Silliman beach in black & white
Sunset at Silliman beach in Dumaguete, a photo by Arnaldo Pellini on Flickr. Went for my usual Sunday evening walk at Silliman beach, nearby our house here in Dumaguete. There was a great autumn sunset light that rapidly faded behind Mount Talinis behind the city and draw nice shadows on the beach and towards the sea. Took this picture handheld with a 35mm 1.8G at f20 lens from the north side of the beach.

Meditare a Mahana Point
Raggiungo Mahana Point con lo scooter che ho affittato alla guesthouse. Sono le tre del pomeriggio. Il sole ha appena iniziato a calare e annunciare l’inizio del tardo pomeriggio. La strada per arrivare fino a qui è dissestata. Una stretta striscia di asfalto che accompagna i sali e scendi di quest’isola brulla e secca che ricorda il nostro meridione. Sembra stonare qui ai tropici, sull’isola di Nusa Ceningan non lontana da Bali. Parcheggio lo scooter […]
Guesthouses and ipads
I am in Bali with Katja, Olga and Venla. More exactly we are in Kuta, south of the provincial capital Denpasar. This is a backpacking trip. We travel with out rucksacks, stay and hostels and guesthouses. The first one is The Island Bay guesthouse. Nice open restaurant/cafè. Great pizzas. A small pool in the yard where the rooms are. There are dorms. There are single room with a large bunker bed that can easily accomodate […]
L’alluvione del tifone Sendong a Dumaguete
Non sono mai stato prima in una zona colpita da un disastro naturale. Ieri ho preso la bici e sono andato verso le colline a ovest di Dumaguete, una delle zone colpite dalle inondazioni provocate dal tifone Sendong il 17. Dicembre scorso. Ho messo delle foto in Flickr a questo indirizzo: . Parto da casa, quartiere Batayan e prendo Rovira Road. Passo la National Road e proseguo lungo la strada che va verso Valencia. Voglio […]
Season Greetings from the Philippines
At times it is possible to find little gems in the little-screen-inflight-movie-world. The other day, while flying to Sydney, I watched Another Earth. It tells the story of an approaching planet which is the exact copy of our Earth. The planet is like a second moon and can be seen up in the sky. Since it is a copy of our planet, it is lived by copies of us (other us) whom we could eventually […]
Books
Nice coincidence here in Dumaguete. The other night I put in alphabetical order the many books I have at home. I first divided them by language: Italian section, English and then Finnish. Then I ordered them alphabetically: first the Italian and then the ones in English. I also decided to mix fiction books with those of development economics and political economy because too many categories usually confuse. The books in Finnish do not have to […]
