Had a walk along the city river Pasig in Manila, and found this play of light, stripes and colors.
And someone lurking in the shadows.
The Pasig river runs between Laguna de Bay and Manila bay on Luzon island, the main island in the Philippine archipelago. This river is the main divider of Manila into a northern and southern part.
Recovered from dead
It is technically a tidal estuary, since it direction is depending on the water level of the two bays. Normally, that would follow the rainy seasons. Still a freshwater source, its drainage basin covers 4678 km2.
Destroyed by neglect and industrial pollution, Pasig River was declared biologically dead in 1990. Efforts to clean up and return the river to life resulted in fish, birds and flora returning in the last ten years.

Hindi ito paunahan or payabangan. Just live and enjoy life.
Appreciate sa mga nasa paligid. Huminga at lumaban!
Alam kong pagod na pagod na pagod kana sa mga nangyayari sa buhay at sa araw araw.
Minsan gusto na lang nating sumuko o magpakalayo o ayaw ng kausap. Kasi hindi mo na din alam ang gagawin gusto mo lang mahiga at tumingin sa langit o sa dagat.
I advice you, please do a deep deep breath okay lang umiyak basta matuto ka kung bakit ka umiiyak and keep praying / going. Mahigpit na yakap sayo at sa mga taong patuloy o pilit na lang lumaban dahil walang choice.
sarap naman makita na posible talaga👊👏 pasig river ferry👏👏 #dutertelegacy #buildbuildbuild👊🇵🇭️ #pasigriver #pasigriverferry https://www.instagram.com/p/CL3tMG_LD9IgCeqtEUcHV-1cW0h2_WcTQQhTXE0/?igshid=19oqt69yhjktl
Just an experiment that turned out to be one of the best adventure ever. On my way to Boni, sumakay ako ng bangka "makati-manda tawiran" then a pasig ferry passed by. Then napaisip ako, sakay kaya ko dito tutal meron akong appointment sa Intramuros after manda. Thinking less pagod, less tao, so less contact and time efficient since sa ilog pasig ang daan. So pagbaba ko sa bangka pumunta ko sa hulo station. Then nagtanong ako ng oras ng biyahe. The rest is history. Never imagined na sobrang saya sumakay sa pasig ferry. Usually 1 1/2 to 2 hours na biyahe to 20 min. Most of all "LIBRE". Hindi pa sila naniningil. Ano pa hinihintay nyo? Sakay na! Hahahhaa. 🤣 #pasigriver #pasigriverferry #oneofmybestadventureever (at Pasig River Ferry) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLqzcvDFqSXA1Oz4yhX9mHe7kFY8ncERXWT0gI0/?igshid=1o1ro08sigrq9
