Mirrored Shapes

The right tower is where my office is. ^-^

Going out of the building and looking up the sky during some lunchtimes is such a treat on a busy day.

Eerily Dark

This is how Makati skyline looks like before the heavy downpour today. It's creepy.

Wrap Ads

They are seen everywhere. Mobile adverts like this are like mushrooms in the rainy season.

As they seem to be loosely regulated, a lot of buses and vans are used for wrap advertising and corporate branding. Nowadays, there are only a few specially-designed vehicles that roam around like those in the early days used only for patalastas and consume gas and nothing more.

PBCom Tower

The Philippine Bank of Communications Tower, commonly known as PBCom, is the tallest building in the country since year 2000 to date.  It is an office skyscraper located on the corner of Ayala Avenue and VA Rufino  Street in Makati.

Although ranked as the tallest standing at 55 storeys high, it is not spectacularly taller compared to other buildings around the area.

Paint the Lobby Red

As they say it every year, usually alongside Valentine's day, - raise the red lanterns!

These hanging paper lanterns made the lobby of the The Enterprise Center in Paseo de Roxas, Makati red as part of the celebrations of Chinese New Year. Traditionally, red lanterns are a sign of joy and vitality.

Daytime Moon

The Moon Riding High in the Daylight Sky

It's a little past 4:00 PM and the moon is visible up there, so bright that it penetrates the blue light of the sky.

When I was young, I thought that the moon is always opposite the sun. It rises just as the sun sets, and it sets just as the sun rises. I was the same age when I thought that the moon follows me wherever I go.

This is was taken from The Enterprise Center in Makati. Those buildings in the picture are Asian Mansion II and Shang Grand Tower, two of the row of high-rise condominiums in Dela Rosa.

Dusk over Makati

Ending a very long, tiring day in the office with this view through the window helps you forget how you juggled the day to get things all caught up.

It's been a busy week. TGIF!

The sky is on fire

The sky is on fire.

Downtown

How can you lose when the lights are bright and everything seems waiting for you?

After the Storm

Morning after the storm

Super typhoon Megi has now moved to Taiwan and China, but the the havoc that it left behind the Philippines is kind of  sad. Random people have been killed. Now that the roads are clear, but apparently public transport is not available, how do I get home?
