Selling hats. It's got to be more fun in the Philippines.
When you see Intricate cloud formations against a clear blue sky... emerald green water as far as your eyes can see... and a gentle surf just beyond the finest powdery white sand beach on this side of the Pacific... you know you are on the party island of Boracay in Aklan. No wonder this paradise is the number one tourist destination in the country, winning accolades every year the world over. Now add a hat vendor with mad merchandising skills. Picture-perfect. Enjoy.
(Pixel-peepers: In a place called paradise, you need a subject that is better still. Don't settle for clichés.)

But wait, there's more...
For those who've inquired about buying prints of my postcards, you may purchase them directly from master printmaker Arnel Murillo (murilloarnel@yahoo.com), one of the country's foremost fine-art printmakers. Arnel uses archival inks and museum-grade paper to ensure his prints will not fade. You will not be disappointed. (All my images are provided gratis to help showcase the beauty of our country. But if you feel generous, help me uplift the lives of the Children of Payatas. No donation is too big or too small. Get in touch with Fr. Aldrin Suan at aldrinsuan@yahoo.com of the Vincentian Missionaries in the Philippines. As always, thanks and enjoy.)
