The sun's already setting by this this time making taking pictures more enjoyable due to the lighting evidenced by the photo of Lapulapu (the rear guard of Jose Rizal) with children included to add scale.
nearing the time of the golden sun, we pushed forward to baywalk by hailing a cab to catch the famous sunset (that I never got tired of) where we saw the QTV event and a bunch of photographers (probably a class)

next, we experimented again with long exposure using the posts at the middle of Roxas blvd as tripod since both of us were too lazy to bring our own tripods. We couldn't get a better perspective as a result of our "indolence."
after 11 hours of walking, cab/jeepney rides and taking pictures, we decided to go home tired and weary yet satisfied with our "historic" journey most Filipinos would not even dare do.
Below is a map of Manila and the route we took from Quiapo to Baywalk
thus ended the tour of the flightless tutubi!
Wasnt this painted gold or something to that effect before?
ReplyDeleteI miss the walks in Luneta when I was in Pinas!

Baywalk is a better place for me this time with "less commercialization." It's good that joggers and promenaders can now enjoy the place the way it used to be. What's lacking with the place this time is the consistent police visibility that should discourage petty criminals preying on unsuspecting baywalk visitors...

ReplyDeleteanonymous, that first picture is in Luneta (rizal park) too very near manila ocean park and less than 15 minutes from your hotel. that "beach" pic taken on the so called Baywalk along Roxas Blvd and actually walking distance from your hotel :P
