Went for a walk the other day, saw this rotting tree with this fungus growing on it so decided to take pictures. I made a slideshow on Windows Movie Maker and recorded some backing music with a Kubing on Audacity using condenser microphone.

Me improvising on the Maranao Jaw Harp or "Kubing" as it is called here in the Philippines. To Kathleen Caranto: Katz, maraming maraming salamat sa kubing, labs na labs ko na 'tong instrument na 'to. Salamat ulet. If you notice the loud rooster sounds in the background, it was beyond my control, but I think it goes well with the sound of the kubing.
