Banded boxer shrimp

This littleguy is a banded boxer shrimp (Stenopus hispidus). I caught up with him and several of his buddies just behind the breakwater at low tide.

Pier at sunset

It’s notyour typical blazing-orange-sky sunset, but I like it nonetheless. More quiet and calm light pinks and blues instead of intense orange and reds.

What’s your Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf story? July 19, 2008

I decided to join the “What’s Your Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Story?” run by CBTL Philippines. A friend and I went to CBTL Greenbelt 3 and went nuts taking photos. These are the three best ones:

Partners Mine! Foam

The one in the paper cup is a caramel latte with soymilk (I’m lactose intolerant), while the one in the mug is a Moroccan Mint. All three photos were taken with my handy-dandy Canon A80 point-and-shoot.  Lugging an SLR all the way to Makati from Paranaque wasn’t exactly something that I wanted to do considering that 1) it was raining, and 2) you never know what could happen. Here’s hoping that I win first prize (haha) just so that I can finally see one of my best friends after five years.
