I saw a similar photo taking the front page of a prime news bulletin. I just couldnt get it scanned though.

It's great that Dominus was able to get this one.

Sayang yung "sniper". Di nakunan.

Pero... these guys look great.

Ganyan nga ma'am. Sana di lang 1 billion pesos housing kundi modernization na din. :thumb: :thumb:
