It’s 12 days before Christmas and every where you’ll see beautiful decorations; giant Christmas trees, sparkling Christmas ornaments,  brilliant lights, garlands and mangers  are set up in homes, indoors,outdoors, hotels, churches, schools, public places  and literally everywhere but, the best Nativity I’ve seen is the one inside the compound of Meralco. The entire compound was so spacious that it can accommodate everything. I took this shot the night we visited the fantastic place.  The entire place was  very bright and very pretty especially these huge manger. The colors remarkably unique and vivid.

This is the colorful manger of the Holy Family  infront of  Meralco building.These Nativity represents the story of the memorable night in Bethlehem where Baby Jesus was born. It creates spectacular welcome for the coming of Christmas.I was amazed to see this scene. It was a huge towering sight and the sounds of  choral around scents the air and brightens my spirit evenmore to think Christmas is near.See how beautiful it is! The reflections of sparkling lights around appeared to be splendor.It’s wonderful to see Christmas past comes back to life and the true meaning of religious celebration is not forgotten by the Filipino people.For me, Christmas is the best season of the year.It is the season for giving,forgiving and sharing. A season for a get-together gathering for family and friends.

WEEKEND ROUTINE

By on December 1, 2011

It’s a quiet weekend routine.I woke up 35  minutes before sunrise and drove to Eastwood city for my early morning exercises; jogging, running and biking around the area.I’ve been doing this for quiet sometime now. As usual, I’ve scheduled  all my activities  in advance. Running and biking makes me feel good, energized all day long and  it’s good to burn my  extra fats too. As always, I brought my camera with me. I went running for 45 minutes, biking for another 30 minutes and would spend the rest of my time for photography.  I always carry my camera, whenever I go.  It’s not a problem, but, I hate to bring my tripod everytime,  so huge to carry. What I have now on hand is just a pocket sized Digital Canon. The good thing about it? It’s easier to use and convenient to  carry,  I can just simply place it inside my pocket and just focus to specific point and shoot, done. Very easy and light to carry while running around.There’s a large display  viewing all my photos and features is good as well. Here are the shots I have captured around Eastwood area. Happy Viewing!

The waterfront at the center of the shopping area.

Fountain is the most attractive scenes to view. Lots of people encircling the place, a  quiet place to relax after breakfast.It’s getting seriously fun here. It’s really a good place for shopping, dining and relaxing.

The high-rise buildings around.

A very modern design of architecture.I’m just curious, How long did it take to build these buildings? It may take years maybe. forgot the name of these buildings, I have to find it out again next weekend.

This is beautifulbeautiful but, I’m afraid of heights and just after this snap, I have kept my distance. Other buildings under construction near the area. I don’t want to be closer. I’m scared of the dust and the debris might fall anywhere.

Looking over the good pictures I took earlier. The result ended to be just a good one. Constant practice makes it perfect anyway. My adventure in shooting will not end up here. I will come back same place tonight. I still needed to come back  because It’s ”Greyson Chance’s concert around 7 p.m. Once more, it will give me a chance for nights shots so, keep coming back for a beautiful and amazing night shots.
