When I started in photography less than a year ago, I promised myself that I'll be learning the craft, and after almost a year I can't say that I didn't learn anything, but I hoped that I could have spend more time on it, nurture it, and been more active on it, but free time is always a question, I don't have the luxury of spending too much spare time. As much as I have wanted to practice it, shoot in every occasion, in every moment, sadly that wasn't the case. And now i embark on a new path (Graduate studies) that would further devoid me of spare time, I just wish that somewhere, somehow i could still nurture this fire in me to pursue photography, to develop my passion further.. til then I guess I'll be putting down my camera for the moment...

(The following lines are excerpt from a correspondence to a friend)

ÂI find it more fulfilling during alone times, when I am in solace, coz thereÂs no inhibitions, your just bare out there, nothing to think about, just you and your environment as your canvas. Walks that can stretch to a kilometer, worrying nothing if your pals are lagging behind or tired already, it creates an atmosphere without barriersÂ I am most happy when I capture moments, emotions of other people. I appreciate life even more, the smiles, frown, gestures that put color unto their livesÂ I always look forward to serendipity.Â

and

, had some few drinks and watched some movies, the first movie was a quirky one, entitled 200 pounds of beauty, it was funny and yes it is one of those movies that is typical with a girlsÂ slumber party, and it was Korean. I had good laughs watching the movie, that it made me watch the movie again when I got homeÂ hahaha! The second movie was a tad morbid, satirical, unexpected, confusing, and have some sexual innuendos, itÂs an Asian movie dubbed in English, couldnÂt remember the title thou,

knows the title, the movie revolved in the context of revenge through vengeance after death ÂsadakoÂ style, all the characters where in portrayal of professions in the medical industry specifically nurses and doctors, actually just the two of those. ItÂs the type of movie youÂll watch just to deviate from the mainstream, from Hollywood or from what not movies out there.
Anyway, while at

place, we decided to take some portrait shots in low light, without a tripod, and without a speedlight, and as IÂve expected most of the shots if not all where a disaster, at least for my point of view, it was a learning experience. Although the misfortune happened, I still sport a enthusiastic spirit, everyday is a chance to capture moments, every mistake is a learning experience and most important of all, its plain fun exploring this new found hobby.

The Location was at Fort Santiago located at the heart of Intramuros Manila, one of the oldest fortifications, it has been built, repaired and destroyed a couple of times. In 1950 it was declared as Shrine of Freedom. This was my first attempt to photography, or anything related to it, all I have is my drive to try this newfound interest and my trusty film camera (Nikon FM 10) (old school).

After finishing my first roll of film, went on to get it developed, I had the option of having the negative scanned or printed, I opted to have it printed in linen at first I thought to have it on matte, but alas, I said to myself why not try linen and so I did. The prints where amazing, what I meant was the prints not the shots altogether, (hahaha) thereÂs richness in the linen. Though thereÂs one big drawback when I scanned the prints you can visibly see the texture of the print in the digital image, and so a lesson learned in this experience.
