It’s so unlike Greece where the light is incandescent.

That’s fascinating MM, you’ve just discovered a natural way to make a scene look ethereal, we can officially call this Photos ala MM, hahaha! This reminds me of Costa Rica photos which gives the appearance of liquid amber and so unlike Tuscany or the South of France or Crete, this is a very palpable experience in addition to being a visual masterpiece. Costa Rica has this prehistoric light, almost as if you expect to see a dinosaur emerging anytime. It is so unlike Greece, where light is almost incandescent.

Bacolod is such a beautiful place. A friend who lives there has been inviting us for the longest time to visit. The Araneta ancestral house looks very well maintained.

Thank goodness it was just a fogged up lens causing the pics to have an otherworldly quality to them. My imagination was running wild and I was beginning to think of spooky things. :-)

This is perfect for a movie location, I would imagine a movie like “somewhere in time” being shot here. There are actually numerous “attractions” in Bacolod/Negros that yet to be discovered.

Hi Everyone, actually picture 1 and 3 is a fogged up lens because I came out of an incredibly cold airconditioned room and walked into the yard and the lens had condensation for a good 15 minutes and hence the “ethereal” photos…hahaha.

Mik and Sonny, The Oro Plata Mata house is the GASTON HOUSE IN MANAPLA. The LACSON-CLAPAROLS HOUSE is where they filmed Gumising Ka Maruja by Lino Broca.
