Above the Clouds

I posted for my SkyWatch Friday last week was a photo taken at the ground, today I'm sharing the Philippine Sky just above the clouds.

These photos were taken while on board PAL Express Q400 Aircraft for a 38-minute flight from Cebu City to Cagayan de Oro City on December 9, 2009.

I was ready to capture scenes below because the plane will be flying only around 10,000ft above sea level but the clouds were thick, so I took shots of the sky peeping in the thick clouds instead.

Here they are my 10th SkyWatch Friday..

and My 1st Entry for Looking at the Sky on Friday!

I applied an auto-level correction for picture # 2 using Photoshop CS3.

Christmas Flowers Poinsettias

It’s Sunday, December 06, 2009 and I’m on official travel here in Cebu City. I arrived around 10:30am this morning on board PAL Express from Cagayan de Oro City and since I lack sleep (because I had a night out with friends last night) I slept right after I checked-in at Cebu Midtown Hotel.

I woke up at around 3PM and I’m re-charged! Yippee! And it’s time for strolling at the MALL, (oh well I love malls lol…) first stop SM Cebu.

Oh look what I’ve found while wandering? Fresh Christmas Flowers, Fresh Poinsettias my entry for Today’s Flower.

Poinsettias scientifically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima, grows with a bunch of colorful bracts (special leaves) that many mistook as the flower, but its not. The flowers are the small unnoticeably yellow or white small bulb that grows in the center of the group of bracts.

So here they are red and pink poinsettias that I have photographed this afternoon.

Enjoy!

A Lamp Post

A lamp will light our way when in darkness...

I took this photo last Monday while passing Ditucalan Bridge, I found it to be a good subject to point my lens at i hope you do agree, because it has a bonus a "power transmission tower/lines", the electricity carrier that delivers electricity to light our home, our community.

And this lamp post is his witness.

Sunset @ Iligan Bay

Before I'll leave my desk again to attend another meeting with power plant producers I'll share to you first my SkyWatch Friday for today, my 9th entry.

Canon 1000D, Sigma Lens 18-250

This photo was taken last Monday along Iligan Bay. My hubby and I searched for a nice spot to wait for the sunset and this was the spot we've found, along the highway near barangay Buru-un, Iligan City.

Enjoy!

Not So Late for "New Moon"

I got a hectic start of the week after the 4-day holiday. My boss asked me to go with them on a meeting between our group and other power producers yesterday at Cagayan de Oro City. I assumed I will have a bundle of task after the meeting and I was right I had to prepare presentations, schedules etc. to be used on Friday. This is how busy I am on my day job, but then again I’m still thankful that my boss, section head assigned task for me that means I can be trusted and can do the job reliably.

Since the meeting will not occupy my whole day in Cagayan de Oro I asked my hubby to go with me since he’s on day-off yesterday. He waited for me until I finish and after that we went to SM and had a date. Yippee! Sweet.. lol

We decided to watch movie together to refresh my mind for awhile and we chose to watch New Moon! Too late huh! Not So! We weren’t able to watch it on big screen here in Iligan.

What can I say about the movie then? Hmmm… Since I bought the complete Twilight Saga and I’m done reading it, I compared them and found the movie more exciting than the book. I love the transformation of man to werewolves it was remarkably done, though I hated the part were Bella and Edward parted ways, it was painful and very depressing. But guess what excites me more? It was Jacob (Taylor Lautner) he was so handsome! No wonder girls had gone head over heels on him and I guess I fell in love with him too and I want to be imprinted by him.. hahaha

So that’s it! I guess I better watch out for the “Eclipse” by next year I believe this will be a more exciting one, this is where the real action begins…

Go Team Jacob! whee!
