Wildthing said at 4:45 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Looks like a little piece of paradise, James. Great shots..........and shorts:)
Sheila said at 5:02 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: don't you just love this island!? well executed photos! =)
Eduardo.affonso said at 6:16 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: I have a strong feeling that I've been there, I'll be there someday or maybe that I should be there right now!
Sirnicolay said at 6:20 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Thank you very much, Pam. #10 and the last shot are also my top faves here.
Joaquin, it's in Zambales, northern part, almost near Pangasinan. :) 5 hour travel from Manila via Subic-Clark highway.
Mariusblack said at 7:10 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: sarap!!!! great way to start the series of vacations this year. of course i thoroughly enjoyed the jumping part. sooo filipino and sooo much fun! =)
DanMan said at 7:40 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: What a paradise! Nice place I would get away from snow to! Beautiful island and very nice pictures!
Pachito said at 8:10 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Winter in Southeastern Asia, nice pictures James.
Chaitiamma said at 8:44 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: I can live there forever James !!!
Ericf said at 9:04 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Ok James, this just isn't fair to me. It's snowy, cold and windy here and I can't get any work done because I'm daydreaming about Potipot. All great shots and the formatting is spot on! The last few and the last specifically are my faves...Thank you!
Tina2750 said at 9:10 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: you are so fortunate to be surrounded by the gorgeous ocean. wonderful and breathtaking series
Moabjeeper said at 9:23 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: It isn't fair as -19C this am. The morning to evening sequence is nice.
Leftofcenter said at 9:36 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: this is downright CRUEL of you, James!!! (-12C in Montreal) omg- paradise indeed, and no captions necessary. how can you pick a favorite??? ok, if I had to, it would be #10: the little girl with a starfish in her hand (I hope it's a little girl cause she reminds me of me a long time ago!!) i'm sure someone already has used the word: breathtaking!!!
Sirnicolay said at 9:41 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Marius, jumping shots forever! Hahaha!
Thanks, Dan, Patrick, David and Tina. :)
Eric, Bob, and Annelies: I didn't mean to be cruel. Haha. :) The summer heat can also be downright irritating, you know. I'm sweating right now as I am typing this comment because it's a very humid night. I think I need a shower. Haha. :) Thank you for the kind comments.
Welshchick said at 9:42 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: YAY for TOD! I'll take Potipot along with me today I think...How do you pronounce it anyway? Just like it sounds? :^)
Chilla said at 9:43 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Congrats on a super TOD
Sirnicolay said at 9:46 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Thanks, Rhonda and Celia. :)
It's pronounced as Poh-Tee-Poht. Flat vowel sounds. :)
Leftofcenter said at 9:50 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: SWEATING????? ok, all together now: POH-T-POHT!!!!! :)))
Joaqy said at 9:55 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Yeah, I AGREE wih everyone here....unfair and CRUEL. Lol.
Buti na lang na sa Luzon. 5 hour drive ain't bad for pristine beach and clear waters.
Wildthing said at 9:58 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Congrats on the TOD, James.
Saulblum said at 9:59 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Congrats! Lovely compositions.
Pkeener said at 10:16 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: ahhh so happy to see this paradise landed in TOD land. sweet!
Eduardo.affonso said at 10:17 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Is it my imagination or there's an "island fever" on Tabblo? First Annelies, then me, now you.
It's a pity that "no man is an island". If I were an island, I would like to be Poh-Tee-Poht...
Pkeener said at 10:17 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: and, i guess it's fair, but kinda NOT! ;)
Mariusblack said at 10:20 a.m. on Feb 4, 2009: woot! TOD. TOD. TOD. can you see me jumping now? haha! congrats, mr. nicolay! beach, beach, beach!!! =)

Joaquin, puntahan nyo. Sobrang sulit. :)
Thanks, Mike, Saul, Pam, Edu and Marius.

Moorlerche said at 3:47 p.m. on Feb 4, 2009: Most of my impressions have already been put into words. But my favorite is one that sticks out a bit: The opening of the mussle with the perl inside. It's a very beautiful arrangement.

L810th said at 5:01 p.m. on Feb 10, 2009: #25 reminded me of that great movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" in search of the big W. This photo says it all and exudes the energy of a band of young people having such fun. It looks like late afternoon and thay still have the energy to perform, wonderful stuff, but my real favourite is # 10 with the little girl heading off with her treasured find to show someone. It is so natural and beautifully composed. The slight tilt guides the viewer in her direction and away from the delightful setting. The girl posing for the camera is another winner and zoomed in could provide greater attention. The side lighting, form and poise is a celebration of feminity from your cameras POV. Mike.
Thunderz said at 6:04 p.m. on Feb 10, 2009: wow how nice, makes you 4get what is happenning around the world.ty
Sirnicolay said at 7:21 p.m. on Feb 12, 2009: Thank you, Mike and Thunderz :)
Dreamin_u2 said at 12:16 a.m. on Mar 3, 2009: amazing photos...ive seen the island from the top while traveling to santa cruz,zambales way back 1989... makes me more eager to go at potipot this summer
