Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is REFLECTION.
This is my other entry.
I decided to post a photo of these ducks standing on a piece of a Styrofoam board that I saw floating on the moat at the entrance of Fort Santiago which I earlier featured here.
They are cute, aren’t they?
I am not sure though what kind of ducks these are. Ducks are not that common here in the Philippines, especially in the urban areas. I remember one of my grandmothers had a small pond where white ducks and some geese would swim when the weather is hot. I wouldn’t go near these though because the geese would always run after me.

We had a lunch picnic last Sunday. We took a lot of photos. Hubby tried to capture the trees around us in black and white.
When we were looking at the photos, one of my kids said “It’s like history” referring to the black and white photos.
Here is a sample of one of the photos that he referred to:
Yes, this photo reminds people about the past, when we, as children, loved to run around, climb trees, sweat it out and play games with our friends.
Children these days have it differently. Continue Reading »

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is RUIN(ED).
The first thing that came to mind was the photos we took when we all trooped to historical sites as a part of our home schooling lessons for History. I have posted entries here, here and here.
Photos of the entrance to Intramuros are in my other blog post about Ruin(ed).
My entry for ruin(ed) is this:

The sign at the gate of the church says:

It has been a long time since we have been to this place.
In fact it was over a year ago when we last went here and I must say I miss the view of the
Sierra Madre Mountain range from this view deck as well as the view of the
hanging bridge.
Not that this place is that spectacular or breathtaking, I just feel comfortable in this place, breathing fresh mountain breeze and listening to the sound of leaves rustling when the soft wind blows.
Here is another set of photos with views from the passenger windows.

This song by Willie Nelson has been playing in my mind while I was thinking about the entry that I will make for Photo Hunters. Since we have lots, I mean really lots of photos of roads going to different destinations, choosing just one was a bit hard.
By the way, I have another entry here.
I chose the photo above however. We were on the way home from visiting my parents and getting the children who stayed there for several weeks last summer (April and May).The sunset was so wonderful I just had to put my hand outside the window and take a photo while we are on the move. It was just fortunate that the photo was good enough for me considering it was only one shot that I took on that spot.
