and the stars went out






The Metro Manila Film Festival Parade last Sunday brought everyone out on the streets of Quezon City, Manila and Pasay.
It was a festive mood for the people to see all these movie stars encouraging everyone to watch their respective movies.
Cellphones and digital cameras were pulled out and aimed at the floats.
Katrina Halili still never ceases to amaze the crowd with her beauty. Her calendar was a favorite giveaway item.
Angel Locsin was a crowd-getter as she shook hands with almost everyone. There were three bodyguards forced to restrain the maddening crowd.
This show of support by the people hopefully translates to a good box office return for every film.

2006 is saying goodbye with fire






Fire greeted this supermarket near my place of residence.


My brother awoke me of the incident happening as he was arriving home from a late night with friends.


I had just been in the establishment the day before looking for a good can opener.


Now the place has been gutted.

It is now a statistic to the many blaze happening the past few days.

fast and furious





last october, i took my free sunday to shoot a basketball game.

(my sunday is usually reserved for going to the province and looking after the family business.)


it's been a while since i shot a basketball game. it was in high school when i last shot a basketball game. but the last time i shot a sporting event was at the SEA Games.


the game was at the collegiate champions league tournament. UE was facing San Beda. it was a close game. San Beda playing its half-court offense & defense well in the first hald. UE then turned up its running game and pressure defense to chalk up the win.

take a tea


A camera trick I was trying out while waiting to start my shoot in the lobby of a hotel.

dark sunset

I was driving to an occasion when I got stopped in front of the traffic intersection.

The sun was really setting fast.

I shot four frames.

The last one gave me this one.
