Mellow Yellow Monday # 1 - Favorite Hibiscus

  January Zelene       4:59 AM       Flower 101 , Mellow Yellow Monday , Nature Photography       3 comments    

I was looking into my files for a yellow flower to be posted as my first share on

Mellow Yellow Monday, but it seems that I have posted already most of it.

(huh! I sure do need to explore more and take photographs of anything under the sun.)

So since I can’t find any, I just have to pick up from my previous post a yellow hibiscus.


I makes me happy to always look back on this very vibrant colored flower that I luckily shot at Zamboanga City.

I love the color, I love yellow!

Hope you like it too.

Today's Flower: Bougainvillea

  January Zelene       6:48 AM       Close Up Shots , Flower 101 , Nature Photography , Today's Flower       13 comments    

My share today is a very spectacular Brazilian beauty flowering plant that is quite abundant around the world and popularly known as Bougainvillea.

Bougainvillea is said to have been discovered in 1768 in Brazil. It has thorny shrubby vines that grow from 1 – 12 meters tall. The blooms that we know are not true flowers but papery bracts that surround the cluster of three small white tubular flowers

So here are two the abundant Bougainvillea species that I had photographed in Cagayan de Oro Botanical Garden.


Hope you like it! Enjoy!

My First Skywatch Friday

  January Zelene       10:51 AM       Skywatch Friday       1 comment    

Hello Everyone! I just came back from a 2-day seminar held at our company’s headquarters in Metro Manila.

Oooopss! I was able to make a few EC drops but wasn’t able to write a post yet until now because I have to prepare my report since it’s already Friday, my busiest day at work. I’d prepared my travel reimbursement documents also, so that makes me a very very busy bee today.

But anyways, here’s some of recap of what I did in Metro Manila. Hmmm let me see, I attended a seminar/workshop on Quality Management System Documentation Development my main purpose, an 8am to 5pm hectic activity.

After 5pm on Wednesday I was able to meet my friends and had long chit chat about everything. They updated me on the latest happenings since the day I left head office a year ago until yesterday.

Huh! I missed those days living on the busiest city in the Philippines, I missed my friends there and I felt so happy that I was able to see them again even on a shortest time.

*******

I came across a site called "Skywatch Friday" that features different faces of sky, I was curious and started reading and exploring the site. Skywatch Friday is a place where you can enjoy the beauty of the skies captured from around the globe.

Here's my first share, a wooden electrical tower stands mightily under the blue sky.

I took this photo just outside our office @ Iligan City, Philippines.

The sky is beautiful here in our province in Mindanao while North Luzon in suffering from heavy rain brought by typhoon Pepeng. May the Lord, help our countrymen who are affected so that they can surpass this calamity, this trial.

Diyandi Festival 2009

  January Zelene       7:52 PM       Costumes , Diyandi Festival , People Photography , Simply Colorful       3 comments    

Diyandi Festival is an annual event of merry making and celebration to honor the City’s Patron Saint St. Michael Archangel. The feast falls every 29th of September, but each day of the whole month of September has lined up activities organized by the city government. One of the main event and most loved by Iliganons is the Kasadya Streetdancing and Merrymaking. Students from different schools, barangays and even from nearby towns came to join this yearly competition showcasing colorful costumes, props and graceful performance to vie for the P 200,000.00 cash prize for the over-all champion.

The Kasadya contingents gathered from Iligan Port routing the main street of Iligan city proper, then halted on some areas were judges
posted to have their performance and after which they proceeded to the Amphitheater Ground @ the Iligan City Hall where each contingent had their final "showdown".

The sky started to sprinkle rain at the midst of the street performance, I don’t have an umbrella with me so I had to cover myself and of course my camera (I can’t afford to have my gadget rain soaked LOL!) but still I managed to cap
ture some snapshots so here are they and hope you’ll enjoy the colors and smiles of the participants.
