Well shutterbugs, I'm logged back in here after having not visited for months (close to half a year, if not over that, i think). So I hope you'll all forgive me for posting a whole buncha pics to feast your eyes on (hey... I probably won't be posting again in a while anyways). So, all I can say is that it's good to be sharing again. So enough of the talk and on to the photographs. I've catergorized them into...

Every once in a while, I like to take trips into one of the many slum areas that are quite numerous in Metro Manila. Here, people have a world and way of living of their own:

I Am Manila

Feedback is, as always, very welcome. :) Hope I've shared some of the visual-me once more through this post. Keeeeepahshootin!!! :)

You have made me look at things differently.  I'm not there yet, but I'm trying.  Please remember that imitation is a form of flattery.

I had so much fun scanning in old photos that I couldn't stop.  Once again, these are about 25 years old.

I love the way light plays in fog. On a recent trip to Hong Kong, I tried to capture the reasons for my enthusiasm. I took a cruise in the harbor. For others the harbor was the destination.A times, it seemed the horizon was a giant bejeweled bracelet, and I had to get a closer look. Santa Claus likes it here too, and you can see him year round. I wondered at the modern spire reaching through the clouds. I had to see what this beautiful land must look like from up  above.

Here is a shot of Minneapolis I took a few years ago. I found it while sorting through past photos.

Went for a walk this morning among the fresh snow - which was clinging to everything in site. Took a few pictures along the way, but they weren't anything special. So, these aren't them! Instead I grabbed some older shots from a lunchtime walk around NYC... in slightly warmer weather. Enjoy!

I always like the way so many famous and wonderful buildings keep popping up in the background as you wander around Manhattan. Here are a few different views of a couple of favorites.
