lovely photos as always! and i agree.. it’s good enough to be stolen again. hahaha!
Hi Mr Dee, your Dinagyang pictures are awesome, are you a professional photographer? What brand of camera are you using? I’m an ilongo living in San Diego, CA. I really miss Iloilo, Thanks for the pictures you shared with us, I knew some local newspapers in Iloilo stole your pictures without permission. Shame on them.
Helo Rey,
I am using a Nikon DSLR camera, nope.. i am not a professional photographer. but my main bread and butter is travel blogging.
