The boat we hired going to Isla Reta 2 last weekend went around Talicud Island. The first stop was in Mansod Wall, one of the dive sites in the island. We didn’t dive into the depth of the wall as we don’t have diving gears but my sisters, BIL, Ella and Ace had fun snorkeling…looking at the corals while I stayed in the boat to take their pictures. Here’s Ace in his snorkel. That snorkel is a cheap one that limited them to snorkel longer because water gets in the tube so he and Donald are planning to get better one when we’ll go back to the island. 

Hope you all had a great weekend! Happy WS! Join the fun here. 

I wanted to buy a photography magazine or a book but it is soooo EXPENSIVE. Instead, Ace downloaded an e-book and I had time to read it when we had no internet connection. The books are interesting and nice read but I find it hard to go through all the pages because my eyes got easily strained. I would rather have a printed copy of it than reading it from the computer monitor. With the hard copy of the book, I can easily go through it whenever I can and highlight some of the important points by marking it.

Critters time! I’m already late but I hope it is better late than never. Here’s one of the parrots in Davao Crocodile Park. In going to the park, I find the colorful parrots more interesting than the crocs.LOL. I just love the colorful feathers of the birds and they make a very nice subject in photography so we spent longer time with the parrots rather than the crocs. We are taking this photo when Ella, my niece, was complaining she’s hungry.

I remember complaining about the banana and coconut trees blocking a beautiful view of the sky from our place. But I learned to appreciate it lately. So what if there are coconuts and bananas? They make a good foreground and frame too. For this week, here’s one of my photos of warm afternoon when hues of red dominate the sky during sunset. The trees and leaves could not stop me from taking photos.

Happy Sky Watch everybody! Join us here.

It doesn’t say SOS literally but in a sense, it is. Ace was very proud to show me this photo he took while he was waiting for us in Sta. Ana Wharf last Saturday. I didn’t take a closer look at it, I just said “ok” not realizing that it can be an entry for Ruby Tuesday until I browse through all the photos we took during the weekend. Now I also realized why Ace was too proud to show me the photo…it reads “…a joint project of…and Chiquita Unifrutti Philippines” now Unifrutti Services, Inc. and that’s where he belongs! 

Happy Tuesday! Visit here for more Ruby entries.
