One of the most precious moments while being on the Philippines was this late afternoon. Standing on the bridge over the Sum ag river overlooking the spot that I had crossed many times. Watching this fisherman getting ready to go out fishing. Looking at this image, one feels the serenity and quietness on the water.
But behind me the cars, trucks, tricycles and motorcycles were rushing by only 1 meter. Making lots of noise. Pedestrians were waiting for me to finish my photoshoot to get passed me on the narrow pavement.
But looking at this image at home I enjoy the tranquil scene.The yellow light from the setting sun striking over the treetops and warming up the colors of the boats and the houses on the right. Today I received a large print of this image and now it's hanging on the wall of the living room. I know I will return to this place. Soon...

Queuing for the entrance of Saint Peter's basilica we past by this scene. Using the telephoto lens and some patience got me this serene shot of one of the Swiss guards. I like the colours of the uniform, the framing of the scene and the repetition of the arches. Most visitors didn't even notice him. But after I took my chance more people tried the same, with their phones.... Hmm, I wonder if they kept their shots.
update 250220: I followed a suggestion to crop the original image to its current size. The focus is even more on the colourful uniform and the soft lights and colours in the background. It makes the image stronger. Thanks for the tip Titus!
Enjoy!

Hooter
1. British
A siren or steam whistle, especially one used as a signal for work to begin or finish.
2.
A person's nose.
This was captured recently at a charcoal factory at a village call Terong. They are using the mangrove trees to make charcoal. Basically mangroves are put into a huge clay furnace and burn over night.
This is a dying industry as the mangroves are protected by the government from over cutting as they take about 30 years to grow. Sooner or later we won't be able to see these type of factory again.
Captured at Galway City's train station undergoing renovation. Edited using Adobe Lightroom with a gently-applied posterisation effect in Photoshop.
One of the subjects I wanted to photograph while being in the Philippines was the native domestic carabao. Lucky for me, the family farm still uses carabao. So when we visited it, Bonjing (the manager) was willing to get this beautiful animal and demonstrated how they still incorporate the animal in the otherwise modern agriculture.
Using the long telephoto lens at a low viewpoint, the sheer strength and size of the buffalo is accentuated. While it was an overcast day the whole scene is lit by soft light. Perfect conditions for the 2,8/70-200 from Nikon.
