Weekly Photo Challenge : Purple : Milo and a flower

The theme for this week’s photo challenge is PURPLE. Barney! Today is also the day before the Milo Marathon.

Barney + Milo = Bad memories.

I remembered again the runner wearing purple shorts who tricked us to cheat in the 2009 Milo Marathon finals.

Goodluck runners. Run strong. Run proud. Run true. Don’t ride the bus!

Change topic…

My entry for this week is this gorgeous flower I saw at the Salcedo Market. This is a Purple Passion Vine. Gorgeous!

Some interesting purple entries this week:

1. Purple Pod Pole Beans – love the play on purple and red

2. Dusk at Mt Fuji. I chose Kamakura over Mt Fuji now I regret it not visiting. Here it looks majestic and mysterious.

6. Venice Carnival player

7. Purple rain down under

Weekly Photo Challenge : Inside : Zorbing

I already posted one for today’s weekly photo challenge here and then I remembered this one. Perfect for this week’s theme. This is a video grab of me inside the zorb, screaming my head off.

Have you ever tried zorbing? Basically, you go inside a ball and they roll it down a hill. Fun! The manongs said it would take 22 seconds to get to the bottom of the hill. That’s not too long, right? Well… if you are inside the ball and in a never ending ground-sky-ground-sky phase it will like forever a day. Absolutely fun!

Weekly Photo Challenge : Inside : Durian

In my recent travel to Davao, friends and I ate some durian on the street. This is the first time for me to taste this ewwww smelly fruit and I was pleasantly surprised that it was really delish. Stinky but absolutely delish.

When we passed by the vendors, the smell could easily drive you away. But after one bite, you will be hooked and the smell won’t bother anymore. I do believe that I started to smell like durian also kaya I can’t smell it na.

Durian INSIDE.

Happy rainy Saturday folks!

Weekly Photo Challenge : Together

Here’s my contribution to this week’s photo challenge. Found momma and her babies when we visited Ilog Maria.

Weekly Photo Challenge : Distorted

For the weekly photo challenge, I’d like to share with you Mr Motorcycle Man in Yellow. Picture taken with my camera phone (errr this is my only camera haha). Distortion from the bus motion, windshield and the rain.

I like these 2 because the rain and the windshield made them look more like paintings than photos.

Weekly Photo Challenge : Indulge : Anawangin Cove

Another perfect weekly photo challenge theme, swak and sakto for the photos I took this weekend.

Indulge. After a crazy work week, I took time off and went with friends to Anawangin. It was a perfect place to just sit back, relax and indulge in some down time.

When was the last time you slept under a tree?

When was the last time you looked at the clouds?

When was the last time you walked to check out what’s beyond the river bend?

When was the last time you sat on a river bank and just watched it flow?

When was the last time you climbed a hill?

When was the last time you waited for the sun to kiss the horizon?

When was the last time you saw the stars appearing one by one in the sky?

I haven’t done all these things in a long long time. I indulged.
