"Rain or Shine" sir says…  We had to take pictures despite the weather’s tantrums.  And the worst, I have never been an expert to the SLR camera.  I am therefore, a frusrated Photo JOurnalist who tries, somehow tries, to take brilliant shots that may survive Sir Bien’s terrifying verdicts. 

    It could have been better to have stable aperture during one photo session, like the Sunday morning shooting (part 1) we had.  But the changes of lighting due to the weather’s ficklish behaviour gave me a hard time adjusting to the lighting.  I had to learn the twists and turns of a real photographer.  Sad to say, I was invain! 

    I stil have to spend a large amount for the photo development.  And among those shots, Im definitely unsure that  atleast three goes perfect. Although Sir BIen has a really kind heart ( having lent me his camera)  the fact that he is one famous Cebuano Photographer, makes him intimidating. 

    But, really, I have learned a lot…  and  I found sidewalk vendors pretty amusing when they pose for a human interest picture.  A lot of "manongs" would say "Hala bay, ma-artista na ta ani"… and I would feel this very deep pinch in my heart, like a lover would say "Youre beautiful"…heheh…  excuse me for being emotional at times.=)

    I love Photography!  It has taken a lot of my budget, it has left my Mom complaing on such major consumption of allowance, it has left me looking for a camera, it has left me bemused on F-16 rules, it has left me frustrated… and  despite all, it has taken me to where I really wished to belong:  to the streets…
