There is a place in human experience where one needs to have one's photo taken beside a famous statue or icon, but I have long since overcome that urge. I'd much rather take photos of people taking photos of themselves (how meta!), or to take random snapshots of humans maximizing their short opportunities at getting their snapshots before their tourist buses leave. It's amazing what people will do—poses that often border on humiliation, which they will soon regret, happily, years thereafter, when someone resurrects them with innocent likes—for a chance to amuse their Facebook friends temporarily.
So here we were.
An iconic photo of a largely unnoticed pond. The doctor in me thought of Aedis aegypti.

Masyadong ginalingan.

The looking-far away pose, which reminds me of creative graduation photos of people where I train.

And my favorite—this kid, tired from all the walking, in the process of hydrating himself.
