Black and White Challenge
I was nominated by some travel and photography enthusiasts’ friends on Facebook to join the Black and White Challenge (#bnwchallenge). The aim is to post monochrome photos on your wall for five days and nominate others that you think would have fun to do the same. So I plugged my good old hard drive and started browsing through the sea of photographs…

Antique | Tobias Fornier Cemetery
After the sidetrip from Punta Hagdan and Taguimtim, enroute to Tobias Fornier's Buri Handicraft Making place during our Manggad Kang Antique or The Treasures of Antique Heritage Tour, is this cemetery you'd pass by the highway which, I tell you, has a very catchy phrase right at its entrance. The words in Kinaray-a, "Kami Karon - Kamo Dason," glares at us and since I my mother-tongue is Cebuano which originates also in the Visayas area, I kinda understand the phrase which practically translates to: "Our time has come but yours will come too." Or something like that. Funny and creepy at the same time if you ask me.

Photographs | Punta Hagdan and Taguimtim
En route to Tobias Fornier from Anini-y is a scenic view of palms edging the beach and the Sulu waves crashing over the rocky and non-rocky shore of Antique. I so wish to stay there until the golden hour but our Manggad Kang Antique or The Treasures of Antique Heritage Tour's itinerary tells us otherwise so I have to use the limited time I have to appreciate and frame this wonderful backdrop.

Antique | St. John Church of Anini-y
Second stop of the Manggad Kang Antique or The Treasures of Antique Heritage Tour is the centuries old church of St John in the town of Anini-y.

Photograph | Summer Siren Hangover
This post is solely due to the hangover from the Summer Siren Festival last weekend at the Crystal Beach Resort, San Narciso, Zambales. Don't get me wrong I am not certainly someone who will enjoy stuff like this, party all through the night especially with the wrong group of people and crowd. But, damn, that weekend was definitely an exception!
