Views from the Passenger Window

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme.The theme for this Saturday is VIEW.

I have lots of photos to choose from so I decided to put two in my other blog with a  post entitled Hanging Bridge or View Deck.

I have decided to post three photos that I took from the passenger window during our road trips and here they are:

A pine-tree lined highway view during a late afternoon trip home from visiting my parents.

A view of the skyline of one of the business centers here in the Philippines. Hmmm…I can see my workplace there in the middle part.

My son enjoying his view of the picture window in a bus.

I have read this and it is very fitting to the photos I have been posting, that WE have been posting:

“The camera makes everyone a tourist in other people’s reality, and eventually in one’s own.” by Susan Sontag

Have a great weekend everyone! :)

Me too, Audrey. Road trip photos are a nice way to look at places that are not really in the magazines and brochures.

AM, mahirao ang bus rides with the wind blowing your hair, alam mo na, maalikabok plus here in MM, snatchers can do their thing with those windows ng shorter buses :D I know because a friend had her cellphone snatched while texting in one of those buses plying Quirino Hway. Not the red buses but the white ones with stripes (pascual) :(

I don’t generally bother with magazines and books, at least not the ones for travel. I like something a little more personal.
