summer sundown

May 17th, 2010

- a telephoto landscape.   the beauty of using telephoto lens resulting to a clean shot that focuses only on the light and colour of the sky, contrasted against the simple shapes of the landscape. am now starting to like telephoto lens for landscapes and can’t imagine traveling without taking it with me!

just to share a quote

May 12th, 2010

just want to share this quote which i tried to reflect on… “I now measure my growth as a photographer in terms of the degrees to which I am aware of, have developed my sense of, and have the skills to symbolize visually the four-dimensional structure of the universe. ” -Wynn Bullock

beyond ordinary things

February 11th, 2010

traveled place:  Villareal and Talalora, Samar

in this trip,  i tried to observe the quote by Morley Baer, “Quit trying to find beautiful objects to photograph. Find the ordinary objects so you can transform it by photographing it.”

Almost always, if we go to someplace, we look for exciting or beautiful scenes in order to get ‘great shots’. but how about if the place offers nothing of your expectation?  The challenge is, take everyday objects or ordinary scenes and transform them into something special… and along the way, it will allow us to see ‘ordinary’ things in a new different way.

some of my attempts…
