Scott Kelby's Worldwide Photowalk

Filipino participants, the Binondo & Quiapo group in Manila, to the worldwide photowalk held last July 18, 2009 poses for souvenir group shots along the plaza in front of the Binondo church just before the rains spoiled the fun. Still, the activity was a success with more than 70 photographers, mostly members of the Flickr group the Flickristasindios, from different skill levels participating. Indeed the streets from Quiapo to Binondo was an eye opener to most of the participants as they saw and captured the realities revealed along the way. while to the more acquainted ones with street shoots and the location, it was another chance to inter-act with the regular subjects of the area and capture whatever the place may present anew.

Masjid al-Dahab (Golden Mosque)

Located at the end of Globo de Oro Street in Quiapo, the Masjid al-Dahab, popularly known as the Golden Mosque, because of the golden color of its dome, was built in 1976 thru the initiative of then First Lady Imelda Romualdez-Marcos to coincide with the visit of Libya’s former strongman Muammar Gaddafi, which was then cancelled. The mosque is the largest in the city and has become the center of Islam in Manila

The Flickristasindios officially did the photo documentation of the "Ako Mismo Dog Tag Day" at the Fort Bonifacio Global City last June 12, 2009.
