going from pretty to creepy

Mount Pinatubo Philippines

Some black and white photos really are pretty creepy.. but it always depends on the scene, on the background, on how they're shot.  Some have got this strange aura that will keep your eyes on it for quite a long time.. imagining something have had moved on the very corner on the darker side of the photo; a kind of feeling a colored photo won't give.  The dark side of photography. hihi  :>

a long trek to Mount Pinatubo's crater lake

This has been one of the longest walk I've had, although it's not difficult, it's the long stairs that made me almost pass out.. that's when you reach the end of the trail.  I guess it's always like that; long stairs after a long walk.. is it to test your strength?  Can't we just settle for a long walk?

I was crawling up to the last steps in Mount Pinatubo's crater, not knowing that I'm facing another moooooooore steps down to the crater lake.  But of course we were rewarded with a glorious view and a very fine weather.

The sun was up, shining bright, but we never felt the heat because the cool breeze absorbs it in an instant.  We admired it for a long and almost nonstop photo shoots before we settle down for lunch.
Okay, I'll tell you about the long walk., a long walk to remember? (lol)
