the beauty of taking stills

i recently went home to calbayog riding alone my motorcycle. brought along of course my camera and placed it inside the motorcycle’s u-box. as i passed along barangay burabod at around 6:00 in the afternoon, i wasn’t able to help myself but to stop and unpack my eos5dmk2 as i have to capture this scenery. beautiful play of magical colors in this place is just an ordinary thing to the community until i showed them (bystanders) my takes thru the camera’s 3-inch lcd screen, they were astonished with what they saw…
for me, there’s a lot of common scenes that if captured by camera, become pleasing and uncommon to one’s ordinary eyes. that instance in barangay burabod made me love photography more. it’s a kind of inspiration to me that the beauty of the good old earth is just anywhere. we just have to be aware and mindful about our relationship with it. light, colors, and forms are just around, oftentimes overlooked, but patiently waiting for somebody who appreciates the beauty of taking stills…
