One of my favorite photos...


Here's another photo from the Philippines trip. This is one of my favorite photos!

The rice terraces were amazing--hundreds of years in the making/maintaining. The water comes from the top. Then they make little rivulets that allow the water to trickle down from terrace to terrace. No water pumps needed!

Lois Holly and i went the following year and this was amazingly beautiful. I think the name of this place was Banauie. It is probably spelled differently though.

This is also one of my all-time-favorite photos! It captures Dad's intensity in getting 'the shot' don't you think? I think it's Banawe, no Banaue, no, I can't remember! It's pronounced ba NOW ee. What a gorgeious place!

At least no one had to wait for Dad to get ready to take the picture! We're thankful now for all the pictures he took.
