blurry

That sums up what I think will be the theme of my post. Just a few snaps from the few moments I had on a Maundy Thursday.

Annie In Focus

Annie, my impromptu tour guide of Dubai is a friendly and very hospitable lady from Davao City, Philippines. Her slim figure and effortless projection in front of the camera makes her versatile enough to also be my model for some of the shots that came to mind during the tour. Though she may not really be a model, I believe that she is photogenic and can hold her own in front of any lens. Simplicity helps her adapt to the poses I ask her to do - and she is patient enough to cooperate the whims needed for the shots.   As a final note, I posted this a simple token of appreciation for being good company to me, and bringing me to all the sights I posted about in my Dubai entry. This is also as an addition to my growing online portfolio. Shukran Annie!

I arrived late monday evening, February 19, via my Cebu Pacific flight. We stayed at the Novotel Dubai Al Barsha Hotel which, in my opinion, offers a really good breakfast buffet selection, and a great view of the Burj Al Arab from our room. My first dinner during this trip was a sumptuous sampling of Pakistani food. My impromptu tour guide, Annie, brought me to Nayaab Haandi in Satwa. How can I not love the dishes we ordered, they were chicke...

Mula Aparri...

For those who grew up watching the TVJ noontime show Eat Bulaga, those two words would most likely have been read with a tune in mind. These are some of the snaps from a recent trip up north - WAY north. Aparri, to me, was a town with a very early curfew. By 7 or 8 in the evening, the town seems to fall into sleep with only a few people still awake.  For the most part, we were at Lyceum of Aparri for our event. Apparently, the rattan's fruit is edible. I saw this somewhere in Nueva Vizcaya but hesitated to taste it - I'll save that for next time.
