Bright eyes...

Black and white or monochrome most of the time really looks great than colored! Thats the case on this one. Originally it's in color but not that striking when i first look at it on my computer. but when i converted it on monochrome the eyes become more emphasized and makes this look strong image. Use my softbox to soften the light that makes it beautifull! Nikkor lens 1/60's F5.6 at 105mm ISO200.

Think

This picture is all about being relaxed. To make it look very natural looking i just shoot continously so that to capture the natural body and facial movement. Then select the best shot from the series. its all about patience... you are very lucky if you can nail a great shot in just one click! but i dont think thats the case all the time. Converted this one to monochrome in PS used a softbox place on camera right. Nikkor lens at 65mm 1/60's F5.6 ISO200.

Confident

Ive shot this a later this day using my softbox place camera right. The soft shadows that softbox produce are really lovely and beautiful. This is one of the many shots i made and i may say one of the best (53 shots all just took 3 copies as the best! ) Nikkor lens at 75mm F5.6 1/60's ISO200.

Nature's Beauty

I've always wanted to shoot a waterfall. I got a chance today as i was on my way to work in baguio. On the way up in Baguio i saw this waterfall on a cliff. Got to stop to take this one. The softness of the water makes the whole image alive! nikkor lens at 200mm 1sec, F32 ISO200

Soft Beauty

I love shooting portrait with a shallow depth of field. (don't have the high apperture lens yet c",)) . Images of people looks better when they look natural. Don't say the dreaded "smile" before taking the shot. Me i just tell them to be ready and thats it.. they wont even notice that i have taken their picture already.. thats more natural look hey? Nikkor Lens at 200mm 1/180's F5.6 ISO 200.

Sunset at work

This is one of my favorite shot. We were in vacation and had been drinking for the past 3 hours and i was always looking back for the sunset to give me a good background to shoot with the guys. Got lucky and took the guys to some photo shoot. This only happens within 5 minutes cause the sun really sets so fast. Let my cousin hold the off camera flash for me up high from camera right to create this beautiful spotlight and directional lighting. Taken at 18mm 1/20's Nikkor lens handheld.

Reflection

Just another macro shot which i love. One thing that is great about droplet macro shots is the reflection it creates from the background which really works well and its like a picture in a picture. Taken with extension tubes using nikkor lens 28 200mm handheld.

Locked

This Macro image shot i took using extension tubes with nikkor lens at 1/160s, macro shots are tough to shoot but once you've captured one its surely amazing to see small world in a big picture!
