Do not cross…

Shutterbug: Evelyn Yap Shutterbox: mobile phone’s built-in camera Post-shutter processing: nil, except for some Cropping MMDA sign reads: “Bawal tumawid. May namatay na dito.” Translation: “Do not cross. Someone died here already.” I like this. Used to be that warning signs like this would say, “Bawal tumawid. Nakamamatay,” which translates to, “Do not cross. It’s deadly.” Perhaps this new wording...

So this is my little effort at reminding myself where to go to should I need to send something via snail mail. This list is in alphabetical order with the name of...

“For me the camera is a sketch book, …, the master of the instant which, in visual terms, questions and decides simultaneously. … one has to feel involved in what one frames through the viewfinder.

Shutterbug: Evelyn Yap Shutterbox: camera phone Post-shutter processing: just a tad of Color Pop Okay, I could’ve spent a few extra seconds and arranged them nicely for a photo, but I couldn’t wait to enjoy my snack. Tough. 😛 ‘Twas a very hot day in Bonaire, so I went inside Gio’s Coffee & Gelateria for shelter and for a little...

Sometimes you just won’t have time to stop…

Shutterbug: Evelyn Yap Shutterbox: Nikon D80 DSLR Post-shutter processing: nil I was escorting a walking tour at Fuerte Amador and the tour guide didn’t stop for these sculptures. We didn’t stop for any sculpture. I guess they’re purely ornamental. Nothing to say about them. So these photos were actually taken while I was walking past them. That’s right. Didn’t stop...

Akaka Falls, Hilo, Hawaii

Shutterbug: Evelyn Yap Shutterbox: Nikon D80 DSLR Post-shutter processing: nil This photo was taken at a very safe “for elderly tourists” distance. I went along with a tour to take photographs of the tour participants. There wasn’t really any time to go exploring. Just as well… I’m not too adventurous anyway. 😀

List of strange names I’ve been called

Silky Feet a.k.a. Silky (in September 2007 Alija decided that I was made of silk) Elenora (because for the first few weeks Petrovski couldn’t remember my name) Madeline (a combination of Madame and Eveline) Platito (because a Chilean girl was so amused that I said that word) Yuki (because some people decided that it suited me and that I looked...
