Picture Perfect in Pink

Pretty Pink Stuffs from teammanilalifestyle (For Sale: Phone Pouch, Tote Bag, Lomography Diana Mini, Messenger Bag, Expandable Clutch, Leather Camera Bag, Flat Pouch, Canvas Camera Strap)
Just sharing a photo of me with a Giant Pink SLR Mock-up at Duty Free
I'm such a sucker for pink gadgets! Obviously, my favorite color is pink, since birth (I think) I took up Fine Arts in college, which included Photography as part of our curriculum that is why it was a necessity for me to own a DSLR. Sadly, I don't bring it with me as much, considering it's bulky (although not as huge as pictured) :))
Needless to say, that this Diana Mini from Team Manila is my best bet, it costs about PhP 3,450 (I guess it's not bad, considering DSLRs cost 10x more) Plus there is lesser need to post-process images. I've also been advised by several photography enthusiasts to go ahead and try Lomo Photography.
As Wikipedia explains, Lomography emphasizes casual, snapshot photography. Characteristics such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure, blurring, "happy accidents," and alternative film processing are often considered part of the "Lomographic Technique." Lomographers' statement of life being unpredictable curious adventure of "having fun while taking good pictures" :D

Save Baguio Pine Trees

I have been to Baguio City, twice in my life. The first trip was ten years ago when I was 12. And just recently, last February for the Panagbenga Festival. And because of its cold weather and abundance of strawberries, peanut brittle and choco flakes, not to mention wearing 'Winter Wardrobe' (knitted sweaters, berets, etc.) and most importantly, the picturesque mountain views with towering pine trees, I have come to love the place. So it is only right that I dedicate an artwork for the City of Pines, the summer capital of the Philippines. I may not be an environmentalist holding a picket along with the locals, but this I guess is the best I can do as an artist - to inspire people that the beautiful riches of our country is in our natural resources, we must take good care of it, as stewards of God's creation. I thank you. :)

The Gap

Ira Glass on Storytelling from David Shiyang Liu on Vimeo . "All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap.  It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions." -Ira Glass What drove me to post this inspiring video is the fact that one work of mine has been finally put up in EDSA. It's like a milestone to be celebrated, but it falls under the kind of work that you're not really very proud to show... not because it's that bad, it's just trying to be good. I am not going to name-drop that certain brand, and I have to say that the artist does not always have the call on how can it be done solely, there are a lot more people involved in the creative process.  This is just the beginning and so I hope and pray that in the near future, I'll get past the stage where I just work for the sake of getting the job done but because it was...
