The past week was quite hectic. After arriving from Cebu last Friday for a general faculty meeting, I had to travel to Laguna for the weekend Friday night with Joel and Obet for a photoshoot of the former. It wasn’t simple as I’m not really into this kind of shoot and it took us whole day of Saturday and Sunday in various localities in the province. Tiring is an understatement and until now, I’m not really feeling well.

Last Holy Week, I was spending some time in Argao to document some lenten practices. In this southeastern town in the province of Cebu, there are still several antique ivory processional images that are brought out during this important religious event.

On Holy Tuesday, the antique ivory image of San Pedro is taken out to be dressed for the procession on Holy Wednesday. This icon is part of a set of ivory images that the church got, probably in the 18th or 19th century and were assigned to the prominent families of the town as caretakers.

My thanks to Leslie Obiso for assisting me.

The angelic Angel Aquino, model, actress and TV host was sighted at the Bonifacio Global City last Saturday eating at Yoh-gurt Froz with a male companion. That was the time that we also had our food tour by Ivan Man Dy. Good timing.

We just entered the Hobbes and Landes shop where the frozen yogurt joint is located and she must have been so surprised to see these line of people streaming in, taking a seat and occasionally glancing and secretly taking photos of her and she was just calm. Not getting bothered by these visitors who went in for a cup of the cold delight.

Unlike other stars wherein seeing them actually in the flesh seems to be different from their screen persona, she is what you see on or off screen. But no, I’m not star struck.

I’m always in awe whenever I’m in the minor basilica of San Sebastian in Manila. The all steel church has one of the most fascinating architecture in the country. During a photo documentation of the interior, yesterday, a children’s choir was practicing for their presentation a few month from now. These are just some of the few I took.

Prior and after the Earth Day Run 2010 yesterday, I was shooting around the grounds, and was photographed too by my friend, Ryan. I was looking for portraits and these were one of those that I found. Check out yesterday’s photos.
