Life In A Snapshot

We are photography hobbyists and we find it painful on the pocket especially if it’s a quite expensive hobby. For us, we find photography addicting yet expensive especially if there’s no return of investment. Expensive for us who barely had extra money left after all the bills have been paid but for those who earns so much and don’t even know how and where to spend their riches, engaging in expensive hobby doesn’t hurt their bank accounts that much.

We’re not celebrating Christmas but since PILs do celebrate it, we bought some decors (just balls and lights) last year. This year, I will be using it again to decorate the house. I dug it in the box yesterday where Che2x kept it and will be putting it in place this afternoon after taking a nap.

Happy WS! Visit Weekend Snapshot for more entries.

Our first wedding photo opportunity was during Ace’ sister’s wedding. Actually, it’s his day with our Canon 400D. Haven’t got hold of the cam during the event…ever! Ace did not undergo any photography class and I was only sharing to him what I learned from my basic photography class and from my readings. Most of the photos turned out fine while others are out of focus. Well, he’s still learning. And it’s hard to shoot people especially if they’re mobile. Anyway, here’s our favorite photo…the couple’s first dance with the smoke effects. 

One weekend was spent in the beach….my favorite place to relax. This was taken at Canibad Beach, one of the undeveloped white sand (actually its pebbles) beaches in Island Garden City of Samal. 

Land trip to the southern part of Cebu is very eye satisfying with the old churches of almost every town at the right and the beautiful seaside scenery on the left. We intentionally positioned ourselves in the driver’s side in the bus to have a glimpse of the coastal scenes like this one. The reflection of the bus’ glass window is disturbing but I could not think of ways to avoid it aside from the circular polarizer that I have put in the lens. Whatever it looked, it is still a beautiful photo with the sweeping clouds higher in the sky and the cottony cloud formations in the distance. 

Happy Sky Watch everybody! Take a peek in here to see more sky photos.

Photography has become my passion and my favorite subjects, anything in nature. Frankly speaking, I had a hard time taking photos of people. I felt like I don’t know how to properly shoot human subjects because I am more into landscapes and nature. Hence, I am always looking forward for this day so that I can share my photos. Here’s one of the best photos I took last sunrise shoot in Sta. Ana Wharf, Davao City. I say one of the best because I have numerous BEST photos.LOL. It’s really hard to choose which photo to post. So here’s one of the photos I had printed for the mini exhibit we will be doing in a friend’s coffee house. Wanna see my other photos? Just let me know.

My sunset photo is here again for most obvious reason - I love sunsets! Here’s a warm before -the-sunset photo taken last month. It’s been quite sometime since I had a sunset shoot due to the weather and I am hoping I could catch it next week ‘coz I already miss my “me and nature” time. I wonder how my sunset shots would look using a CPL. Happy Sky Watch!

 What could I say? Nature is so wonderful and unpredictable. After weeks of overcast afternoons, yesterday (August 14) was one of the best. I peeked out of the window if thick clouds are covering the west and I am glad it was not so I grab the Canon 400D and off I went to my favorite sunset watching spot. Many times I have watched the sun going down but no two sunsets are the same even I am in the same place. I wouldn’t get tired of going in the same place over and over again to watch the sun go down. Happy Friday! More of Sky Watchers here. More of sunset photos in my flickr.
