Captured Sunset in Nijmegen Netherlands

After trying my best to capture sunrise on board the train, the beautiful sunset, I was able to see while I was cycling home. Thus, if in the train I could not stop, I was not in express way/ hi-way with my bike so I was able to get down and took my shot steadily. It is still not of the best quality but I love sun as the subject in photo, thus, here they are, sunset at around 20:00...

Tribute Get-together Dinner for the Bride, May Lofranco

Aside from the activity indicated here for thebride, another was organized by colleagues namely Marina, Helma, Graciela, Kaltoum and Irena. It was a fun Friday night just like the ones wealways have had. Great food and discussion. Some photo taking as well.

The only bad part was that I was late for like two hours due to train delay in Utrecht and we were not able to dance or have amake-uplesson from Marina as originally planned.

I posted these images today as I remember that it's already the wedding ofMay in thePhilippines. Congratulations May and Mike!

Surprise Bridal Shower of May Lofranco Bridal Tissue Bouquet & Point the "Mr" Games

The party would have been boring without the games. Thanks to the dedication that Au and Astrid offered. The food was also excellent. The guests were indeed beauty, brains and talented! What else can you/we ask more? The following photos depict two games in a row. One is the "Tissue Paper Bouquet" to be judged by the soon-to-bebride and the "Point the Mister" in the poster. It was fun as expected. The winners enjoyedtheir prices as well.

Hmmm...let me feel the vibration where the "Mr" is...

Eager to grab...and win!

The image with all the markings of all participants... at last, it's Amazing Aileen who won!

So engrossed huh!

The judge and bride to be waiting for her tissue bouquets as the second group work hardly for a beautiful bouquet in the background...

It seems obvious which one she likes... the always winning froup, Group II, wins again!

Bridal Shower of May Lofranco Stripper Portion

It was really funny to assume that there was a "stripper" during the party for May. Even in these photos I can see that May is so red in face (though she has eye covers). Even at somemoment she thought it was "Michael", she was still not sure because she had blind folds on. In short, I was coughing with laughter and we were all screaming as we cheered, which I think one of the factors that made May may red in the face. Here are the photos... (I tried to take a quick video how crazy we were... reduce the volume of your speaker as these ladies here are all screaming mloud...)

It was a success. It seems that everyone did have a lot of fun. It was indeed a surprise for May as she thought it was a birthday party she's going to when in fact it has been weeks that her friends and acquaintances, including her groom-to-be were all preparing that surprise day for her. It was full of food, fun and excitement. That's obvious as you go though the following photos. This certain post only contains the last portion of the event, "the gift giving" from guests/organizers.

Goepfert Park, Spring Themed Shots Week 14 2010

It was a bit sunny today. I fully utilized the day from this morning 'til this afternoon. Although I am still coughing like a wild hound, I feel a bit rested with this 4-day weekend! Back to work tomorrow and 360km daily travel but I am recharged now. This morning, I spent approximately 80 minutes practising the roller skates and it was fun and a great exercise as well. Of course I did my twice (morning + night) exercise in the morning, my abs exercise as well as the push-ups (all light). After lunch, Amore and I decided to head to the park righ away to take advantage of the "very rare" sunny Dutch weather. We stayed half an hour in the park before the sun got shy and hid behind the clouds again. Despite all these, I was still able to capture some sunny (and also cloudy) spring shots. This was in Goepfert park. Here are the photos:
