FUZZY KOMIKS

Cool comic wallpaper inside an Island Souvenir booth at Mactan Cebu International Airport.




These were the cover pages of old comic books for children in the Philippines. Funny Komiks had me thrown back to my childhood days instantly! When I was 6 or 7 years old, I remember tagging along with my mum at the market during weekends, and before going home she'd make sure my brothers and I have the latest issue for the week :)) Good old memories do make me feel warm and fuzzy!

CAMERA SHY

I was a little hesitant in using an Agfa Vista Plus film at this family's dinner buffet in Vikings at SM Mall of Asia. Although it's still my current favorite film, I was afraid it might saturate the photos knowing the kind of lighting the restaurant has. Surprisingly, the photos turned out fine and much in favor to my liking :)





I was fidgeting like a little girl in my seat because I've been watching people come and go, and waiting to see if there's still a window of opportunity to take some photos around, and of the food of course! I'm still learning and fighting with being conscious when taking photos because people stare, at times. I'd usually make sure I'm not bothering anybody, or no one is looking before I focus and fire away with the shutter. A different take on the adjective, camera shy, perhaps? Seriously, am I alone in this weird thing? :)





Have you sacrificed a great subject just because you were too shy to take the shot? :)

GRAY RAIN


Took the opportunity to snap shots of my brother's racing pigeons while they were out after a rain. This platform outside their birdhouse is their version of a veranda :)



The gloom mood seemed to have blended with their black and gray-colored feathers in contrast to the platform. Love the glassy effect of the water on them :)
