For over four decades I have been a rail and bus photographer.
However, during this time I have aimed the lens at other subjects, be they different transportation, scenery, buildings and other bollocks.
Given these do not really fit the scope of my other sites, I felt compelled to set up a new site so as to inflict my other photographic garbage upon the world. While primarily Philippine and Australian content, there will be the occasional forays into Fiji and Hong Kong. Perhaps other locations should the current pandemic ever allow it.
So sit back and enjoy, or hate, even be indifferent. That choice is purely up to you.
From a young age, I’ve had a fascination with buses and trains, a passion that naturally extended to the Philippines during my first visit in 1999. Since then, I’ve returned 14 times, capturing countless photographs of the diverse transportation landscape.
Given the sheer volume of images, I often find it overwhelming to share them all on social media. To keep the enthusiasm alive (and maybe entertain a few others along the way), I’ve decided to launch an occasional series here on my travel blog.
Over the past decade, the bus hobby in the Philippines has flourished, reflecting the vibrant variety of bus operators and models that traverse the islands.
SM City North EDSA is one of Metro Manila's largest malls, located in Quezon City along EDSA. Since opening in 1985, it has grown to include a vast array of shops, dining options, and entertainment facilities.
Known for its diverse retail offerings and convenient access to public transport like the MRT-3, it remains a popular destination for shopping, dining, and leisure activities in the metro area.
Not to mention an impressive collection of Tanduay Rhum for consumption after a long dreary day visiting all these outlets.
SM City North Mall
In 2007, I embarked on a mission to document as many traditional jeepneys as possible, in 2023 I started with SM City North where these classic vehicles were still a prominent feature. Despite the presence of a few of the new 'Fakeneys,' it was a rewarding experience to be able to witness the authenticity of these iconic vehicles.
For those traveling by rail, access to the location is convenient via the MRT3 North Avenue station, and the anticipated extension of LRT1 to the same area promises same. The terminal's location is marked with a red X in the accompanying photos.
Visit soon to witness the abundance of the real 'King Of The Road' before it potentially disappears.
