Today marks my tenth year of living here in Manila. Malate in particular. The western end, the area by the bay. I know the place like the back of my hand now. And, as a small tribute, I won’t be going into its bad lights today.
Even though the city best speaks of that ‘run like hell by the Filipinos’ crap.
So today I’m left with nothing but potatoes.
Er..photos.

i love how you put your photos into perspective.
Even without words, they speak for itself.
you made me miss capturing Manila and head out the streets again. ^-^
A long way to go actually. Thanks sir
Thanks Brrrrrrianitus!
Salamat Cher!
happy 10th! and great photos btw!!!
Great photos! I like the one with stairs. Galing din nung Quiapo Underpass shot.
With my WWII site, I’m used to seeing Manila in ruins – a pleasure to see it rebuilt.
salamat po
Galing talaga!
I wouldnt want the historian to make me ancient history
will you be giving walking tours now like Mr. Celdran??? 🙂
Very sweet images of manila. Great stuff 😀 I may end up going back to P.I next year for a visit. I cannot wait 😀
A few steps from Harbour Square, the bay side. Thanks for sharing 🙂
You have such a great photographer’s eye for B & W.
I love the composition of your photos.
Wow! A lot has happened since I visited in 1995…lol! I especially like the “skyline” and Riverside drive photos. I’m going to post a link to this page at my FB page. I’m sure my Manila friends will want to see “today” photos.
Are the ASEAN gardens on the “bay” side of Roxas. I liked it better when that side was totally green and open.
