HBD and DVO-GES

Fact: I am a scorpio.
Fact: I am born on the same date that Ms. Vilma Santos - Recto was born
Fact: I used to tell some of my friends that I think I was meant to become a celebrity one day because I share the same birthday as the Philippines' Star for all Seasons.

 Anyways, this year was a bit more special for me as I celebrated my birthday - rather a bit lavishly though not everyone was present - with the family.

 First stop. Thanksgiving. I insisted that we drop by a chapel in tagaytay and, since I was the one behind the wheel, we did.



And then, 
Second Stop. Food trip. we went to Nuvali for a simple, hassle-free feast.




After the meal, we decided to go around and see what new things where to see. We hopped on the electric shuttle-thing(I forgot the correct term, haha).

I think one of the best things that happened to me last November was that I was able to travel and visit Davao City and General Santos. It was on official business so I didn't really have much time to go around but I was able to have a few snapshots. 

 somewhere between Davao and Gensan.
 Saw this at the SM Gensan activity area. 

Capped my first night at Gensan with this:

The people are pleasant. The food was simple yet sumptuous.

I processed them and here they are...

Annie In Focus

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!

Throwback: of Sun and Sand

I though I had published these photos before but I found out I didn't. These were part of the first photos I took with my Nikon D3000. I've had it for a very long time now and I am very happy using it. But the recent problems I see in the LCD are suggesting that I should save up for a new one - and hopefully buy a new one soon. Anyways, here are photos of Myk and Jas. Colleagues of mine back when I was with DTI-CITEM.
