Talk about budget… grrrr

Transportshow 2007

Posted by tekgik under Sports, kaBlog

This is the time of the year for events like this, last month was the Motor Show and then a numerous races at Batangas and Subic race tracks. I really didnt plan going to the transportshow but i was invited to go to an Exhibit of a friend Ross Capili famous Painter+Photographer+Digital Artist. And coincidentally there are some thought in my mind going there to shoot for something new inside the show. Since i start started photography, i always go to this kind of show but eventually after seeing/shooting same kind of subjects year after year i was tired and decided “Its enough” and after several years.. here i go again..

Childhood

Posted by tekgik under People, kaBlog

Whenever Im free I make it to a point that i give quality time to my family specailly to my son Raffy. Last week we visited SM MOA we just thought of going there because of the scorching heat. Raffy loves to ride on those P60 pesos carousel ride inside SM’s with( yes with ’s) because he rides a lot wheneve he sees one. I called my brother to accompany Raffy inside the carousel because I brought my camera to take some precious snaps of him. After some window shopping of my wife, mother & sis-in-law we look for another place that will surely enjoys Raffy’s wild & crazy imagination (mana kay dada). And then we saw Kids Republic on the 2nd level of SM MOA, nice place but IMHO Active Fun at Hobbies of Asia is far better .

Childhood is very important, we want to give our son the best attention he should have and I know during those times me and my wife will cherish it forever.

 

9th Tour of the Fireflies

Posted by tekgik under Sports, Tips & Tricks, Travel, kaBlog

Did you know that because of pollution the fireflies had fled away from the city? I was there at the tour of the fireflies last sunday to shoot the 4000+ bikers to make a stand to stop pollution. I wouldnt think that it can be stopped but at least it can be lessen. We need Gas, Oil and stuff to run electricity, our cars and other necessary needs to have a modern life. Hmmm but yeah its a good move for clean air act in fact im planning to join them next year. I had so much fun shooting last sunday, i saw and met several PiphoLs there.

This is the first time ive seen bikers by this large numbers. But what caught my attention was this group of “lowrider bikers” yes a lowrider bike that looooksssss so cool! Way cool!

Another thing that gave my photographic libido a yum yum was my favorite slow synchro techniques… hahah (see below ).  I shot at full wide zoom on my EOS 5d and switch my 550ex to slow synchro.. I played around 1/25s. Was all shot at Ayala Avenue.

 

Well i hope that me and my son can join them next year…

Week after Holy Week

Posted by tekgik under Travel, kaBlog

What did you do during holy week? did you go to your favorite beach or did you do some enlightenment to yourself? Me I just did our yearly “panata”, Bisita Iglesia, Karo at Baliwag and prayed for forgiveness. We did our Bisita Iglesia in Bulacan, we started here in Valenzuela and we end it at Bustos, Bulacan. Theres always a photo opportunity for me or should I say im doing my own “Photo Op” ok to say it more clearly, I meant I plan ahead and squeeze it to whatever agenda I do.What im trying to say?… I know that our last stop is at Bustos, Bulacan my wife’s family’s rest house is here, my in-laws was there to spend the Holy Weekend. After the 14th station at Bustos I told my companions that i will drove by to Bustos Dam, fortunately my wife, mother & lola together with my makulit son wanted to come along and see how the dam & riceland at Bustos looks now.I wanted to catch the sunset at the dam, but sadly the sun went down on the far west and leaving me no hues of golden hour.So what did i do? I shot several slow shutter “unreal” images at the dam and capture all the churches and all the greeneris i can record thru my camera. (see below)So again? how did you spend your holy week? Here are what I did from my Holy Thursday
