Photowalks in the Philippines

2017 was a very challenging year for me. It even hinders me to do more photowalks. My photowalks even at the latter part of the year. Nonetheless, I was still able to take some snap during my travel though they are not photowalks.

My first travel last year was in Baler. Clearly, my travel for Baler was not for photowalk but I was able to take some nice photo on my weekend stay. Photos of Baler will not be complete if it does not have anything about surfing.

 However, there is more to taking photos of surfers in Baler. The baywalk in Sabang beach is perfect spot to take photos. 


Baler is also a perfect place for food photography. There are a lot of restaurants and hidden nook in Baler wherein the food and place should become part of your Instagram feeds.

My first official photowalk was in BGC. Since BGC is very colorful at night, the photowalk was done at night.




Aside from the beautiful lights in BGC, the business district is still full of people even at the wee hours of the night. There also seems to be a lot of things happening in the place.



My second photowalk was in the art capital of the Philippines, Angono. Angono is the home of Carlos "Botong" Francisco and Lucio San Pedro. Angono also is a home of many museums. I visited two museums, a lake and a church on my photowalk.

The last photowalk I did was in Intramuros which happened on the early part of December. The photowalk is on street and night photography. I think there is no introduction needed for Intramuros as it is one of the most common place for photowalks. Intramuros is a perfect place for photowalk especially if you are just learning photography and you are inclined to do street photography.




 




Hoping that I will have more chance to do photowalks this 2018.
