It was just a quick passing glance but I recognized it right away! It was the Philippine ‘colors’. We were strolling through the Riverwalk shopping center in New Orleans two months ago and those lovely national flags in a form of an umbrella were hanging up high in the store’s display. I smiled in national pride seeing my country’s flag there.

At the river walk towards our way to the IMAX theater in New Orleans. Behind is the beautiful fountain, soaring up high (in what my G10 camera can vividly capture,) only to fall back down its lowest point with a heavy drop, like the dramas in life. But life is an endless frontier, sure it is beautiful and good things still happen, even much sweeter after the fall.
