Himlayang Pilipino [25July10]

It's been two weeks since I last used my camera and it was a good thing that we went to the cemetery to visit my grandma's grave. Himlayang Pilipino, located in Tandang Sora Quezon City, boasts of its rich Filipino heritage where it houses the shrines of two of the Philippine National Heroes, Melchora Aquino (Tandang Sora) and Gen. Emilio Jacinto. The place also displays art pieces, such as stone/brass sculptures depicting Filipino culture/history, Baltazar's Florante and Laura, and the legend of Malakas and Maganda among others.*

I now share what other photographers hate when shooting, getting halted by the guards. Its a good thing I already finished when they asked me to secure a permit. I really don't understand why they require a permit to shoot in a cemetery, where there's no one (for sure) who'll plan to blow the place up. Anyway, hope you enjoy some of my shots. It's quite a few since I was in a hurry due to the rain. Ciao! XD
