lovers at the bay

Lovers at the bay spotted along san miguel by the bay at the Mall of Asia. I am sure that a lot of couples spend their valentine's date at the bay, cheap and romantic awww specially during sunset.

No, this photo was not taken yesterday but during the Canon photomarathon last November where i was a participant, will be posting photos that i have taken on that event in the following days.

catching what?

sitting, waiting, wishing

situations

Situation Number one

Its the one that's just begun

But evidently its too late

Situation Number two

Its the only chance for you

It's controlled by denizens of hate

Situation Number three

It's the one that no one sees

All too often dismissed as fate

Situation Number four

The one that left you wanting more

Tantalized you with its bait

~ song by Jack Johnson

smudge

i had a perfect sunset, well sunsets are always perfect specially at manila bay but i cant get a decent shot of the sinking sun, the sun was bloody red but somehow i couldnt get it right, the red began to smudge and instead of a perfect red ball of fire i got this, any ideas how can i correct it?

nothing looks beautiful as nature's own beauty, and i will never get tried of watching at the sun sets and color the sky oh so magnificent

simple joy

families, friends, and lovers gather at baywalk just to watch the beautiful manila bay sunset

one fine day

theme day: lines

what a great day to start the month of october, its a holiday here in the Philippines because the government declared today a regular holiday in observance of the feast of end of Ramadan but had miscalculated the date LOL! anyways our muslim brothers celebrated the Eid ul-Fitr yesterday, thanks anyways that we have an extra holiday today.

It is another theme day for the City Daily Photo community, and for the month of october it is all about lines.  my photo is from my archive and shows the coconut trees lining manila bay, twas a great afternoon sunset view (cant go out today since we do have a typhoon named Pablo - Metro Manila is now under public storm warning signal No. 2, meaning winds of 60-100 kph.)

Have a safe and eventful day everyone, do check out the other participants of the theme day. Click here to view thumbnails for all participants

i love sunset

"I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberles times, in life after life, in age after age forever." ~ Rabindranath Tagore

PS. It has been a while since i last posted a sunset photo, am indulging myself to this beautiful sunset at manila bay. oh how i love sunsets

lonely sunset

sunsets always make me happy and sad at the same time... and i still cant figure out why i still love sunsets

melancholy

“There is no such thing as happiness, only lesser shades of melancholy.”

the simplest thing

"If one could only learn to appreciate the little things ... A song that takes you away, for there are those who cannot hear. The beauty of a sunset, for there are those who cannot see. The warmth and safety of your home, for there are those who are homeless. Time spent with good friends for there are those who are lonely. A walk along the beach for there are those who cannot walk. The little things are what life is all about. Search your soul and learn to appreciate." ~ Shadi Souferian

stick it out

"Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day." ~ Letters to a Young Poet
