samar is participating in one visayas event in cebu this coming march 1-8. i was tasked to coordinate the photo exhibit for samar and find the assignment so easy. simply because its all my photographs that will be displayed. 
though some of these photos were already uploaded in my previous posts, am showing it again for some reason.
a perceptible threat to the forest of samar, ’slash and burn’ farming practice. cutting down and burning a million-worth of trees and other species in exchange for an uncertain income from farming rootcrops and what not… this is evident when you pass through the road from buray to borongan.
this is just one of the causes of loss of our forest cover which results to flooding, soil erosion, loss of habitats for wildlife species and a host of other environment problems.
made this image in an interior place called sitio bagong barrio. the image exif /data showed that i took this photo in june 3 2003, using canon powershot g2, a point and shoot cam! yes, one among my 200gb stock photos.
a 7am scene at bagong barrio. an upstream ride via suribao river starting from the foot of maydolong bridge in eastern samar leads you to this idyllic place, a place to enjoy the intimate view of the quiet rivers and lush forest trees.
Mono falls. this will make your visit to the place ‘worth it’.
a very limited images i made during my pre-nuptial session with steph and jimboy in calicoan island, eastern samar. the place is a photographers’ haven, i assure you.
i made these images before for the calbayog coffee table book. since only one photograph was needed and selected to illustrate the river, i decided to post these ‘non-selected’ images here as i deem these worth showing…
i recently went home to calbayog riding alone my motorcycle. brought along of course my camera and placed it inside the motorcycle’s u-box. as i passed along barangay burabod at around 6:00 in the afternoon, i wasn’t able to help myself but to stop and unpack my eos5dmk2 as i have to capture this scenery. beautiful play of magical colors in this place is just an ordinary thing to the community until i showed them (bystanders) my takes thru the camera’s 3-inch lcd screen, they were astonished with what they saw…
