It's raining cats and dogs in our area this morning. After the rain, the water of the river in our community gets brown. I am passing this river whenever am going out. My son joked to me, and said we have unlimited chocolate drink in the community.

These purple zinnia's catch my attention. This colour is rare, that's why i took them images. Looking forward to have the seeds to plant them and propagate in the future. Spotted them inside the school campus. I saw some butterflies flying around but no one perch on the blooms. It's unlucky day for me, anyway these flowers would be enough for this post.
I jogged early in the morning and as usual chasing the sun up to my favourite spot, at the oval in our community under the acacia trees. I captured the images past 5am. Loved the hues of the golden hour and perfect to start the day.
Simple meal but healthy this spinach sauteed in salmon and oyster sauce. Once in a bluemoon eating this kind of vegetable due to health issue. This is my first time to put salmon in a spinach, a left over from yesterday.
This zinnia variant is different to those I captured before. The petals are small and too tight among other petals. One more i noticed is, raindrops aren't visible to the bloom. At first glance it looks like plastic, right?
It's Caturday here in noise and sharing this cute feline that i captured in the neighbourhood. At first, he's meowing to me but when he heard my voice, it turned down his head and it seems shy to me. Then i talked to him i just wanna have a series of shots. Luckily, it turned him up his head and ready to strike a pose. What an adorable cat.
Fresh avocado anyone? Bought recently from a mobile vendor. This is how i eat my avocado, just sprinkled powdered milk and no sugar. I wanna try with evaporated milk but out of stock in the pantry. How about you, how do you eat yours?
Got these photos a months ago, browsing my gallery and don't know what to post. Until i saw these images, that was a sunny morning. This acacia flower got my attention, it looks like waving at me. This is unique, first time to see this kind of bloom closer.
Who loves red flowers here? Sharing these all to you that i captured from different places and dates., these are Chrysanthemum, Peregrina, Rose, Neverdie blooms respectively. Whenever am out or having a walk, my camera lenses are on alert mode for possible photoshoots. Photography is my passion and stress reliever.
Missing the sunrise, it's been raining for a week now in our area. I captured these images a weeks ago. My favourite spot, under the acacia trees. Beforehand i did a series of shots without the trees but the result aren't good, they look dull and not alluring to the eyes.
We experienced heavy downpour in our area and right now it stops. The sky is quite clear now, unlike this morning it's dark. While checking the leaves and blooms in our yard for possible raindrops photography. I saw this yellow moth rested on the bulb of Chinese hibiscus. The moth it looks great after the rain.
I always visited this Church whenever I have a chance. I used to do this since my college days. I feel relax and have peace when am inside. The Church is an hour away from home. How was your day? God bless us all.
Been to mall yesterday with my sons and bought some stuffs for them. We rarely go out coz we're avoiding crowded places due to COVID19. It seems back to normal compare before. Still following health protocols, since we knew pandemic not yet over. Hopin and praying everything back to normal soon.
This morning while cooking, spotted this cute lady bug on our devil's chili. Decided to put some chillies in my recipe, I'm about to pick some on the plant and saw this creature. Wondering if it is eating the chillies or perched in a wrong place? Anyway, it flew away after i captured it.
Unique flowers of guava that i took recently along the road while doing my afternoon walk. Each flower had five petals and numerous stamens. I was amazed to their stamens coz they look stunning and anyone can attract.
Go greens, these fruits are not only delectable but they are incredibly healthy. In a few days they are ready to eat and surely will turn with their respective colours when ripen. Some of my favourite fruits and make it sure have these on our table since it's their season.
Attended my granddaughter's 7th. Birthday, i liked the motif and it's alluring to the eyes. Sharing you all some of the photos i captured. Didn't include the photos of the celebrant, have to respect her privacy. Both sides member of the families gathered together. We enjoyed the event as well the foods. Good evening everyone, love and peace.
I bought siomai in the Supermarket and made my own dipping sauce. I think this sauce is not complete without sesame oil and that's what the sauce make so famous. Trying to make home made version of siomai. And add all the ingredients wanted to put in the recipe.
Hibiscus bulb and full bloom with raindrops on it. This is new to me and rarely seeing like this. Mostly only flowers without the bulb i encountered before. Anyway, they really stunned in the garden. The colours are wondrous and it amazes me.
The sun is visible when i captured these photos a days ago. It's been a week didn't shown up in our area due to heavy fogs and smogs. On the second photo the children are enjoying the sunshine while walking the coloured pavement at the oval in our community.
A blessed Sunday everyone! How's the day treating you? It was a busy day for me and did a lot of errands. While sipping my coffee in our terrace, caught my attention these pink vinca blooms. The hues of the plant are gorgeous. One of my favourite plants in our yard, i feel relaxed whenever i see the beauty of nature within.
There's sunshine in our area but it rained hard last night that's why part of this school is quite flooded. Took these photos coz they look awesome. The beauty of nature is visible in these photos. Anyway, it was a fruitful day and how's yours?
Spotted these spider or ribbon plants at the school campus of my son. They lined up at the entrance with decorated pots. They are popular as house plants and easy to manage. I have one in our yard, it's getting bigger and soon planning to propagate. Keep safe everyone, and stay dry. In our country experiencing heavy downpour since yesterday due to typhoon.
Pretty green caterpillar crawling on Mayana leaves. This is a macrophotography, I was allured to the subjects. Most of us afraid to touch this creature but they are harmless to humans. How i wish it will turn into beautiful butterfly soon.
This jumping spider is so elusive. It always jumping when am ready to capture it. Until i took these images while rested on the leaf. This is too small and just shot it in a macro. I seldom encounter this kind of creature.
I can not imagine the Universe without sunshine. Sunlight is life, any living things on Earth needs it. Life is too short, enjoy it to the fullest. Be thankful and cherish everything under the sun.
Visited my uncle recently and encountered these adorable feline. They are my uncle's pet, wasn't able to know their names. The white colour look sweet and shy but with the black colour, a bit scared whenever my camera focus on them. Have an awesome weekend everyone. Be blessed and keep safe.
Pansit Palabok anyone? Rice noodles with orange sauce on top, made of shrimp stock, pork broth, ground pork and hued with the annatto seeds. This time i put boiled eggs and cracklings as garnishings. This is my own version and prepared this as our snacks. Since my sons craving it and we don't have this recipe on our table for a month.
The beauty of nature is visible in this photo. The butterfly is resting on the yellow bloom after the rain. Anyway, as i observed it looks great and in good shape. I wanna some more photos but it flew away after i captured it. Hopin it will come back soon in our yard.
Magnificent sun up reflection, the vivid colours it really amazes me. It's magical in the sky. It pays off even I woke early in the morning to witnessed these beautiful views in our area. That day while chasing the sunrise, standing under the trees and i realized how nature is amazing. We should care and protect the beauty of nature so that next generations will enjoy it to the fullest.
Spotted these violet Mexican Petunia in the neighbourhood while having my morning walk. They look gorgeous, the petals are different. And i guess have only one petal, right? So simple but anyone can allured to the colour.
