My Photos for June can be viewed here. This month has one Trip to Cebu City to get my Visa extended.
Pictures taken in the Philippines. I’m an expat living in Northern Cebu Province. I walk up to three miles a day and take pictures as I walk. I like taking pictures of the people and all the colors. The Pinoy (males) are almost always happy to pose but the Pinay are almost always shy. I take pictures of babies all the way to old men. But it would be hard not to notice all the pretty Filipina in this country.
So far this month, I had one series of shots fouled up by Jermain’s toes and fingers. Well the prints anyway. He loves to try to sneak a touch of my camera and my notebook. I caught his toes on the lens of my cam but didn’t realize he had managed to mess it up. Luckily I had a protective UV lens protecting the main lens.
We were hit by Typhoon Fengshen (renamed Typhoon Frank in the Philippines) that left us without power for several days. Not a huge amount of damage but I did see one home near us that was destroyed. The picture for that will show up in the pictures for July though.
I really do need a new camera but at the moment that is just not possible.

Hi Rusty; I sure enjoy your pictures, as they take me back to happier times. In the Philippines of course. I don’t know if you review this sight’s comments, as it is dated 2008. Would you be kind enough to e-mail me, for a short conversation. Thanks Guy
I am looking for pictures in Bogo City and it leads me to this page. Hope you can post some pictures of Bogo City.
Nice photo with your little pet. And the it has also a great sunset background.
Thank you Lito. :)
Rusty,
I like the picture of the Bogo traffic cops in your set of pictures Pogo City Festival 2008.
There were 2 cops wearing two big smiles. Not guns. Try that in Los Angeles or San Diego where I live. I am out of here in 2 years. I plan to retire in Batangas, 90 miles south of Manila. This will be truly a 2nd Life for me.
Thanks for making me appreciate what we have here in the USA. We are so spoiled.
Thanks,

I never made that comparison with USA cops but you are 100% correct. Cops in the USA are scary. LOL
