The Heart of the Philippines

PHOTOS Taken from: Gasan, Buenavista, Poctoy Beach, & Melchor Island, of Marinduque Island, Philippines. 04.07-10.09

 

The Heart of the Philippines

Marinduque is a mysterious, human-heart-shaped island that lies precisely where the heart should be if the Philippines were a person. My last few tabblos are all about this beautiful island. Here are the last few pictures left. :)

Great set, James. Apt name for the island, as you always put YOUR heart (and soul) into your excellent photography.

Thank you, Lars, Marius, Myles, Charles and Mike. It feels great to finally put a period to this series. I can finally post the other pictures I've taken before and after these shots. LOL. :)

Ang ganda!! Expect more tourists to Marinduque!! :)

when I say woot I mean WOOT- especially your ocean/beach pics. I must have lived in those parts of the world in another life (I'm pretty sure I have)... dreamy. again and again.
Sirnicolay said at 10:06 a.m. on Apr 30, 2009:
Thanks, Bob, Janer and Annelies. :)

JAMES, YOUR PICTURES ARE ALWAY SOOOO GOOD! LOVE THE LAS ONE!
Mrsfabulous said at 10:24 a.m. on Apr 30, 2009:
But of course it had to be TOD -- I'm in it!
Haha, just kidding.
Congratulations, James :)
Sirnicolay said at 10:37 a.m. on Apr 30, 2009:
Dan, thanks so much. :)

Myles, ganun? Hahahaha! Yeah, I think your portrait was the decisive factor for the TOD. Hehehe. I'm happy to be done with Marinduque photos. There's one more album, but I'm not going to post it because I'm not quite happy with the colors. Remember the Gasan Moriones contest thing with the awesome presentation and the (seemingly) suspended man in the air? I didn't quite like how they turned out. : / Maybe I'll post them under different albums in the future.
Candlepower said at 11:12 a.m. on Apr 30, 2009:
Excellent as always! Congratulations on TOD!
Mrsfabulous said at 11:19 a.m. on Apr 30, 2009:
Hehehe I agree, James. Decisive factor, indeed :)

I was gonna ask you about those other photos... well I hope to see them sometime, I thought they were great!

I'm not done with Marinduque yet, dami ko pa kasing iniisip eh. Hahaha!

Anyway, congratulations ulet :)

Congrats on TOD! Wonderful tabblo... so incredibly vibrant. Love the angles and the contrast of the black and white shots with the brilliantly coloured ocean shots. Perfect layout, too.

Mirella said at 6:05 p.m. on May 1, 2009:
Ciao, Sir, you are always great. Those roman sodiers look so strange to me, but you explained their meaning in another Tabblo. I like the special angle-shots. Bravissimo !
Demberg said at 9:33 p.m. on May 1, 2009:
INCREDIBLE BEAUTIFUL !!!! CONGRATULATIONS !!!!! AWESOME SHOTS !!!

Lengsibal said at 4:50 a.m. on May 4, 2009:
can i just say it again?

ga-LENG!!!
Eduardo.affonso said at 9:32 a.m. on May 4, 2009:
This simply can't be real. Sometimes you make me think the Philippines are an imaginary place, sort of Narnia or Neverland.
Direktone said at 9:36 p.m. on May 4, 2009:
Pure joy!
Krisu said at 5:17 a.m. on May 5, 2009:
OK! Faaaaaaaabulous photos! :D
Ever did think about going to the turist advertizing business??
CANDYCANE said at 4:00 p.m. on May 5, 2009:
ANOTHER FABULOUS TABLOO. CONGRATS ON THE MOST POP LIST AGAIN. YOUR TABLOOS ARE ALWAYS SO AWESOME. I LOVE THE SUNSETS AND I DID NOT KNOW THEY HAD BLUE STAR FISH. VERY VERY NICE, RHONDA
