Kennon Road: Twist and Turn

Last week I attended a company conference in Baguio City. It was a 250KM drive North of Manila, ascending some 5100ft above sea-level. On the way up, we took Kennon Road. One of the three major connections to the city. It was the shortest, but also the steepest and most winding. Since it was already dark when we started our climb, we could only feel our shoulders swaying from left to right at each turn we made.
After the conference, we took the same route again on the way down. This time we stopped by to see the view.

Kennon Road was built in the 1903. Named after Col. Lyman W. Kennon, the one who supervised its completion. It took great perseverance for the builders, mostly Filipinos, Americans and Japanese to finish the enormous task.
Life's challenges are also full of twists and turns. Sometimes,we have to take long uphill climbs or even sharp descent. But it is only through perseverance that we can finish the course. We can not give up.
The good thing about it, is that, once you've done it you can look back and enjoy the view.

A Day in a Life of a Photo Blogger

For a photo blogger, nothing completes their day than to have a photo op excursion. For them it unlocks thousands of composition possibilities starting from the time they sit on the car and will last through the whole duration of the trip (or until their camera battery runs dry..lol!)
They love early morning or late afternoon day outs. During these times, the sun's rays are not too bright,giving the pictures a subtle dramatic effect.
What amazes me is when they go and look for that subject for a macro shot. I have always wanted to learn how they focus their lenses using macro.

I appreciated the time Maiylah shared with us during that day out and showed me some pointers in framing and capturing scenic pictures. What a day it was...

Homeward Bound

Still during our bird watching outing. Saw this pair of birds breezing through the sky before dark. They looked so relaxed yet eager to get to their destination.

No matter where we go, somehow the homeward bound trip is always more delightful. Especially when you are traveling with a companion.
