Below was one of the photos I took on January 1st when I decided to do a daily 2010 project 365. Yes the blog posts may not updated but the photos are :D

It is fun taking photos because each photo has a story to tell, hence my blog name, Photo Stories.

Though the inspiration to capture what one sees as a good image may make one lose interest and get bored, for me, taking photos, albeit what I think for me are good enough , is better than reading about insurance quotes and waiting for the paint to dry.

Others may not consider my work as masterpieces. I don’t really mind at all, as long as I am happy and still able to take photos I find interesting. After all, photos are captured moments that can be enjoyed without sweating the tech stuff.

Have fun Photo Hunting, remember, taking photos is one of the many ways we have stopped time :)

The sun’s rays has broken through the clouds to cast a beautiful sky scene. In this other entry, something has broken inside the third floor windows.

I featured this sky scene in my 2010 Project 365 (not the same photo though)

The North Face brings you Thrill of the Trail NUVALI happening on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2010 at the Nuvali, San Pedro, Laguna.

The North Face Thrill of the Trail NUVALI

Since this is an event happening on Valentine’s Day, Thrill of the Trail NUVALI decided to add twist to the fun of doing trail running! What is it? There is an 11k Couples category where the couples participating in the trail run need to cross the finish line together while holding each other’s hand. No gender restrictions for the running couples.

Did I get you interested? Then be a  fan of the Thrill of the Trail Facebook fan page.

Sweeeet! Talk about HHWW (holding hands while walking or in this case, while finishing a trail run).

This trail run seems so much more fun than doing a run on paved road.

Full moon before Yule and Shell Lamps entries.

When we went home to visit my parents the other week, I asked my husband that I wanted to take photos of a creek beside the road. We were able to stop on our way back home so the photos I took were “dusky”. Not sure if it really is a creek although the body of water is definitely smaller than a river:

It would have been more fun to have the children wade in the water but they were asleep when I went down for the photos. I hope they can do that when we come back for a visit.

Have a fun weekend y’all!

Technology has enabled us to travel to wonderful places without leaving the cozy spot in front of our laptops.

But even the best view captured by someone else and seen through a computer monitor can not compare to being “there” wherever there is: savoring the breeze, smelling the scents, tasting the flavors, feeling the sun’s kiss on the skin, taking it all in.

One Fine Day

Spending time outdoors is a better alternative than experiencing outdoors while indoors and connected.

Have a great weekend y’all :)

Photo of a fun and colorful toucan balloon here in my other blog.

Last summer when I went to take photos of sunflowers, I chanced upon a flock of birds walking. I slowly and quietly walked to where they were and followed them, taking several photos. These winged creatures didn’t seem to notice me.

Walking Birds

Until one sort of turned around and saw me. I froze.

Bird on Grass

They changed course and I managed to take several photos until another one looked at me again before they vanished among the grasses that hid them completely.

Of course it was fun while it lasted. I just wish I knew the names of the birds.

Have fun doing PH!
