Shooting in the Philippines
I am the proud owner of a Canon Digital Rebel DSLR, a four year old DSLR, with a 6 megapixel capacity, Yes I know it is old, but I still enjoy shooting with it, and plan to shoot thousands of more images with it before it up and quits (knock knock on the wood). I've taken it virtually everywhere, The Hilton Waikoloa Village on the Big Island, Ground Zero in New York City, San Francisco, Manila, and in the southern Philippines, where the airports have Wanted Dead or Alive posters of the regions most notorious terrorists (and those Abu Sayyafs and MILFs (and no, not MILFs, but Moro Islamic Liberacion Front, islamists) are fubugly.
These are the current bad guys of the Philippines. Janjalani has fortunately been terminated
It isn't really comforting boarding a PAL jet right after you see this poster, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
Anyway, during this trip, I shot somewhere around 3GBs of high resolution (well 6 megapixel) images. Here are just a few
Tricycles are a common mode of transportation, and yes, there must be at least 10 people on that bike.

Sugar is the cash crop on Negros Island. Here is a truck pre-harvest. The harvest didn't officially start for another two months,
but some farmers were desperate. They harvest early but don't yield as much sugar, and the processing is the same. Canon Digital Rebel shutter at 1/80, ISO 100, focal length 45.0mm, at f/7.1

River Rhine
The Rhine is one of the most important rivers in Europe
Origin Grisons, Switzerland
Basin countries Switzerland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Austria, Germany, France, Luxembourg, Belgium, Netherlands
Length 1,320 km (820 mi)
Source elevation Vorderrhein: approx. 2,600 m (8,500 ft)

Avg. discharge Basel: 1,060 m³/s (37,440 ft³/s)

Dutch border: 2,260 m³/s (79,823 ft³/s)
Basin area 185,000 km² (71,430 mi²)
The Rhine (German: Rhein; Dutch: Rijn; French: Rhin; Italian: Reno; Romansh: Rain; Latin: Rhenus) is one of the longest and most important rivers in Europe at 1,320 kilometres (820 mi), with an average discharge of more than 2,000 cubic meters per second. The name of the Rhine comes from the archaic German Rhein, which in turn comes from Middle High German: Rin, from the Proto-Indo-European root *reie- ("to eat, sleep").[1] The Reno River in Italy shares the same etymology.
The Rhine and the Danube formed most of the northern inland frontier of the Roman Empire, and since those days the Rhine has been a vital navigable waterway, carrying trade and goods deep inland. It has also served as a defensive feature, and been the basis for regional and international borders. The many castles and prehistoric fortifications along the Rhine testify to its importance as a waterway. River traffic could be stopped at these locations, usually for the purpose of collecting tolls, by the state controlling that portion of the river.
im stupied haha
