Siesta on the Street

March 15, 2009
Binondo, Philippines

My first ever Photowalk. With Che, Mian and Caloy...

Siesta - a nap in the afternoon, especially in hot countries.


As I sat down to catch my breath..I wanted nothing more than to take a short nap - powernaps, catnaps or just plain siesta is something I don't indulge in often...

Definitely it is something I can't do on the public streets of this area!

I could only look longingly at this guy who could rest so carefree....though he seems to be thinking about his problems while dreaming the afternoon away...

* Automatic mode, Fujifilm FinePix 602Zoom. C&C if you want to indulge in siesta too...

  6. Unat means stretched out correct. Thinking sleeper? Maybe thinking of where to get the next meal.

  8. I hope nobody gets mad that I take pictures of unsuspecting sleepers on the street..but my take is..hey its a public area...prepare to be...uhm...featured..and I certainly didn't want to wake him up to get his permission hehehe

  9. Hindi ba? Maganda yon. Bubble with Piolo holding a plate of Max fried chicken. A grimmer one is that of a dog chained to a post and a cauldron of boiling water behind him.
