And life goes on

at the bottom of the pedestrian overpass on the North side of Philcoa
A typical scene near major public transportation hubs in Metro Manila, with jeepneys, vendors, graffiti and glued-on announcements on footbridge pillars, thick and tangled utility cables, and people texting.

    It is very nice to see your name in lights! Glad you're back!

    I love this slice-of-life shot. It is quite amazing that all over the world, at any given moment, probably 50% of the people are texting!
