Ligaw na Bulaklak




Lavender, originally uploaded by Em Dy.

Hayop ang pinunta ko sa Ark of Avilon. Pero dahil napilitan kaming tumigil sa may paradahan nung nakita ng pamangkin ko yung tren, nakita ko ang bulaklak na ito. Ano kayang tawag sa kanya, Eva Fonda kaya?

It was the animals that I came to see at Ark of Avilon. But because we had to stop near the parking space because my nephew saw a toy train, I chanced upon this flower. I wonder what it's called, could it be Eva Fonda?

Bottled Up



Bottles, originally uploaded by Em Dy.

This isn't a paid ad. It's just that I got attracted by the colors. Lately, I've been passing time at the grocery looking for interesting things to shoot.

In the Philippines, we call sugar apple atis. I used to love this until I came across a maggot in one. Now, I don't dare anymore.

Off Limits



Off Limits, originally uploaded by Em Dy.

A fence usually signifies that something is off limits or at least requires permission to enter. This structure in Malaysia was fenced and not open to visitors. But I managed to get a shot through the fence, using its parts to frame the structure.

Alapaap



Curtain, originally uploaded by Em Dy.

Ang alapaap. Laging nandyan pero madalas di napapansin. Nakakalimutan kasi natin minsang tumingala o tumigil at magbigay pansin. May mga bagay bagay pa ba sa paligid mong di mo napapahalagahan?

The sky. Always there but frequently unnoticed because we are too busy to look up or pay attention. Are there other things in your environment that you've neglected?
