Picniked Photo

I ran my photo of the Cagayan de Oro River in picnik. com and got this watercolor effect. It's a combination of effects, myself I couldn't remember exactly what I did, hehe.

Pyrolympics

Fireworks contest.  The first time I tried the fireworks setting in the camera, I got only white; it was daytime.

Ripe Durian Fruit

The fruit that "smells like hell, but tastes like heaven." This is a Puyat variety, with yellow pulp.

"Jathropa curcas"

Called "tuba tuba" here, is a poisonous plant.

Sunset in September. Waiting for red sunsets this summer.
