Thursday, April 21, 2005. Treasure Hunting in Silliman. One of my favorite schools is Silliman University. Somewhere within this 52-hectare campus are rare treasures not found just anywhere in the country. I had the opportunity to explore the far ends of the campus one day, and here is what I discovered. Well I saw the skull but I haven't seen any ghosts. This is one of the rare finds in Silliman University - a copy of one of Dr. Jose Rizal's books in his own handwriting! You can also see the editing mar...

Sunday, March 16, 2008. My first digital SLR. I finally got myself to take up basic photography. My friend Christian sold me his old digital SLR for only P5,000 - provided that I cover his workshop fee in our basic photography course, which only costs P3,000 for five weekly sessions. It was a good enough deal. So I got my first digital SLR - an Olympus E10 - and enrolled both of us at Photoworld Manila's Basic Photography Workshop. To pose for us. Panning the camera to capture a fast-moving object. (...

Saturday, May 07, 2005. Catching Clark on Camera. Just arrived from an office outing at Clarkfield Pampanga. There was no event there that day, so I just roamed around, with digicam in hand, and took memorabilias of the place. Here are some of my favorite photos. Here are my two brothers, Rick and Ray, walking around the Mimosa compound in the afternoon sun. A night shot of our cook out at the backyard. We grilled fish and liempo (which explains the smoke in the picture) and paired it with green mang...

Saturday, May 27, 2006. The sunrise in davao. I watched it rising above the plain during my early morning devotion. The view outside our room window. I took this after my early morning devotion outside. The building in the picture is where we held our workshop on Hebrew narratives. Talented kids on the block: Reev (the grown-up kid) with the blooming singer Joanna and the promising sculptor Uryan. If not for Migs' cap, this would have been a perfect Harana setting in the olden days of Filipino culture.

Monday, May 23, 2005. During our free hours though, I was able to take snapshots of the sceneries of the place. Here is one, during my early morning quiet time by the seashore. The sun rose above the mountains while fishermen pulled their boats to shore, finished with their early morning catch. I thank God for allowing me to witness moments like these. Here are some kids who were riding with me on the floating restaurant. Their smiles were as refreshing as the pristine waters of the Loboc River. Syvel's ...

Wednesday, July 23, 2008. Vanessa means "butterfly" in Greek. No wonder I feel I have an affinity with these creatures. They start out as green crawling caterpillars who know nothing but eat leaves and sleep. They spend their caterpillar days like bums. Crawling, eating, drinking, crawling again. Life is meaningless. It is only when the once-green caterpillar emerges from its pupa hiding place that we can see the transformation. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Beng's Shades of Grace.

Friday, April 22, 2005. Lovelier the Second Time Around. I paid a visit to the twin lakes again. The trip was not on our itinerary but the governor suggested that I take our media friends on a tour of the lakes. I was more than willing to do so. No time is wasted in seeing the twin lakes of Sibulan. This was our banca, facing towards the ridge that separated Balinsasayao from its twin, Danao. The great lake was beckoning us to come and start our morning exercise of paddling and mountain-climbing. I took ...

Saturday, May 27, 2006. Here are some of the pics I shot using the vari-angle LCD. At the start of the conference, Elmer, Alma, Reev and I spend some bonding and pic-taking time at the conference hall. On the shuttle along the trails of the Eden Nature Park, Vanity strikes again. with Ruth and Elmer. Watching peacocks and pigeons at the bird aviary of Eden Park with Blu.

A Photo Blogck: Mountaintop Memorabilia
http://aphotoblogck.blogspot.com/2008/06/mountaintop-memorabilia.html
Tuesday, June 24, 2008. No digital SLR can capture the whole beauty of it. But I did what I can, despite the limits of an old prosumer Olympus. So from the artists' abode in Tam Awan Village, to the delicate flowers of John Hay, and the gourmet coffee - the best one I have tasted so far - in Soul Cafe. I preserved the images of my rainy summer on the mountaintops. A scene from inside a nipa hut in Tam Awan Village. A bench made by the Tam Awan artists. Some of the flowers outside Igorot Lodge.

Monday, August 01, 2005. There was a time when I came across this question: "If you had the time and the money to do whatever you wanted, how would you be living your life right now? The first thing that came to mind was: "I'd be a travel writer and photojournalist. I'd travel to places, delight in the beauty of nature, enjoy the richness of the culture; then preserve the images my eyes can see in pictures, and the impressions my mind can make in words.". Now don't those photos look familiar?
