Philippines  June 14, 2013


                               Photo of MM and clouds just right after take off

I did a photo study of the clouds on the way to Iloilo.  These are truly amazing for first time or the well traveled individual.  I was seated at 22f, near the window and near the wing.

                                    Where the view of land, sea, sky and wing meet


                                 All you can see are clouds at this point


                                      The cloud, the wing and the sea


                                    Flying through the clouds



                                      The clouds, mountain, and the sky

Air Quality is deteriorating everywhere - can be dangerous to bikers?!

Rizal , PHL   June 2, 2013

 At Robinson's Home commercial complex near Antipolo Teresa boundary

For the last two months, I took the hobby of taking MM pollution pictures more seriously.  I used to take pictures only at the Lakeside park.  But now whenever I can I photograph cases of air pollution.  You can see how the air quality has gone from good to bad if not worse.

I quit jogging and marathon because the competition were being held in MM and I felt joining these affected my health.  Please see visually the air quality of places where we bike


                                     Tricycles pollute the air 24/7; are there further doubts?



                                       Pollution has reached Tanay mountains?


                                    From your friendly tricycle driver;  more smoke


                                    Hazy atmosphere assaults the noses of bikers in Teresa


                                    More pollution pictures in Teresa


                                       Pollution near Avida


                                  Air pollution from tricycles, please go away


                                  Distant air pollution from tricycle

                               Jeepneys in concert at one way section past Beverly Hills

                                    Dirty air near Robinson Homes


                                      Day become night at this area  at one way area in Antipolo


                                 Ascending Beverly Hills;  the jeep hides the road


                                  Tricycles in unison smothers the air with white smoke


                                    An MTB gets a puff of dark air near SM going to Tower Hills


                                    Tricycle again a culprit of air pollution


                                  The jeepney and tricycle - the king and queen of  air polluters



                                  SM is pro green or SM are first two letters of SMoke?
