”Are these really my photos?” I asked myself in disbelief as I was flipping through the latest issue of InFlight Traveller magazine.

A few months back, I sent in some images for consideration on InFlight’s article for Bicol and Quezon province. A number of them got approved and I promptly forgot about it until I saw the latest issue of the mag on newsstands.

CAGSAWA RUIN AND REAL QUEZON

Two of my photos for Bicol (one taken from Legazpi’s Venezia Hotel and another from Cagsawa Ruins) got a full page print while a landscape photograph I took in the coastal parts of Real, Quezon got a spread. It was so refreshing to see my photos in print that it took me a while to recognize them. It looked so much nicer seeing them printed this large.

PANCIT HABHAB AND KESONG PUTI FROM THE PAHIYAS FESTIVAL IN QUEZON

It’s a rare moment when I actually get to find my photos beautiful. And this is definitely one of those times. Big thanks to InFlight Traveller for giving me the opportunity to share a few of my images. InFlight Traveller issue 3 is now available on bookstores nationwide.
