CEBU MOUNTAINEERING SOCIETY @ 20 - A PHOTO EXHIBIT

CELEBRATING TWENTY YEARS, the Cebu Mountaineering Society (CeMS) recently held a photo exhibit at the third level of Ayala Center-Cebu on November 6-8, 2009. It was an appropriate occasion to mark its storied existence in the local mountaineering hub with the display of some of the best picture shots taken by members and non-members.


In short, it is a graphic historical essay of CeMS and by its members during their outdoor sorties here in the Philippines and abroad. Accompanying the photos were a collage of images and literature on tarpaulin sheets propped up to ensnare the interest of viewers and visitors about CeMS and the sport of mountaineering.


The exhibition space were provided free courtesy of Ayala Center-Cebu. Ayala Mall is a corporate partner of CeMS and the duo have been responsible for the installation of steel signages with environmental-awareness message on the camping area in and around Mount Manunggal in Balamban, Cebu.


CeMS also thanked the sponsorship of TWO Sandals, the Habagat Outdoor Shop and Red Tag Printing & Signages.


Below are the images taken with a Nokia 3650 during the event on November 8, 2009 -

Here are some of the sample photographs displayed at the exhibition area -
