Disturbing the Still

Never, ever, disturb someone who's reading the morning paper

Seriously, don't you find it annoying if someone disturbs you while you're in your own world, reading the morning paper? You've got your pantulog on and your drinking your coffee while reading the folded morning paper in one hand then suddenly someone asks you to do something that takes away your attention from what's going on in the universe. So really, don't disturb anyone when they're practicing the solemn ritual of reading the news in the morning.

This photo was taken around December of 2008 with the standard Nikon 18-55 kit lens. Just like my previous post about the Baywalk, I skipped work that day and bought my SLR. How incredibly lazy of me.

A Long Way To There

The Walk of Solitude

Solitude is never fun, especially when you're walking the length of the Baywalk in Roxas Boulevard. The same goes for everything you do in this life. Remember that doing something as mundane as walking is definitely better with someone.

This was taken last December 2008 when I suddenly had the urge to skip work.Bought my Nikon and just took pictures with the heat of sun as my only companion.

A Wheel OF Awesomeness

"The world will keep on spinning no matter what. What you should be afraid of is when it stops."

Carousels are mean to be fun. They're made for people to get on them and see the world in a different view and in all its glory. But seeing it from way below is another story.

Snapped this photo way back last December 2008 at the Star City in Manila with my Nikon D40x. Edited the contrast, tweaked the clarity a little bit and sharpened little details out with the help of Adobe Photoshop Light Room 2.

Tomorrow Is On Its Way

 

"There will always be a tomorrow"

I snapped this picture of the sunrise at some beach in Batangas last May 2008. And as I look back at it, I'm realizing that no matter how bad yesterday was or how crappy your day was today, there'll always be a new one waiting for you tomorrow. 

Down The Hall

 

"It all begins with one small step"

This hallway has been a silent witness over the years at the second floor of some building inside the Philippine Normal University in Manila. Plus, this hallway also serves as a bridge between a student and his/her dream of becoming an educator.

But just like any other dream, it all depends if you're brave enough to take that one small step.

The Greatest View Can Be Seen In Tagaytay

"Lahat ng natatanaw mo ay sa'yo na Bebe"

If only life was this simple and captivating huh?

But we all know it isn't that easy. That's the case with these two lovebirds who just broke up recently. Too bad though. They were a great couple who overcame a lot of hurdles in their two years together. Too bad they had to go the path of cheesy Filipino loveteams who faded into obscurity.

But whatever happens, life is a circle. And we, your closest amigos, all hope that you may find yourselves in each other' s arms again.

The Boy Band Craze Is Not Yet Over

From left to right: Echo, Rion, ER and Eric

So there we were, hanging out at some part of the CCP Complex near the floating restaurant. Echo, Rion, ER , Eric and I just ate our lunch before deciding to head back their org's photo shoot. And then all of a freakin' sudden, these guys unleashed their inner camwhores for me to capture. They were posing here, there and back there again just like any kid who sees a camera for the first time.

I don't remember who thought of posing like a boy band in this picture but the result could put any Backstreet Boy album cover to shame. Click the photo to see the whole resolution. For the complete album of this tiring day, just make your index finger muscles work and click here.
