the o.h.





























the old house back in lipa. aside from a few termites, ants, spiders and snakes(per my dream), nobody lives there anymore and nobody's trying. it's a bit sad seeing it this way, i always wanted a house i can go home to in the province on weekends or holidays. and oh, r.i.p. chupetsky, cleo and brando.

newborn


these babies were born last august. there were 3 of them but only one remains. i'm not sure what happened to those that died but the survivor was the biggest of the bunch. i guess the other 2 weren't that healthy. the makati kids fondly call the survivor balbon, sometimes abnoy. looking closer though, it's just a normal-looking siamese cat - with hair! :) we'll miss this one, he's going to have a new home soon. nico better take good care of him..

mabait


this was actually taken last august on i think our 2nd day living in quezon city. kyurifury and i were up the whole night arranging and rearranging our (semi) furniture around our unit when this mouse came out from our stuff. i wasn't sure if we brought with us the thing or if it was already a resident there. i chased it towards the door to our laundry area, i thought it would be ok to just let the rodent go since it was really small. however, it chose to squeeze itself under a tall and heavy plastic cabinet instead of just getting out of the room. i noticed the bottom drawer of the cabinet is open so i pushed it shut to prevent the mouse from entering since there were pieces of clothing there. i tried to look for my friend but to no avail. i tried to think where it might be.. as i opened the drawer, there it was, lifeless in between the drawer and the cabinet itself. its neck must have been broken since there was no blood. i put it inside a plastig bag before i threw the poor mouse away. it was then that i took this picture. kawawa naman :( kulit kasi e

tingala














































as i've mentioned before, the sky, especially clouds are among my favourite subjects. they're relatively easier to photograph because of the sun (unless it's nighttime, of course) and their usually vibrant colours around 5-6pm(there's no need to worry about your photograph's dullness). moreover, clouds' formations are constantly changing, giving me unique photos most of the time. i really love looking at them, even without the camera. clouds' outlines and shapes are a treat to look at especially on a sunny day(with a pair of sunglasses). my favourite of the bunch is the 5th picture. the buildings' silhouette is perfectly focused and the 2 huge clusters of clouds in the background looks as if they're about to converge in the middle :) the sky is probably one of the most photographed gift of nature and here's my take on it.

around the house







as some of you know, i'm currently unemployed, which only means the only productive thing i can do is to stay home and think of things to do to better the life of the bacon-bringer, kyurifury. proof of that is the foam of detergent still inside the washing machine's tub. but hey, i'm to start my new job this october, and i'm thinking.. i'll miss these moments, mas madali pa rin to kesa maging empleyado, mas masaya pati si kyuri :)

the road to constancia




i don't know the street's name but i always take it going to my sister's house. taking it is always an easy walk, only a few vehicles pass by this residential street in a given time of the day. there are a few dogs roaming the street but i haven't encountered one that has the look of having the potential of giving anyone rabies. these structures have caught my attention as early as last month when i started taking the said street but i was only able to photograph them just last week. these pictures were taken from the same compound on i think the south side of the street. i'm not sure what the place really is but it's old, it's dirty, in ruins and uninhabited. i have a feeling that it was a place where animals (maybe pigs) were put because i saw dividers which made small uniform and room-like spaces inside. it was bit creepy because it looks like it was abandoned hastily. anyway, the window and the gaurdhouse(?) don't justify the place's creepiness, maybe i'll take a few more shots next week :)
