Shanghai Surprise

I remember, we went out of the Shanghai Airport

and it was too early and too dark to even see the surroundings.

After checking in and signing all the papers

for our stay at Captain's Hostel, I immediately went straight to

my room and rest.

The next morning I saw this view from

my room. Hello Shanghai!

Beijing Sunset

We were about to explore the market place in Beijing.

We just got out of the super crowded train of the city.

Seeing the sunset for the first time in Beijing is like

a breathe of fresh air, though is it just me

or am I seeing Smog?

Who's that Girl?

I'm always outdoors, travelling and mostly

my subjects are either seascape or landscape.

So when my colleagues invited me to

check out a village/"gimik" place somewhere south.

I asked one of them to model for me, since

I want to practice shooting people as subject.

Here's one that I thought the best from the set.

One Memorable Balloon

It was a Saturday morning when I found

myself driving through SCTEX heading to the

Hot Air Balloon Festival with two of my

travel addict officemates.

I was super excited for that year's festival

because of the entrance pass we have so we can

shoot inside the area where they prepare and fix the balloons.

This was also a memorable photo because it was my first

photo contest entry and it's for DPP.

I remember feeling awkward as I saw other people's entry.

But with a push from my friends I did gave 2 photos for the contest.

And then weeks passed and I almost forgot about this contest.

I received a text from DPP and Caltex saying that I was

qualified and inviting me for the awarding ceremony one

uneventful work day afternoon.

I didn't won the contest but seeing my photo alongside

the best photos of that year's festival was one hell

of an experience. Felt really good.

Let's Play Before the Light Dies

Sunset on this island never fails to amaze me.

I saw a group of kids rushing to play near

the shore before the sun completely sunset.

My 50 Php Sunset

This was one of my first photos and still considered it

a lucky shot up to now. I was just lucky

that I was on the right time and right place

when mother nature decided to

color the sky with hues of yellow and grey.

Even though the fee to enter the island is a bit expensive

for my taste, considering that we will only

stay there for a good 45 minutes, I still went

home undefeated. All thanks to my 50 Php sunset.
