The Streets of Manila from Inside a Car – Part 2
A continuation of my previous post about taking pictures of the street from inside a car. I managed to find some more pictures that I liked and decided to show them off here in the blog. Enjoy!
“A classic car stuck in traffic (well, us too…) on the Southern Luzon Expressway – I wonder if it had air-conditioning….”
“Caution”
“Metro-aide – Public street cleaners (Must be a really tough job in the hot and humid Philippine weather)”
“The Doorman”
“OK, he was CLEARLY blocking the driveway!”
“Umm…. guys, I think we have found Superman’s secret hideout!!!”
“I can’t imagine this to be a very comfortable position to sleep in…”
“Tricycles” “Pedicabs”
“Early morning traffic (although this was still pretty tame)”
“Polluter – Who knew that the little motorcycle engine could spew so much smoke!? He needs to get that checked out!”

Taking pictures is more fun in the Philippines.
Riding in 3 wheel transpo as in pedicab, tricycle, trike and the like is lot more fun in the Philippines.

just to correct, that “Tricycle” is not really called tricycle…. its called PEDICAB…”pedi” for feet because your feet will do the work, and “cab” is the transpo itself… Tricycles are operated by machine, pedicabs are by feet… food for the mind… 😉 but great work btw…kudos!;)

Astig, man! Great shots and a good idea…must give this drive-by-shooting a try when I’m next in Manila. PS Love the pedicab shots, they’re a dying breed elsewhere in Asia ;D Keep up the great shots and posts! (because I’m going to follow you now 😉 )
