Streets of the Philippines

“A street that you have never visited is a book that you have never read! You never know what you are missing! – Mehmet Murat Ildan

Walking the streets of the Philippines is fun and exciting. It’s not hard to take shots of people unaware… whether it be the working class people, students, teachers, people cleaning the streets, people shopping or even just sitting around doing nothing.

    Hi Teresa, the people , for the most part, are so busy. I bet you could take candid shots like these every day. It would make an interesting book!

      Maybe I could. But yes, Philippines is a good place to take candid photos because there are so many people at one given place.
