From the album: The statues: Hogmoor Inclosure photos
A lonely, naked man standing on his perch in one of the few permanent ponds in the Hogmoor Inclosure. Most of the other ones - (the ponds, that is!) - seem to dry out when we get an extended dry spell; (which is not really surprising since the underlying soil is just about all sand and sandstone...) The wooden statues were, apparently, created by sculptor David Lloyd. More on this, here: https://www.princephilippark.co.uk/wb-story/public-art/1 point -
From the album: Mike Herrera Paintings
Image courtesy of artfreaks.com member Noel L. Laxamano. He writes: "I never thought that a Mike Herrera original was hanging in our living room! Here is his rendition of everyday Filipino activities in the early 19th century in the infamous Binondo, Manila. The work is oil on canvas, measuring 30in (height) x 50in (length)..."1 point -
From the album: Mike Herrera Paintings
A Mike Herrera painting depicting a cock-fight (or "sabong") scene in the Philippines. "Sabong" being the cockfight, the guys with their prize cockerels are. of course the "sabongeros!" This painting was seen in an art gallery in Ermita, Manila some time around the year 20051 point -
From the album: Mike Herrera Paintings
I don't know if Mike ever gave this painting a title. The image title is just one that I made up - and the scene could just as easily have been a late afternoon one - just before sunset! This would have been a photo that I took of the painting some time ago at an art gallery in Mabini Street, Ermita, Manila. (I see that the EXIF info. for the photo shows that it was taken on the 31st of May, 2006...)© Mike Herera estate

From the album: Night Photography and Lights Reflecting in Water
Pink Tropical Water Lilies (or "Lotus," if you prefer!) These beautiful lilies grow in a ditch beside the road in Soi Sukjai, between Soi 40 and Soi 42 off the Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok. Apparently, they were just thrown in there, years ago, by the owner of the house behind were they grow. Like most tropical water lilies, the flowers only open at night...1 point -

...or something like that!! Something or other whizzing past the window whilst traveling at high speed on the Shinkansen between Kokura and Hakata. Don't ask me what it was - I don't know!!

Jumong resting like a baby and making himself perfectly at home - even though he is not my dog! (He just sleeps inside the house at night, in order to prevent a repeat of the incident when he was viciously stabbed in the neck by a drug-crazed neighbor of mine... The wound is clearly visible but, after only 3 days, it is hardly even swollen - hence the "Bionic Super Dog" bit!!) Unlike Shoubi, he seems to prefer the bare floor tiles, to the rug provided for him!1 point -

Filipino fishermen hauling their nets in the early morning. The local, wooden fishing boats with outriggers are know as "bangka," in this part of the Philippines. Photo taken from aboard c.s.

Jumong is just incredible! This shot of Jumong and Shoubi playing silly buggers, (as usual!) was taken just 18 hours after Jumong was stabbed in the kneck by a drug-crazed neighbor of mine. Not only is he already back to normal, eating like a horse, he's actually up and playing with Shoubi as if nothing had happened!1 point -

Shoubi, a really soppy Pit Bull Terrier bitch that I bought from one of my neighbors here in the Philippines. (I had been taking care of her for the previous year, in order to save her from being kept couped up in a tiny little cage... By the time her previous owners decided to sell her, I had already become quite attached to Shoubi and I couldn't stand the thought of her being bought by someone else and spending the rest of her life on a short piece of chain - or in another small cage...) Here she is, making herself perfectly comfortable on her own private rug!!1 point -

Eddie Boy is the guy who looks after Shoubi for me when I am away and he often takes her for walks even when I am home. I think Shoubi loves Eddie more than me - but that's OK... Just as long as she is happy!1 point -
From the album: Dogs
One of the guard dogs at the Madilosa family residence in Davao del Sur, Mindanao, Philippines. (I sometimes stay with the madilosa family when I am in that part of the country.) Total "askal" (aso kalye - lit. "street dog") this one! Very nervous at first and took a long time before it really got used to me. I was eventually able to take it for short walks but it really didn't like being too far from familiar territory1 point -

I don't think this dog has a name - I just call him "Scruffy!" He's looking very pleased with himself here as he has just got back from a long walk around the rice paddies!1 point -

My mate, Tim Penycate's dog. Another RSPCA rescue dog. Not a pedigree but pretty well pure German Shepherd. (I'm not sure where the crooked tail comes from but it in no way alters the fact that Benj is one of the most handsome dogs that I have ever come across!) Here he is, full of energy and really enjoying a day out on M.o.D land at Woolmer Forest, Whitehill, Hampshire, in the South of England, UK1 point -
