Gala Pinoy Redux

The first photo story I’m going to feature here is Jerome Baluyut of Balintataw.

From Jerome: I took this photo last July 5, 2008 at the Pasig River, Manila on a ferry route to Quiapo from Guadalupe Station. It was my first time to join a photo walk and to ride the Pasig River ferry. I never knew how colorful the houses are along the river banks until that day, good thing I saw an approaching boat perfect for the composition I wanted to achieve.

Thanks Jerome for sending your photo story! How about you, do you have a photo and a story to share? Send them to cedric @ galapinoyredux.com, and your contribution could be featured next!

I was walking towards SM Cebu when I saw this kid wearing a cute native Filipino costume, presumably for the ‘Buwan ng Wika’ (literally Language Month) celebration. I just had to take her photo, but I didn’t walk fast enough to capture her facing the camera. It was a good thing, though. I was pretty happy when I was rewarded with this happy hop she made instead as she went down the stairs, holding her mother and nanny’s hands.
