am greatly honored to be part of the core group tasked to prepare a book for the centenary celebration of Diocese of Calbayog. the team is composed of writers, photographers and researchers. our first research and photo assignment was in northern samar, particularly the towns of catubig, palapag, laoang, catarman and capul. these places were considered to have the oldest churches in the north, erected during the first mission of the jesuits in samar island.
here are few of the images i created during our 3-day travel.
palapag church - built during the 1600’s by jesuits missionaries
a portion of the walls of catubig church
few images i created during the One Visayas festival. please check this link: http://nelsonpetilla.wordpress.com/2009/03/05/one-visayas-images/ or simply click the image above.
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.
