Good Friday Sacrifice

Everybody is talking about sacrifices today. I don't wanna explain what i saw but i want you to look at this photo. Despite the huge crowd, scorching heat and walking disability, this Lola managed to bring her Apo in the park on a Good Friday.

Dance Like There's No One Watching

A dancer doesn't seem to care and notice that thousands of people are watching their performance during the Grand Opening Parade of Panagbenga 2012, the famous flower festival of Baguio City.

When Boredom Strikes

My sister and I were not doing anything so i decided to take photos of her. The actual shoot is actually shorter than the preparation of the lighting setup. And to top it all, she asked for a snack in exchange. I really can't decide which way to go on post-processing so i end up with two edits. (yeah, I know my blog title says one photo a day...It is one photo though, just two edits)

It is very interesting to note that when we are focused on what we are doing, as if there's no other world except our ours. This photo was taken during one of the photo walks that I attended. Camp John Hay Eco-trail is really a heaven for photographers.

my new watermark

I have been worrying about my watermark since the day i decided to concentrate on my photography. many websites offer you sample watermarks but definitely you want to create you own. This is simply because you want it to have your personal touch and that will give you joy and pride. Of course, many photo editing software can generate watermarks but believe me, you would still want something to call your own. And without further adieu, here is my new watermark.
