Music and Lyrics by Bob Marley 
"Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright.
Singing' "Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright!"

Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Each by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Saying', ("This is my message to you")

Singing' "Don't worry 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright."
Singing' "Don't worry (don't worry) 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright!"

Rise up this mornin',
Smile to the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Each by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', "This is my message to you"

Singin' "Don't worry about a thing, worry about a thing, oh!
Every little thing gonna be alright. Don't worry!"
Singin' "Don't worry about a thing" I won't worry!
"'Cause every little thing gonna be alright."

Singin' "Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright" I won't worry!
Singin' "Don't worry about a thing,
Cause every little thing gonna be alright."
Singin' "Don't worry about a thing, oh no!
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright!"

Baby Shower for Baby DG

Another one, that is. It's the baby boom in Washington DC! Most couples in our circles here in DC have joined the parenthood bandwagon and the most recent in the bunch is Randy and Tin! Baby shower was held on February 7, but I decided to feature it as a February 8 photo of the day. :)

Cheers to the parents-to-be!

Sendoff

We went to the airport for a traditional sendoff of another colleague of Bubbles who is due to be back at the home office in the Philippines.

This is one interesting scene from the sendoff. Incoming DCM talks to outgoing DCM with the missus looking on. :) It's some sort of a debriefing-briefing-sendoff mini-meeting. As for me, I was just there to take the photos.

Good luck and see you soon DCM Ariel!

Arlington Cemetery at Winter

Another throwback photo of the Arlington Cemetery. It's tough to shoot during winter but it's also good as I am able to go back and see what I have shot the past few years. :)

The Dance

Posting some of my old photos that I just opened and edited. :)

Here's one on movement. Photo was taken in one of the cultural shows here in Washington, DC. I think this was from the George Mason University. the University's Filipino Association holds annual cultural shows. We were lucky to have been invited to one of them.

Capitol

This photo was taken in winter 2014, when scaffoldings have not yet enveloped the Capitol dome. This year until next, the Capitol will have its "braces" for its restoration.

The DC Airstrip

“The reason birds can fly and we can't is simply because they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings.”
