Glitter In Their Eyes 2008-04-06 19:27:00 I love the glitters on the body of the Hugyawan Dancer so I made it the subject for this picture. That glitters also remind me of the song Glitter In Their Eyes sung by Patti Smith. I am sharing with you the lyrics of Glitter In Their EyesArtist: Patti Smith Album: Gung Ho Glitter In Their Eyes LyricsIt's been a while since I've seen your faceIt's been a while since I've walked this placeI see the monkeys riding on their bikesRacing through the impossible nightYou say you're feeling like a new treeMan they'll cut you from limb to limbPick your pocket with such delightShake it to the rightShake it in the lightOh can't you see the glitterThe glitter in their eyesOh can't you see the glitterThe glitter in their eyesGenius stalking in new shoesHave you got WTO bluesDust of diamondsMaking you s
Dream Car 2008-04-06 10:43:00 What's your dream car? Without any hesitation, if given the opportunity to own a car I will go for Volkswagen Beetle. It is my dream to own this car. Every time I see this car passing in the street, there is always a desire in my heart, how I wish I am the one driving that Volkswagen Beetle.I took the opportunity of taking a photograph of my dream car, Volkswagen Beetle, while its owner parked it in one of the streets of Dumaguete City. After taking a snapshot I said to myself maybe in the near future, I will be driving my own Volkswagen Beetle. But first thing first, I must learn how to drive a four-wheel!

Summer Escapade 2008-04-06 08:40:00 This summer I have lot of things in mind. One of them is riding in a banca. I wanted to ride in a banca, however, I don't have the leisure of time since I am doing other important stuffs. Thanks God, during our 3rd Yearbook Camp last April 2-4, 2008, though I was not able to ride in a banca, but I was able to take a picture of it. I hope you like this one. This was taken at the beach of Sibulan, Negros Oriental.

The Lost Ring 2008-04-05 20:26:00 I had a ring. It doesn't fit much on my finger,But still I continue wearing it.Until one day, the ring was lost.I regret for taking it for granted.I could have kept it,Or resize it to fit my finger.It's a gift given to me,as precious as the one who gave it to me.I search for it.Thanks God I found it.Now I will take good care of it,So that it won't be the lost ring again.
Lonesome Voyage 2008-04-05 07:58:00 In life there is always a point that we will be traveling alone, a lonesome journey. Let us not be afraid for life is like this. It is just part of the many challenges we will be facing. Don't lose hope, because in every journey we are taking there is Him who guides us always.

Simple Joy 2008-04-04 21:32:00 We don't necessarily need to be the riches man in this world to be happy. We can always find happiness on simple things. Simple
things bring simple joy- pure and deep happiness. This picture portraits simple joy, happiness which is pure and deep. They are enjoying the moment without any hesitation. An affinity with nature coupled with friendship creates simple joy!
Picking Up the Pieces of My Life 2008-04-04 20:24:00 Problems are inevitable. Across your journey you would always meet them. Let our dreams and goals in life be ruined by these problems. Instead, let us make these problems our stepping stones to become a stronger person. That in every sunrise we would be able to say to ourselves, "I am picking up the pieces of my life, I am whole again and much stronger, I am ready to face the world!".

Friends 2008-04-04 19:00:00 Friendship is one of the most wonderful things on earth. Friends are the priceless treasures we have. Real friends never leave each other even if one of them is taking on the wrong path. A good friend will try to correct the other in a way that it does not hurt the ego of the other friend. Friends don't mind when mistakes are pointed out; rather they try to accept it and change themselves for the better. True friends are those who inspire others to become better. True friends are rare to find, thus, make every day of your friendship extra ordinary. The photograph includes some of my friends whom I consider true friend.

Tribute 2008-04-04 18:58:00 In my life there are people whom I am very thankful with. They are there through my ups and downs. They are there through thick and thin. They are the one who always encourage me when I lost hope. They always believe that I can always make it. And when I fall, they are there to support me. My life becomes easier and happier because of them. They are my inspiration. This photograph is dedicated as a tribute to these people, my parents.Above all, I acknowledge that without God I am nothing. All my talents and skills are given by Him. He always deserves it from everyone of us, everyday let us give Him a tribute.
Against All Odds: I Remain Standing 2008-03-31 21:40:00 My life, especially the fast years, is not as smooth as sailing in a calm sea. I had been into journeys and adventures where there are big waves along the way. I must learn how to ride with these waves for me to reach my destination. Also, strong winds are making it difficult for me to reach my destination. They are leading me to detours I never expected. However, I may not have expected them but I am prepared. I know that in a journey called life there are always detours. But whom shall I fear when I know that God is my anchor? He is always been the captain of my life. He let me experienced the detours for me to learn and become stronger. He is always there guiding and watching me that at the end of the day, as sunset seizes, against all odds I remain standing.

Lenten Season: A Time for Reflection 2008-03-20 22:40:00 Have you found an answer to the question of what is your purpose in life? This time, the lenten season, is a great time to reflect and think on these things very carefully. Lenten season has traditionally been marked by penitential prayer and fasting. Some churches would still observe a rigid schedule of fasting on certain days during Lenten Season
, especially the giving up of meat, alcohol, sweets, and other types of food. On the other hand, others may not put as great an emphasis on fasting, but they focus on charitable deeds, like helping those in physical need with food and clothing. Christian churches that observe Lenten Season at all focus on it as a time of prayer, especially penance, repenting for failures and sin as a way to focus on the need for God’s grace. This has been prepa
Speech Choir 2008-03-20 10:10:00 One of the subjects in almost all courses in the college is literature. Literature is referred to us the mirror of life. It is a reflection of the real life - the culture, tradition and all most all aspect of life. Literature is also considered an art showcasing the real life. One way of showcasing the situation of real life is through dramatic speech choir. The pictures above was take during the Inter-class SpeechChoir
Competition of students taking up literature classes. I selected only few pictures, which are of my choice.
Mr. & Ms. NORSU 2008 2008-03-19 10:54:00 A pageant that is distinct and incomparable; a rare showcase of wit, beauty, poise and grace of both men and women. The pageant not only aims to choose the exceptional man and woman to embody the NORSUnian ideals, but it as well develops personality and builds self-confidence in each candidate. They come out of the training and they show more disciplined and refined. I took a lot of pictures during the Mr. & Ms. NORSU 2008, an opening salvo of the Founders Day celebration of Negros Oriental State University. For more information about the pageant you can visit the Pageant's Official Website.

Even these little flowers amaze me so I took I picture of them. They really stand-out from the rest of the Plant Kingdom. They are not just little flowers but Amazing
Little Flowers.

Drum Beats 2008-03-18 06:07:00 I love this picture so much. I think I got the right angle when I took this picture. I could feel the drama because of the natural light effects. This was taken during the Hugyawan 2007, one of the highlight during the founders day celebration of Negros Oriental State University. When you're just around during the celebration you could really hear the intense drum beats of the drummer.

Green Green Grass of Hopes 2008-03-17 07:48:00 Nature is always connected with people. That is a fact. We are living with nature. Our environment comprises of nature. What ever happen to the environment, people are affected. However, we failed to realize that what had happened to the environment, i mean its destruction, was also made by us. Every time i see green green grasses, I see hope. I see hope for the restoration of our nature that someday the environment we are living with will be like those times that butterflies freely flying, bees are transferring from one flower to the other, we can smell the fresh air, a time where nature is at its best. Definitely, these are the reasons why I took this picture and titled it with Green
Green Grass of Hopes.

Seminar-Workshop on Basic of Digital Photography 2008-03-16 17:39:00 My interest on photography started to really grow when we had our Seminar
-Workshop
on Basic
of Digital
Photography. It was held somewhere in the month of July, 2007. Not only that I had the grasped on the Basic of Digital Photography but I was inspired and motivated to take pictures. I had learned in the Seminar-Workshop that Photography is an Art. Photography isn't just about taking pictures, it isn't just about clicking a button of the camera but it's a mere art that a lot of things should be considered. I learned the three most basic elements to be considered when taking pictures, these are: Background, Foreground and Subject. Before the Seminar-Workshop on Photography, I don't care about background or foreground, for as long as I have a subject, it's fine already but things have change
World of Fantasies 2008-04-09 19:53:00 Sometimes we live in the world of fantasies. We imagine things that's not really there. Our imagination bring as to another dimension - to the world of fantasies. The photo above was brought by a creative mind and imagination. Having fantasies that we have extra-ordinary powers we played with the light while taking picture to feed that fantasy. This is posted without any retouch of any photo editing software. How I is wish fantasies will become a reality, but reality strikes (with a big sigh), I know they will remain fantasies. Still I continue to live sometimes in the world of fantasies, where there my dreams and goals are easily achieved, where there I can be easily transformed to whatever I want to become!

Holes: DoYou Fit? 2008-04-09 12:50:00 Everyone of us has his own place, has his own mission here in the world? The picture above contains lot of holes. I see holes as opportunities in life. No matter how we try and try, if it's not intended for us then it would not be for us. No matter how you fit yourself to this opportunity if it was not planned to be for you then it will not be yours. Just like the holes above, if you try to put something on that hole that is to small or that is too big, no matter how much effort you will be exerting still it won't fit because there is one intended to fit that hole, its perfect match. Sometimes, if you force something to put on that hole, you end up losing them for they might give up and be broken.I believe that each of us has his own opportunity. An opportunity that is planned, just like Read more:Holes
Beauty in Darkness 2008-04-09 08:25:00 Problems are inevitable and that is for a fact. When we are experiencing problem in our lives we referred it as the dark sad of our life or simply it's darkness. Darkness
is always to being dull, ugly or to any words with negative connotation. Sometimes we failed to realize that there is always beauty in darkness. If we are in the dark we learn to value the light so much. Do you think we would be able to do that if we have not experienced darkness? I think not. Just like problems, we would only know our strength and weaknesses if we were able to encounter them. We become a stronger person after passing through this darkness in our lives. In the picture above do you think it would be that beautiful if there was too much light? If there was no darkness? I hope you get the deeper meaning of t Read more:Beauty
Flower Girls 2008-04-09 07:22:00 I just can't think of any title, my mind is still busy thinking of other stuffs.I have been busy thinking about where to get enough capital for our planned Photography Studio. This would be a realization of a long time dream. I have been dreaming of this since then.It would be a big event in our lives next month! We are hoping we could open this May 8, 2008 or May 18, 2008. We choose that date because we believe that 8 is a lucky number. What's wrong with trying anyway? Hmmmn... I just hope we would be lucky enough to raise enough capital for that business on time. I guess, I have to recall everyone whom I can borrow some money. Anyway, I guess I have been talking too much. I just posted the title Flower Girls
since they are all girls wearing a flower headdress. Since flowers also represe
Beautiful Welcome 2008-04-08 21:53:00 Isn't it very nice if you are welcome by such this beauty? Indeed, John Keats is right when he said that a thing of beauty is a joy forever. If you would see such beautiful place as this when you wake up everyday, I am very sure that it will bring joy to your heart and smile to your lips. It would be a great a start for a day! Will you agree with me?Everyday, how I wish I am (sigh).

Reflection 2008-04-10 18:44:00 How often do you look at the mirror? Do you always see a clearer reflection of you? How true are you to your acts and deed? Sometimes we pretend to be somebody to show off to everybody. There are certain reasons for doing this but isn't it best to see the real you and not that somebody you are pretending to be? Look at the two pictures. The first picture shows a clearer reflection and the other one does not. Which do you think is more beautiful and captivating, the one showing up its reflection or the one that can't be seen? Think on things, I hope you reflect on these things!Think on the deeper meaning of the two pictures.
Fireworks 2008-04-10 10:11:00 Colorful fireworks indeed! This was not a post new year celebration, it's also too late for that (laughing)! The shots were taken during our graduation rites last March 29, 2008. Finally, after spending many sleepless nights and patiently complying the requirements in all the subjects, the fruit of our labor had finally been reaped. It was also our start of our journey to the real world. Our student lives had been ended a commencement of a much tougher role.May the lives of the graduates of 2008 be as colorful as these fireworks!
