Zambales 2009

My friends and I were able to take a short trip to Zambales. Finally got that much needed break. I needed to veer away from the the office for a while. We stayed at Trinidad Bay Resort. I highly recommend this place. They have very affordable prices and the crew are very polite and hospitable. It was worth every peso we spent. We went to Potipot Island for their wonderful beach. It's a very small island but it has nice sand. I liked the beach although there's almost nothing else to do there. Perfect if you just want to enjoy relaxing by the beach. Enjoy the photos!

Very Busy Me

It's been a while since I last updated this blog due to my hectic schedule. Work during weekdays and photoshoot on weekends. Of course, I never fail to spend quality time with my girlfriend.

Here are some snapshots of what I was doing lately:


 Attended a wedding

 Went to my uncle's interment (R.I.P.)

 Experimented with long exposures since electricity is out

 Participated in the office halloween party

 Visited the cemetery

Impending Doom

I took this photo before the typhoon Ondoy hit Metro Manila.
From the way it looked, I thought things would get ugly. True enough. Philippines was devastated.

P a l a w a n 2009

While surfing the net, I chanced upon Cebu Pacific’s seat sale last June. I immediately informed my girlfriend about it and asked if she wanted to go somewhere we haven’t been to. She’s up for it so we invited her block mates since they’re the ones who are also willing to go.

Destination: Puerto Princesa, Palawan

Here are some of the photos:

Photo Trip

I’ve been busy for the past two weeks, not with work, but with photography. I’m glad I’ve had several photo opportunities already even though I’m still relatively new to this hobby. I like this better than my office work because I’m able to deal with different subjects all the time. When shooting people, I chat with them, be they models posing for a fashion shoot or beggars asking for alms on the street. I find other people's lives very interesting. My office work is close to clerical in the sense that I’m always dealing with numbers (the numbers just differ from time to time) and the same processes again and again. They are numbers, unlike people who are able to talk to you. Numbers fail to amuse me unless it’s the actual money I’m dealing with. Haha! Anyway, let me share with you the activities I’ve done lately. Photowalk (31 August 2009) Route: Quiapo Church - Sta. Cruz - Binondo - Fort Santiago - Intramuros - Malate - Baywalk

A very awesome tricycle

Funshoot (05 September 2009) Model: Cel I also have a scheduled Photo Workshop in Batangas on 20 September 2009. I get to shoot beautiful landscapes, farm animals, etc. But the best part is...it's all for FREE! My friend just sent me the link in facebook. I read the details and it seems true. Haha! Of course I doubted it at first since there are almost no free anything today. I wasn't able to ask why it's for free. Maybe I'll SMS the organizer tomorrow. That's all for now.
