On the move!

Some different shots of vehicles in the Philippines. I love how if there is any space it is utilised.
Enjoy

Do you know how heavy that load is? It is VERY heavy and the motorbike still gets it done.

the pedi cab drivers stopping for a break.

Chicken anyone?

8 people on this bike, the most I have seen is 12, only I did not have a camera at the time! Amazing!

Jeepney's awaiting their passengers

A pit stop on the side of the road for a visit to a couple of local food stalls.


I bet you never realised a motorbike and side car could carry all of this!

Most Filipinos love having their picture taken.

Notice the scales, it is for the fish in the yellow bucket! Very resourceful.

This guy looks scary! but just riding a bike and the head dress absorbs the sweat and protect the face from constant sunburn

Hey Joe!!

There is always room for one more.

carrying fresh water to the shop owners whose shops do not have running water!

a Mobile shop that literally comes to you! How ingenious, there are heaps of these mobile shops selling food and drinks to the people.

A local beggar boy who watches your car for a few measly cents while you go shopping.

packing their food supplies in a ute.

local beggar boys having fun on top of the cars they are minding! I would die if they jumped around on my car, but no-one gets upset.

everyone shares the road


A performance jeep on steroids. It also had a picture of a sub machine gun on the back saying
"Baby on Board"! Yes sir!

These photos are great, but I also like the second one down (after your opening remarks) in your "Paradigm ..." post.

It looks like it rains a lot there, Craig. Boy, we could sure use some of that here in Texas!

WOW. That is an amazing bunch of photos. I'm shaking my head in disbelief at how much a motorcycle can carry around...

Seems like you were able to catch one end of the spectrum to the other. Pepsi signs to chickens to sports jerseys to beggar boys.

I love these types of photos....but you know that. ;)

You got some excellent "a day in the life" photos of these men and boys.

I laughed out loud at your commentary about the boys jumping on the car.....how you'd die if they did that to yours. LOL
Me too.
