I grew up in Ilocos Norte, another beautiful province you may want to visit, but i have to give this up to you.
You captured the essence of Philippine's simplicity and charm. The smiles of the kids are warm. The service and hospitality is evident. But the vivid colors shows a view to a simple Paradise. Warm, nostalgic for us who know about it, and sickening. Sick, because we are not there for now. I will be there with my family in March 08'.
Thanks for this heart stopping yet marvelous scenes. The pics are truly captivating. So excuse me while i'll bury myself in depression while looking these pics.
San Mig please? Serve that with a good sisig or "sarabasab". And make that to go please.. or in P.I. lingo "take out ho ". ( I always longed to say that)
Straight to damn Los Angeles California, yeah. for now.
Wow AMAZING! You guys are so good! I love it all. My boyfriend will arrive in Philippines really soon from France. If he sees this very nice pictures you made, he might want to fly to Philippines the next day after looking at your Philippine Photo Gallery. Hahaha! But he needs to wait for next month to fly here in Phils. I will definitely show this to him. Our destination is Palawan and Boracay so this photos are just perfect for him to see plus he could see the City where I am, near Makati City. Great JOB! Lovely Pictures!
CATH
the photos are very clear. it doesn't only shows beautiful places in our country, it shows also the simple yet happy life of the Filipino. i suggest also that you visit some northern destination like Sagada and Baguio those are really spectacular places. thank you so much!! :)
I thank you for such a wonderful photo galleries. Great job! I always want to show off the beautiful places and sites we have in our country, specially from Palawan where im from, Now Im here in the USA and with these pics. i can show these to my friends. thanks a lot!

kersti, i dont know whar ro say, but you surely deliver fantasric images here back home with so much professionalism..thnak you very much... jm ....from long beach
Excellent Photos. I lived at Subic Bay in the mid 70's, What a neat place to live for a couple years. My father was in the Navy. I wonder if anyone old enough to remember the mid 70's and the tv commercials comming out of Manila ? There were movie trailers from time to time for then the national martial arts star. His name as it sounded was "Lee to laup ey" - "stunt man, action star"
I haven't been able to find any information about him on the internet anywhere. Any hints ??
Once again thanks for all the great photos.
TED...The action star you were asking about is "LITO LAPID". He was indeed the hottest action star back then. I was just a little kid and didn't care much, he may be trying to get into politics right now, I'm not too sure though. The pictures are so captivating, it made me miss home, especially the food. It's been 13 years. Thank you very much fo sharing these beautiful photos.
this it for Ted. I was making a research and came upon this one. The name of the then action star you were mentioning is Lito Lapid. He's now a senator I think. You can googgle him to find out more. Hope this helps!
I'm a filipino residing in london, upon viewing your pictures of my home country, I was gripped with extreme nostalgia. fantastic almost unexplainable feeling. thank you very much
Kersty... Thank you for sharing such beautiful pictures of my native land. I have my 7 year old son working on a heritage report and he found these sights and animals to be perfect.
You really helped me appreciate how gorgeous the islands can be.
From a 37 yr old american raised filipina girl. You are wonderful!
Your photos are GREAT!!! They are so INSPIRING and very IMPRESSIVE... you simply knew how to showcase the natural beauty of the Philippines with great sensitivity. Well done!
My name is Jose, an artist from the Philippines residing in California right now. I like very much how you capture all the reality about my country. I am planning to go back one day and do the same as you did so I could have the model for my paintings in which Philippines is my subject. Now that I found your impressive works, I could not wait anymore to take photos back home. Can I ask your permission if I could use some of your photos for my paintings.
Hello Kersti,
My husband and I will be visiting Manila and Palawan very shortly. Do you have any advice as to what we should pack or sights/activities you would highly recommend? Any suggestions would be higly appreciated!
Thanks.
Absolutely amazing. Excellent taste in shots. Wow. You've made me realize that amidst the supposed problems of the Philippines, it's really up to you to choose the images you want in your mind.
Nice images in your gallery. Learning to change composition to take the subject out of the dead center of the frame would improve many of your images greatly. Keep shooting. I wish I had the opportunity to shoot pictures at such a beautiful place.... maybe someday.
"A picture is worth a thousand words"...and you show it with clarity. I can give my life of comfort here to live in a paradise like the islands in the Philippines. God bless the children...
Beautiful photos. Our search led us to this website as we are planning to relocate from boring, cold Estonia to warm and nice Philippines, at least for a year or two.
Kersti, could we contact you, if you don't mind?
You have the most beautiful photos of the Philippines I have ever seen on the Net. Thanks for sharing.

I think this is the most dramatic and most beautiful presentation of my homeland in photography. The best one i've seen in the net so far. Thanks for all these stuffs. It really made me very proud of my homeland. Best regards.
Kersti, you don't understand how your pictures make me feel......makes me miss my country and my family so much. As bad as it is in the Philppines today, economically and politically, those pictures gives the Filipinos something to be proud of. thnx for those pics!
this gallery is so beautiful. Last year I spent 7 month in the Philippines and I really can say that I like this country. That`s the reason why I go back in two weeks.... :-)
Thanki you for this nice pictures!
