EDSA to Commonwealth

I borrowed my brother's Nikon D40 a few days ago to cover the commemoration of the EDSA People Power uprising at the EDSA Shrine. Unfortunately, I was late so I wasn't able to get some shots during the activity. I roamed a bit around the footbridge along the shrine and saw a blind man singing and playing a guitar asking for donations.

Yesterday, at the shoot for Tudla Production's short film at Commonwealth High School, a boy was enviously  looking at the student-actors who were having fun inside the room.

Manila: Through the eyes of its lost daughter

Its been a while since I've been to Manila for more than a month without any "official business" to attend to and I seldom have the chance to roam around the capital of the Philippines with a camera on hand, much more a DSLR.


Last week, me and a friend was supposed to go to the National Library to do some research but due to some reasons, I wasn't able to go in. Luckily, we just came from an activity we covered so we have a camera with us. So instead of sulking inside the library lobby, I decided to go out and shoot. And so, I ended up in Rizal Park.


This is my first time to shoot the streets using a DSLR, a Nikon D40. The camera is not mine, quite old and battered and I'm still getting used to using DSLRs which is way different than point and shoot digital cameras I've been using in the past.


Here are some of the photos I took in Rizal Park.
