This was taken on the other side of the road from the Sison stopover. I remember feeling seriously groggy and just bad all over during this trip... I felt so bad that I didn't mind if the sun shone on me while I was in the window seat on the final hour to Baguio. As... Continue Reading →

Love From The Skies Over TPLEXA few minutes ago I got out of bed, did my morning tinkle, and drank 2 glasses of water.

This was shot a few hours ago over at the lonely circumferential road connecting Marcos Highway to Ciudad Grande, Bakakeng. It's the first Fuji RAW I ever edited and I used Silkypix (provided on their website) to do it. The interface leaves much to be desired, but the results are not too shabby.  "When I...

So last Sunday I took on the most speaking arrangements I had in a day. There was the discussion and introduction to Basic Photography, and then two Sermons on the title, 'Overcoming the Spirit of Poverty'. If you count the two times I was assigned to lead worship, then that all adds up to 5... Continue Reading →

Manong Kurt told me to help out in this year's Lessons and Carols by taking pictures of the event. It's during times like these when I miss focal lengths greater than 55mm.
