here are some photos from my so-called "archives". I still have others too that I think I can and will post but I still have to sort them out. For the meantime, here are some of them:
Annie, my impromptu tour guide of Dubai is a friendly and very hospitable lady from Davao City, Philippines. Her slim figure and effortless projection in front of the camera makes her versatile enough to also be my model for some of the shots that came to mind during the tour. Though she may not really be a model, I believe that she is photogenic and can hold her own in front of any lens. Simplicity helps her adapt to the poses I ask her to do - and she is patient enough to cooperate the whims needed for the shots. As a final note, I posted this a simple token of appreciation for being good company to me, and bringing me to all the sights I posted about in my Dubai entry. This is also as an addition to my growing online portfolio. Shukran Annie!
This has been a long overdue post. The past few weeks have been nothing short of busy and I end up opting to just rest during the weekends and go offline as much as I can. Anyway, here is my latest entry about my sudden trip to Davao. I had originally planned to go to Davao later during this year for work and vacation. My boss and I had discussed it around June and a few days after we came to know of the company outing and team building planned by our Davao office. Of course I was interested to go but I was unsure if it was going to be considered. Then, to my pleasant surprise, my manager booked me for a round trip flight. However, I had a fail moment - i forgot to recharge my Nikon's battery. I had to go around conserving it and saving its energy. I was not able to take shots during the actual team-building session. In return I tried to select the shots I would take. Good thing full manual mode extends the battery life of the camera. A short prayer before...
disclaimer: I am not in any way commissioned to promote the place that I will share below, I just felt like posting it. A few days back, my family and I went around Cavite for the sheer pleasure of going out(nah-we actually went to Laguna before we decided to change our itinerary a bit.) After shopping for a few grocery items, I insisted we drop by this relatively new cafe-slash-pizza-place along Aguinaldo Highway in Silang. If you're familiar with the route then you would readily see this place beside the Rogate Press. I really wanted to try out their pizza for quite some time. Basically, its an Italian style pizza with dough made right before you (well not exactly from the start of the making of it but the mashing thing they do before making it into a circle is done when you order) cooked in an brick oven. We craved for the taste and ended up ordering twice. If you're one of those who'd enjoy thin crust pizza eaten by hand - yes, they don...
