From Our Morning Walk

Making another two-in-one post, I always forget to post my MYM post on a Sunday.




Sister and I went out Saturday morning to walk and jog. Since this was our day to be out and "be one with nature," I took my camera with me, so I can capture images that would take my interest.

However, we saw rain clouds from afar, and it was actually raining at our would be destination. We had to cut our walk and take a different route, but we still was able to get in touch with nature, because of these pictures.

I took this near the neighborhood's chapel. The yellow flower looked a bit like squash's but am not sure if it's the same plant as I still haven't seen a squash flower that looked like this (ones I saw had a little pointy petal tips).

I sure hope this weekend the skies will be clear so sis and I can enjoy a much longer walk, and jog as well.

Made for Each Other

Saturdays are my lazy blog days. I am online everyday, but during weekends, I just find myself either watching videos or just browse all sorts of websites I can hop into.

Today, I told myself I am going to blog, but right after doing the laundry, I just went in my room (which is more of a storage room than a bedroom because I abandoned it a few years ago - I sleep on the living room floor) and started cleaning it. It ate my entire afternoon, and because I feel quite tired, I was thinking of not blogging, but I decided to make this post just before I call it a day.


Whenever I go to the weekend market, I spend hours taking pictures of the flowers because our own garden doesn't have that much flowering plants. Since I don't get to visit the market that often, I do make sure my camera's memory card has enough space to save nearly a hundred pictures because I do take pictures of a particular flower over and over.

Pink and lavender are my favorite colors. They just look so good together, and even this flower didn't look that fresh (too many dark speckles), just seeing a flower having two of my favorite colors was enough to make me take a picture of it.

It's been month since I last went to the weekend market and I do miss it. I really should convince the girls (mom and sis) to go there soon.

A Critter on a Bed of Petals

While at the Simply Butterflies butterfly sanctuary in Bohol, my companions were busy taking pictures of themselves, and since I don't ask any of them to take my pictures that often, I just roamed around to find photography subjects.

It was the pink flower that I saw first, but when I came near it, I was surprised to see this little fella sitting pretty on the petals. I am not really sure if this one's a beetle or something else, but it sure looks cute where it was. :)

Fan Adorned With Flowers

Last Saturday, mom attended a wedding celebration, which I unfortunately wasn't able to attend because of a tummy ache. When she got home, she quickly showed me this fan, which was given to the female principal sponsors so that they would have something to use to cool themselves as weddings here in the Philippines oftentimes require people part of the entourage to wear gowns. Well, I guess weddings at every part of the world are like that, too. The white roses were starting to wilt already; I took this picture the day after the event.

The color motif of the event was red, and sister told me the whole celebration felt so magical. Too bad I wasn't able to attend it.

A Wasp, Maybe?

Like what I shared on my other blog, this yellow flowering plant was something I took while vacationing in Cebu. After taking several pictures of the bee, I was able to see this critter - which I think is a wasp (correct me if I am wrong).

Ain't it cute? The flowers were yellow... and the critter had a hint of yellow, too! :)
