Across the street

Taken around noon from the roofdeck of the Loyola School of Social Sciences of Ateneo de Manila University looking east towards Katipunan Avenue in Quezon City. The clouds are just beginning to gather in preparation for the rains that we experience every afternoon. Some of the university's roads and parking areas can be glimpsed through the acacia trees. The tallest building in the photo is Xanland Place, a residential condominium. It's the same building in my Evening sunlight post back in February when summer was just beginning.

    Scattered clouds over scattered trees with some building and a stripe of sky just in the middle.

    Rains every afternoon. I guess I didn't realize that. Well, it sort of cools things down for a bit doesn't it? Nice SkyWatch photo.

    My first thought was this could be a photo of many places in Florida. Looks so much the same.

    Very pretty. I can imagine those condos are relatively pricey, though!
