working out! (024)
Jan 24th
I took this photo from the poolside. I was supposed to join that water aero class (we were on vacation so why the hell do people do this?!) that morning but I woke up pretty late! And no I didn’t regret not being able to join in 
Besides, the instructor wasn’t a hottie…ha ha ha! just kidding!!

A timid Flower (023)
Jan 23rd
A Timid Flower Views Spring
On a timid flower fell a gentle shower
With the eternal warmth of Spring’s caress
In every droplet falling on the flower’s top
In splashings of saintly, serene tenderness.
And of the rain, fresh, sweet rain
That softly fell from the heavens above
The flower drank as though to thank
The Spring for such affection and love.
‘Spring, ‘ said the flower, in that magnificent hour
When the warm sun brightly shone again,
‘I would have died, ‘ the flower sighed,
‘Were it not for your so kind gift of rain.’
Then pausing a second, the flower recokoned,
‘Spring, ‘ the flower spoke, ‘Thou are to me
As woman to man and man to woman
As they to each other are, so thee are to me! ‘ – Carl Harris

Puggy morphing!! (021)
Jan 21st
Charlie is M O R P H I N G!!
It does look like it when he’s shaking excess water off was captured with a 6fps camera ha ha ha! I have the next frames which look just as funny (or so I find ) as this one, but this is the one I like the most. Come on, use your fantasy….what do you think Charlie is changing into?
- Angelina Jolie?
- Brad Pitt?
nahhh, I think he’s morphing into ME, his mommy

Magustuhan o Maibigan (LP 89)
Jan 20th
Noong nakaraang taon, buwan ng Disyembre ay napagpasyahan naming mag-asawa na sa Italia (Roma) iselebra ang aming ika-10 anibersaryo. Makulimlim ang Holland ng nilisan namin pero ganuon na lang ang tuwa namin ng dumating kami sa Italia na sikat na sikat ang araw! Noong nasa Rome Fiumicino Airport (Leonardo da Vinci) pa lang kami ay akala ko hindi ko magugustuhan ang aming pagbisita dahil sa mga arogante ang mga Italiano sa mga kiosks! Kakaiba talaga, na parang galit sila sa mga naglalakbay o turista. Pero syempre walang urungan at nanduon na kami, at isa pa, hindi ko hahayaang sirain ng kung sino lang ang aming anibersaryo, di ba?
Ang matutunghayan ninyo ay loob (ng itaas ) ng St. Peter’s Basilica na binisita namin sa pangalawang araw.
Ang disenyo ng ceramic tile mural na ito ay isa lamang sa makikita nyo kapag naakyat na dome nito. Makipot ito at halos kailangan mo tumabingi para bigyang daan ang mga taong gustong lumakad sa likod o harap mo. ( O siguro kasi mataba ako kaya kailangan ko tumabingi para makadaan sila he he)

Nababakuran ito ng metal..siguro ay para na rin sa kapakanan ng mga dumadalaw o walang magtangkang magpatiwakal dito.
Ang parteng hindi ko nagustuhan ay ang 320 na bilang ng hagdan na kailangan mong tahakin upang maka-akyat dito! Habang himihingal ay sandali akong tumigil upang kunan ang makipot na hagdan…mabuti na lang at winter ng kami ay pumunta doon, naiimagine nyo ba kung gaano kainit dito kapag summer?!
hay naku, talagang hapong hapo ang kasiksikan ko kaya umupo muna ako sa isang tabi…sa labas lang ito ng souvenir store sa itaas ng church na kung saan ay nakilala ko ang isa sa mga madre na nagbabantay sa mga paninda..isa syang Filipina, si sister Fatima..sayang at hindi ako humiling na kunan sya ang larawan.. (yung ale sa larawan ay papasok sa souvenir store)
Ang mga naglalakihang rebulto ng mga santo sa itaas ng simbahan..may rehas kaya hindi sila malalapitan ng husto. Ipinasok ko na lang ng bahagya ang lens ng camera sa pagitan ng mga rehas para kumuha ng larawan..
Ang nagustuhan kong parte, at tiyak na magugustuhan nyo rin …na makita ang ciudad ng Vatican mula sa tuktok ng simbahan. Waging wagi kahit hiningal ang kasiksikan ko.
PS. may isa pala akong hindi nagustuhan ng araw na iyun..nakaligtaan kong kunan ng larawan ang Pieta, ang likha ng mga kamay ni Michael Angelo! (*engot to self*)
enihawkalabaw, sana naman ay nagustuhan ninyo ang aking lahok sa Huwebes na ito…Happy LP sa inyong lahat!!
Charlie and Me (020)
Jan 20th
I seldom get to be photographed together with my Charlie. It’s because my husband does not like photography [ let alone carry a camera, but he's sweet enough to carry my camera bag when I'm shooting 
] and since there are only 2 humans and 1 pug in this family…well, do you get what I mean?
Here’s one way to have a photo with Charlie. Am I a smarty – panty or not?

Strak blauw (019)
Jan 19th
This was the beautiful blue sky we witnessed last Sunday morning (Jan. 17) when we took our last walk on the beach in Zeeland before heading back home.
It was still very cold and wind blowing steadily but that never stop horse riders and dog owners to visit the beach. This is the North Sea, as we call it in Dutch.

It was brrrrry cold, the sky was gray and yet my family was there in Zeeland last Saturday enjoying our walk on the beach and North sea. After almost 2 hours of walking we decided to head back to our hotel. On the way we saw a group of young ladies. I noticed that they were trying to capture jump shots but I wasn’t sure if they were successful.
Anyhow, one of them asked my husband to take their photo (while it was I with a camera strapped on my neck, lol!) to which my husband, who has no interest in photography whatsoever, declined and said to give it to his wife who is the photographer (yes people, women can take nice photos too, Lol again!) I was handed a Canon point and shoot w/ a shutter you need to press for a second or two before it could take photo. It’s not just a photo that they wanted buta jump shot. So no, that was the wrong camera for me. So I offered to use my camera and told them to just download their photo from my sites, besides I always use this body (Canon 40D) for action shots since it has a 6-frames-per second feature.
