“The City Of Gentle People”: Here Are 36 Of My Favorite Photographs

In the heart of the Visayas region of the Philippines, the Dumaguete life is city life with an air of island life, and people live at a pace as if with plenty of time on their hands. It is, after all, 'The City of Gentle People'; a culture with a deeply held belief that even in the most difficult of times, there is always a reason to have a good time.

These photographs are part of a wider street and documentary photography series; a long-term passion project which I have named 'Catch a Moment'. Within the photographs in this series, I aim to catch fleeting, isolated incidents of everyday life whereby layers of dynamic elements convene into one frame. Some are humorous and some are simply tricky to the eye - split-second moments frozen in time forever.
