The Nearly Extinct: Manila Zoo

Aged elephant, shy hippo, balding ostrich, lazy tigers, domesticated monkeys -- These are the few remaining animals left of Manila Zoo. For the past two decades, I have witnessed the drastic change of the place... pairs or herds of animals have mostly gone solo... worse, some of which are nowhere to be found... have gone extinct.

Through My Lens: Paco Cemetery

I had to check-in Pacey (my Acer Aspire One notebook) at Acer's Service Center in Paco, Manila when I recalled a place worth visiting in the heart of Manila.

Other than the cemetery, Paco Cemetery (also known as Paco Park) also houses the Chapel of San Pancratius. To my surprise, it is a popular venue for weddings. In fact, there was an ongoing wedding when I got there. Luckily, the sun was just about to set. Just the right time for a photo shoot.
