Now, our daily street shots in colors for today is right in the heart of the city is Burnham Park's serene oasis lake stood out as a center of attraction. The lush green trees swayed gently in the breeze, surrounding a picturesque man-made lake that sparkled like a gem for decades. Visitors strolled along the winding paths, taking in the tranquil atmosphere and admiring the natural beauty of the park. As boats glided across the lake, bikes on most corners, children's laughter filled the air, creating a sense of peace amidst the urban rush. This park's charm drew people like me and others from all walks of life, making it a beloved gathering spot and a symbol of the city's harmony with nature.

Still at Burnham Park wherein a group of young students in casual attires gathered to practice their traditional Igorot dances. With infectious enthusiasm their group moved in unison, their feet stomping out the rhythms of their indigenous heritage. Their vibrant smiles and laughter filled the air as they twirled and spun to the beat. Possibly they're part of a school cultural activity or something, these budding performers were eager to showcase their roots and preserve their tribe's rich Igorot traditions.

Then along the roadside near Session road was a row of parked motorcycles lined the pavement and their owners momentarily absent. One owner returned with his helmet and preparing to hop on to his ride. People from all walks of life continued to pass by in different directions and were oblivious to the brief scenic commotion. Some were hurrying to their destinations, while others strolled casually as tourists taking in the sights and sounds of the busy streets.

Then lastly is a roadside leading to the overpass and it was a kaleidoscope of activity with people all over the pavement in every direction. The air was thick with the smells of street food and exhaust diesel fumes as pedestrians squeeze for space. Amidst the hustle and bustle of this cold city, people from all walks of life moved with purpose all the time with their faces a blur of determination and while some with curiosity as they navigated through the crowded roadside towards their particular destinations.
