It’s PhotoHunt time once again.
I met this boy while I was doing my undergraduate thesis two years ago in a remote area in Rizal, about an hour away from Manila.
We had to walk up a slope and then cross streams and log bridges to get to where he lived. The area had no electricity and no running water. The main source of livelihood was farming, and most of the residents, including his parents, had no education.
I can’t quite put a finger on what he must be feeling when I took this shot. I just found him cute, looking up at me like that, while I was talking to the older people in the house. He seemed so innocent, so oblivious to what was happening.

I thought of not joining this week’s PhotoHunt because I initially had no idea what to put out for the theme.
Until I saw this picture. I took it last year in downtown New York, where the World Trade Center used to be.
The blue thing the grandpa was leaning on contained information on the soon-to-be-built Freedom Tower on the site.
He seemed to be living off the street, although he could be a passionate musician who just wanted to share his talent in public.
I wonder how he is now.

I’ve been meaning to play in Photohunt, which I heard through Bing, but I forget to post each Saturday. This time I didn’t! 
The theme for this week is Self, and so here is my entry.
I look like a 12-year-old, no?
The photo was taken earlier this year in Boracay, an island in the Philippines famous for its long stretch of white beach.
I didn’t realize somebody sneaked to take a photo of me. I must have been thinking of something while looking at the sunset.
