ULOG S2018E009: Let Me Tour You Around the Province

Yesterday afternoon, I was working overtime at home and thought I should take a break. James @panoramicview thought a perfect idea, to walk around our area and check what's behind the road.

I never had gone out of the house beyond the road for some time so I was interested too what to see out there. James want some drone shots too so we brought our drone when it was already golden hour and started walking.

Here below are some of my mobile shots. Enjoy this photostory:

Just a few meters beyond the cemented road, we were already walking a grass road filled with dried mahogany leaves. It almost look like designed but this is all natural.

Then we passed by a local water buffalo which was a little camera shy. I guess it was just done with its daily work at the ricefields.

In our right side, the view is astounding. The sun was almost setting. This is golden hour!

In front of us was this trail, look like locals are using this to go to the ricefields. Lets see what's behind this.

I have to take a photo of my feet with the grass trail.

Now we saw some coconut trees. The view is already nice. I had to walk a little faster so I can see a wider view.

I recognize the ricefields. I just realized this was our playground way back in gradeschool. Our old house was at the end of the ricefields. This was where we fly our kites before.

We walked to the other side and found the river. Here's a shot with the sun flare.

There's a mini forest too. Look at those mahogany trees.

A shameless selfie required with the golden hour feels. James intentionally posed.

Here's a portrait shot of the trees. We walked past this mini forest.

And found this view. The locals here had somehow burn the rice hulls. Its still summer so the ricefields are still dry.

Another feet selfie with the almost decayed dried leaves in the mini forest.

This was how the mini forest looked like. There were some locals walking here as well. The fields are too dry, the only animals around were cows.

More views.

Here's another feet selfie with the dried ricefield land, white and cracked.

I sat near the irrigation canal and spotted lots of tiny grass flowers.

In front if me is a cow just eating some grasses. It was alone and busy.

Another selfie before flying the drone. Here below is a shot of our town. I can see a lot of memorable places here. On the right was where we used to live before, then the sea shore where we used to swim when we were still kids with my brothers.

Then the island in front is Anda, where white sand beaches is abundant. Lols.

On our way back, I took some shots again of the view and the beautiful skies.

The image above makes me think of the skies like a phoenix flying above us. Ot was a good exercise and a breather to see the view of our town and the simple provincial life.
