EAST/WEST

East, west. Cool, warm. Light, dark. Carl, Carlo.

THE GRUDGE

Here are two pictures of Carlo trying his best to exhibit his inner Sadako.

These were shot with the help of my brand new Nikon flash SB-800. Up to now, I still have no idea how to use it, but out of sheer excitement, I decided to take it out of the box, not look at the manual, and just start shooting.

I also added some grain to give the images an extra kick.

COOL WATER 2

Here's the last of the Villa Escudero pictures. I escpecially like the last one because the water looks amazing there. It's really cool. (Sorry for the ditsy description.)

SEXY

As all of you know by now, I went to Villa Escudero recently. There, guests are transported via carabao-powered vehicles. Each animal has a moniker and I was able to take photos of the one they call Sexy.

COOL WATER

Welcome to Regal Shocker.

I'm so thrilled to finally be sharing some brand new pics with all of you.

I'd just like to say that I especially like this set for three reasons: One, I was able to play with water using long exposures, which I've been longing to do since Pancho Escaler showed a sample in my basic photography class. Two, I was able to have fun in what I expected to be a really dull Villa Escudero visit. Three, the pictures came out brilliantly.

Enjoy!
