A flash of lightning and a burst of fireworks mark the winning snapshots in the recently-concluded CCLEX social media photo contest in Cebu City. Nestor Nardo’s photo of a flash of lightning framing a tower of the Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway bested 109 others in the general entry category. Nardo said he just “got lucky” in capturing the image. For the switch-on category, Francis Gonzaga bagged top prize for his photograph of fireworks filling up the night sky just as the crosses of CCLEX were lit up. The 8.5-kilometer CCLEX, which will serve as the third link of Mactan island to mainland Cebu, is a project of the Cebu Cordova Link Expressway Corporation (CCLEC), in partnership with the local government units of Cebu City and the Municipality of Cordova. CCLEC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), the toll road arm of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC), a publicly listed infrastructure holding company and a member of the MVP Group of Companies.
