On The Bright Side

Last Friday was definitely one the brightest days this summer in Cebu. Hence, my friends and I went for an uphill adventure at the Temple of Leah not only to witness this European inspired temple but also to take advantage of the location for a portrait photo shoot. I brought with me my EF 50 MM lens hoping we can achieve a decent focus range pictures. Take a look. :-)

Philippines | The Temple of Leah (Cebu)

Located within the uphill landscape in Busay, Cebu City is a Roman-inspired temple that people lately are schmoozing about. A story about the undying love of a man for his wife is certainly worth the attention of anyone who believes in love. And as someone who trusts that love still lives beyond death, I find the Temple of Leah as a perfect illustration of true love that never ends.

A short but sweet vacation with friends in Bantayan Island, Cebu

The saying “distance means so little when someone means so much to you” is true.  And I believe that as long as the relationship lives in the heart, true friends will never part.

Last weekend, my closest college friends and I gathered in Bantayan Island, Cebu for a reunion we have planned since months ago. Our friends who work from different cities here and abroad came together for this one weekend getaway. Though there were a lot of discussions and indecisions (in short for drama) happened beforehand, everything still turned out beyond great - Thank God! hehehe I guess drama will always be part of our friendship and maybe that’s also something we love about each other. Thus, our contrasting opinions and misunderstandings truly keep our relationship open and real – that made us not just friends but also a family at heart.

Singapore Skyline

The skyline of Singapore is definitely one of the most beautiful panoramic views around the world. There are over 4,300 completed high-rises buildings in the city-state of Singapore and most of its structural designs are astoundingly constructed. At night in Marina Bay area, these buildings are glowing with colorful lights and the sea glistens beautifully. I had the chance to photograph these fantastic views from the sky deck of Marina Bay Sands and I have to say the experience was very surreal.

Singapore | Gardens by the Bay

The Gardens by the Bay is one of the latest attractions in Singapore created year 2012. This nature park is located near Marina Bay spanning 101 hectares of reclaimed land and consisted by three waterfront gardens: Bay South Garden, Bay East Garden and Bay Central Garden. These distinctively designed gardens are surrounded by supertree groves of up to 16 storeys in height. When the night falls, these supertrees come alive as it dazzles with myriad of light displays dancing across the sky. Here are some of my photographs of the garden and a short clip of its lighting display at night. Enjoy! :-)
