Bicol Blossoms (Part 3)


My search for one of my favorite subjects for my hobby has led me to the neighboring province of Camarines Sur. I visited a friend's farm somewhere in Cararayan, Naga City. The lot is about a couple of hectares and is free from any of the smog that wraps downtown. It boasts of a game fowl area as well as hogs and cows. To my delight, I found a few specimens some of which are posted here. The others? Well, let's just say that I'm saving them for something special.

Bicol Blossoms (Part 2)


Our survey of the different beauties from the southern tip of Luzon continues. This time we focus on those that thrive by the highway into the province of Sorsogon. These delicate forms were found particularly near the villages of Putiao in Pilar and Cumadcad in Castilla. The others were sighted in Pangpang, Sorsogon City and on the road going to the town of Prieto Diaz. Although there exists a variety of colors, those shown here are those that are sure to capture a woman's fancy. (All photos by J. Garalde)
