A view of Ayala Avenue

A view of a section of the Makati Central Business District from the office window. Ayala Avenue, the WallStreet of the Philippines is located at the left most side of the picture. If you look closely you will see a slight smudge near the top of the photo. This is because the window from which this shot was taken was a little dirty. I wonder why those window cleaners that hang precariously from outside haven't been doing their job lately...

Giant Globe

This is the giant metal-framed globe that can be found at a roundabout in front of the SM Mall of Asia which is the largest mall in the Philippines and the 6th largest in the world. The globe changes its color from blue to red, purple, green and gold and kind of reminds me of a similar structure in Universal Studios in the US.

GT Tower International

Standing at 220 meters, GT Tower International is one of the tallest buildings in the country. This tower of angles of steel and glass is one of my favorite buildings in Makati, and it also happens to be my office location. The interesting cloud formation above the building makes it look like the 'Angel of Death' is passing over the place. :-p

Mabuhay! You are viewing Manila, Philippines.

Metro Manila is the capital of the Philippines.

At 12 million residents, it is one of the most populous and cosmopolitan cities in Asia.

This shot overlooking the central business district was taken aboard a plane enroute to the white sandy beaches of Boracay, located on an island south of Manila.
