something old: photoblogging session 8
furniture shops at tiendesitas
i’ve always been fascinated with black & white and sepia photos. i have yet to learn photoshop too, so forgive the amateur photo editing attempt 
i just couldn’t resist taking a photo of these antique furniture shops over at tiendesitas because the lighting was good; it was midday. it kind of reminds me of my lola’s house in bulacan and old houses there that we used to pass by when i was a kid.

what are you thinking boy?
this is a photo of me about 5 or 6 halloweens ago. my cousins and i were goofing around with this weird mr. bean mask. i don’t know, but i just can’t seem to delete this picture from my hard drive no matter how horrible i look here. hehe.
i also like taking photos of people. these 2 are plates i did for my photography class way back in college. it’s not digital (i was using our very old Nikon Minolta SLR whose light meter was broken, and which still functions well until now) so i just took a photo of the photo with a pda camera.
and this,
is a photo i took of my friend at the Baclayon church in Bohol. photo editing care of her. hay i wish i had a good digital SLR.

vannie - salamat din
frustrated ako diyan sa field na yan eh. wish ko maging writer or photographer ng National Geographic Society. haha.
ate pao - salamat din ha. the church is just waiting to be photographed. hehe. oo nga no, tabingi yung picture. ang hirap din pala kumuha ng ganitong mga pics. at yung sa tiendesitas, nobody was looking naman dahil it was noon on a weekday so wala din mashadong tao
