You are right Mase, Super typhoon Megi was a bad one, a category 5 when it hit land on the east coast yesterday and certainly gave us a sleepless night even it lost some strength when passing the mountains in direction here. We still feel the effect as it's now pretty stationary in the ocean about 160km straight west of us. . We started to feel the effects around 12 noon yesterday here in La Union and one hour later the power was cut. At that time Pia put on some heavy duty Helly Hansen 60's rain gear and we made around 200 shots with 2 different colored rain suits in the rain and heavy wind before we locked ourselves into the room wearing our protective rainwear for the night.
We got the power back around 1pm today (Tuesday) and then Pia got the brilliant idea to call some friends for another wet photo session. The wind was still rather strong, but the rain was not too bad so I ended up to shoot around 1000 photos with 3 young beauties around in our garden and at the beach.
The girls got wet and cold and same did I, my camera suffered rain, fine sand and salty water, but we did had lots of fun doing the shooting and I now have lots of new good photos for future sets to come at ShinyAsianGirls
Typhoon Megi was probably 2-3 times heavier when it hit land yesterday than Pepeng that did us so much damage one year ago, but luckily we did not suffer much damage from Megi until now. It's still out there, still giving us wind and rain. It's re-consolidate, but hopefully it will slowly start to move westward in direction China in the next 24 hours.
Enjoy the sample photos taken live during super typhoon Megi (Juan) yesterday and today
