Meeting the WArriors and Horses: Xi'an, China

I have been back from the tiring but educational Xi'an trip for several weeks now, but i recently got the time to post some pics during the trip.
 One of the towers in the old city wall.  This is one of the most ancient and well preserved wall in china
Another view of their City gate

The tower near our hotel.  Its spectacular at night, though during day time it lookes just like the other towers.

this was taken while we were in the tourist bus, going towards Xi'an proper at 6pm.  Its not fog, rather its smog.

A cultural show, the colors are spectacular, the dancers are amazing and exceptionally graceful.  It was a 120 min of pure visual treat














The restored terra cotta warriors and soldiers in pit 3.  Pit 3 the the latest site discovered.


This the the restores terra cotta warriors and horses in pit 1.  Pit was was discovered in 1974 by 5 farmers who were digging for a well.

The Beauty and Serenity of Bellarocca


I have just came back from a very peaceful and serene place...Bellarocca. It is in Marinduque which can be reached via Zest Air. And from the airport to the small jetty where their speedboat!...yes speedboats were docked is another 45 min land travel. However the exhilarating speedboat ride is a mere 5-10 min...wish it was longer though!
Here are the glimpses of Bellarocca.

My Favorite Models




Miko and Kiana have always been willing to be my models for my photoshoots. Theyve always been willing to do what i've wanted them to do...pose like this, look up, jump this way, look sad, smile, etc...
Here are a few of their photos, unedited...I am practicing on taking photos of jump shots, and again they became willing models. They've been jumping several times before I got these 2 decent shots, that Kiana even complaine and sai " no more Ate, its too much".

Flowers....The Colors of Nature


I have always been fascinated with flowers...i even tried cultivating flowets, though it seemed I dont have a green thumb, so I gave up being a horticulturist, and will now concentrate on capturing flowers in photos...saving the colors and beauty for future generations. Some of these flower photos were taken with my previous cam Canon 870IS, na nasa kapatid ko na. I usually took flower pictures early in the morning, thats why most of my flower pics have dews in them...i love going out in the morning and capturing these life's beauties. There's every evidence of freshness that would inspire every person to appreciate life ans the new day...thus a new opportunity.


Welcome

Hulagway sa Kinabuhi is my latest blog, though this is the first venture in creating a photoblog. I have always been a lover of photography...but I have just started on making this hobby a reality. Armed with my Canon SX10 IS , I hope I will be able to capture photos that will describe the journey through life of evey living creature...and also of the world we live in.
