Neutral Ground's Photo of the day - August 17, 2008

Scott Kelby’s 2nd Annual Worldwide Photo walk - Tondo, Manila Leg

Scott Kelby’s 2nd Annual Worldwide Photo walk" July 18, 2009


Meeting Place: In front of Tondo Church, Manila
Meeting Time: 9:00 to 10:00 am

Photo Walk Route: Tondo Church to Moriones Street going to PNR / Tutuban Center Mall.


The weather the past few days was gloomy. It keeps on raining. Good thing, we were blessed with nice weather during Photowalk.

Participants meet up at Chowking restaurant near Sto. Nino church in Tondo, Manila. Photowalk leaders Tristan and RJ 'One' were on the registration attending to the participants queries. In a few minutes the group were instructed to form a small group of five-member. Mellany and I joined with Nette,Joan and Albert. Nette and Albert were familiar in the place so we just follow them wherever they go.

We roamed around Tondo church and the streets of Moriones. When you're in Tondo or any part of Manila, it seems like the people never sleep. Lahat nagmamadali! Survival of the fittest ang labanan! Pity because the progress were not apparent. You'll see homeless families in the vicinity of the church. Their kids wander and constantly ask for money. I just can't aim my camera at them and force to take picture. Quite depressing but it's the reality. You'll be surprised though because they will flash a smile at you specially the kids.

Here's my share on the photowalk experience. Please click on the link to see my other two photos: Tondo
