Ating Ultimo Adios: Sa Nakahahapis Sa Mga Kalye ng Metro Manila

This photography book is about grasping the varied colors of living with grit and grace in the streets of Metro Manila. Its photos present how common folks put up with vices and risks; how they go with the flow like grown-ups playing in sidewalks; and how they struggle to get up on their feet. With the title of this book drawn from “Mi Ultimo Adios”, the last poem of Dr. Jose Rizal, the Philippine’s national hero, may you bid your last farewell, your ‘ultimo adios”, to the woeful scenes of Metro Manila. Regard the lamentable images in this book as vintage photos of the period before you got involved, and before you truly cared about and helped improve the heartrending conditions in Metro Manila.
