will then be nice to you. It is that you will feel better about yourself.Robert Solow Read more:Kindness
Lighted Street 2008-09-22 21:45:00 With nothing to do last night, I went out at about 11 in the evening and started taking pictures of the street near my residence. It was quiet with a few occasional roars of motorcycles passing along the street, probably the night owls just coming out or going back from a night out. As much as I like take pictures of people showing unbridled emotion, I like taking pictures of places, that are usua Read more:Lighted

I always intrigued by animals who can alter their colors. I was introduced to that idea through the times i was watching the Discovery or National Geographic channels.
