Mundane and Momentous

TAGUM CITY, PHILIPPINES—There's something about the iconic New City Hall of Tagum that keeps folks from all walks of live marvel at its hugeness and state-of-the-art facilities, acting like a magnet which attracts people to visit it every now and then.

Cliché as it may sound, but last week’s atmosphere in JV Ayala Avenue is enough testament why it’s more fun here in this once sleeping municipality.

On New Year’s Eve, while everybody is excited for the grand fireworks display set up by the City Government of Tagum, I had brought along with me a Sony FX HD Camera (for video recording) and a Canon DSLR (for still images). Unfortunately, the photos I took during the 30-minute fireworks display failed me. An epic fail failure for the new year. Good thing there's this video I edited:
