What’s a flower festival without the flowers? Well, one wouldn’t be disappointed with all the nice floral displays at the Panagbenga Festival in Baguio. There was an exhibit of flowering plants where you can buy some to take home to beautify your gardens. I especially love these hyacinths due to its vibrant and refreshing color.

The Mango Farm is actually situated inside a village. From outside, you wouldn’t really expect to find such a magnificent mango farm inside. The place was just really refreshing. It’s like being in the province. I can imagine setting up a duyan and having siesta under those trees. I could just imagine how it woud look like at night specially with all the lighting effects! How romantic! It was definitely a nice place to hold a wedding. I just really hope it doesn’t rain during the event to fully maximize the ambiance of the venue. Tents would just be a little bit of a spoiler.

I barely had the chance to tinker with my dad’s Nikon D200 since he only had just a week to spend his vacation here.  But of course, I wouldn’t want to let the chance pass me by to try it out.  I was thinking where to go for a photoshoot.  I was thinking of going to Avilon Zoo or to LaMesa Ecopark but was a little to lazy too travel that far and just eventually settled on visiting my university instead.   

 I have been wanting to take photos of those lovely sunflowers lined up at the University Avenue. Finally I was able to!  Although, I guess I was a bit late since most of the flowers were either drooping already or losing their petals.  Oh well.  

I did have fun with the photo shoot, although admittedly, I still have a lot to learn about the D200 to maximize it’s capabilities.  Anyway, I would have gone to the lagoon or someplace else, but darn, that camera is really heavy! Hahaha! Oh well. I really should start getting used to handling it. 

It was a drizzling sunday, but it didn’t dampen anybody’s mood to take part at the festivities of the Panagbenga (flower festival).
