Love the red building - SO not California!

Oh, and the guy propping up the shop wondering WTF is going on is priceless! (y)



Nice perspective BTW! It was worth it taking that camera! ;)

Thanks for the warm welcome, guys! :whip:

Nick, I decided to bring the S100 with me instead since I couldn't achieve the same results with my other point and shoot and I thought it would be a wasted opportunity if the pics were just so-so.

More pics are on the way and they're "baking in the oven" as we speak. ;)

So where did Indy go when he took that jeepney ride?

Indy heads off to Sun Cruises right next to the PICC to get a boat ride ticket to Corregidor Island.

Waiting in line to get his ticket:

Just chilling out in the waiting area 'til the shuttle bus arrives:

Gets bored and stands by the window to check out Manila Bay:

At the shuttle bus drop-off, waiting to board the ferry:

Ahh, finally gets comfy on the upper deck:

Hungry, or thirsty?

Finally, the boat is set in motion and he decides to walk to the stern:

Just enjoying the view:

What you meant by "in the oven" no doubt.

Any unique sights in that corner of the globe?

Thanks, Rocket Surgeon. Yes, there's definitely some post prod work involved but it's kept to a minimum, just so things don't look silly. :p CS 5.1 does wonders!

You'll see very soon... ;)

Dang, the visual quality of these shots is amazing. I'm starting to get nervous here!

Keep up the excellent work - it looks like Indy's having a blast!

Hello guys...

Just to let you know, Indy's back with me here in California. Sorry for the lack of posts lately, been dealing with jetlag and family stuff's also getting in the way. Rest assured tho that TI is safe and sound. Hopefully I'll be able to post the remaining pics by the end of the week before I hand him off to Nick. Cheers! :gun:

When Indy arrived in Corregidor...

MDP78, glad to see you brought Indy back safe & sound and welcome to The Raven!:hat:

Your 2 photos inside the tunnel and the one at the stern of the boat are my favourites. Looking forward to more!
