Blog EntryThe Masterpiece III - "SELF PORTRAIT"Jun 22, '08 2:05 AM
for everyone

What do you do when the power is out? You pick up a camera and take a photo of yourself!

Thanks to Aquilles Kalixto P. Maraan from the Middle East for sending me this  wonderful gift.

I thought that it was time to change my avatar.  I had my tripod, found good available light inspite of the weather, and used this scarf that was given to me as gift. It's not a keffiyeh, by the way. It just looks like one. Please don't see this self-portrait as a political protest.

 

I have said many times before, The Afghan Girl serves as my inspiration. With this, I also tried to bring out the Mona Lisa feel. I cannot explain it but this is what came out of my impromptu shoot.

MODEL: PARC

Took me a couple of shots because a self-portrait with a tripod is harder to do, especially if you're alone in doing it.

Presenting my third masterpiece in this series: my self-portrait.

Blog EntryThe Masterpiece II - "THE EXILE"Jun 4, '08 2:44 AM
for everyone
I just have to do it again but this time I was given a choice to pick among his self-portrait and bring him to my world.

Amazingly, my creative juice is flowing at the moment. So bear with me if you're seeing a lot of these.

Photos are not taken by me but I was asked by the photographer, Edwin Loyola, to create a story out of it.


PANORAMATIC 

My exhibit opening last Monday was a success (click here). Thanks to everyone who have shown me their support, who've helped me and who've attended the opening. I won't be able to name you one by one but please do know that I am really very grateful for this.

I am at this stage where I think I've done enough for my love for this hobby. I am hoping to find the time to relax for once, until the next challenges come. In looking for new inspirations, I've come across an artwork similar to this photo I have here and thought to try and do the same for myself.

It's not an original idea (credit should go to Leos Pail) but it's a wonderful concept, isn't it?

This goes to all my friends who've always been there for support.

Lastly, I heard this phrase early this evening while having the TV on in the background:

"Photography is a medium that is humanistic and not mechanistic"

I think I've found my mantra.

Thanks again for all the support.
