Hopping to Boracay 2012!!

Hopping to Boracay 2012!!

Hello! 

Welcome to my travel blog series, where i can take you to the most exotic corners in the world to grande scale monuments in places you can enjoy!  

From two years ago, i went to my home country the Philippines!! What is fun in the Philippines is... its exotic and untouched resorts and restorations, there are many more attraction and landmarks that marks the enjoyment of it... such as gigantic Buenas Rice Terraces , soothing Chocolate Hills of Bohol and gently shaking of Mayon Volcano in Legazpi City!! and much more...

Although in this particular journey, i hopped on the festive and majestic Boracay Island!!

Boracay island is one of the richest and diverse island in the Philippines from the whitest of its grainiest sand(really it's sand is definitely white! you'll never see those just in this island)  to its corroded indigenous sculptures in these mini sub islands. This escapade favours the foriegns and tourist around the world.

On my first days in the island was exhausting but amazingly awed. 

'Island hopping' through and around the island had been a hopeful experience, the feels were very hot and sunny all round - at the same time its breeze of air , so fresh and can almost taste its salty flavour which i thought was humorous . Hoping on these waving and clashing waves compliments the spectrum altogether, that is what makes the island special! Again this was a great opportunity to use my photography skills. The picture above is 'turtle island' it is said that somehow it shapes itself and now appearing as the animal turtle! How fascinating?... This picture i like was  the blue waves shining and by that.. it focuses the rigid shadows this brings the roughness and textures. However, there are many animal shaped island that surrounds the Boracay Island... That is for you! to find out!! 

As the first timer, travelling in this destinations? I recommend you to go and travel!! This destinations provides you all in!! experiences for you, couples, uncles, cousins, grandparents, families! Anyone! Loving the heat? sands,beaches!? why not hop in!! 

Get it all in experiences now!

Nature Talks...

Nature Talks...

Sometimes, taking your time staring at its finest creation and detail. This series is all about close up to nature especially the great detail flowers have in them. The secret to best close-up photography is the great depth of field were the foreground is very sharp and crisp in conjunction with accessible direction on lighting - that is where good photography starts!

There are more consideration in close-up photography, make sure apply the golden rule of  “Rule of thirds” as it provides balance and harmony through the naked eye and there is no more explain to it. Most important you apply the easy step on aperture use!. Simple like a piece of cake! 

These amateur, great at first time photography was captured by my fellow team mates  at my time during NCS summer. We went searching and aiming for a new things for their own photographic signature. It was sure a challenge! I rather capture a photograph which consist simplicity and a speck of emotion or something that attached to people’s eyes and memories.

Until Next Time! See you soon!

The Tales of a Girl....

The Tales of a Girl....

The fondness of tales and story has really been interesting and exciting, this pathway, the theme of fairy tales can invisibly feel admirable and dreamy although I found that these such things can appeal mystery and a cautious vibe into it. This is girl who is fascinated by the influence of fairy tales in this way I have considered to alter the changes and perception of these. Therefore, conceptualising the idea where political and current affairs can be affected in such things but unnoticed for the public. The girl proposed a powerful icon as it shows realism and brings contextual awareness of this stereotypical thoughts therefore brings this state of context can invisibly hide the concerning issues into the modern world and yet a little girl can bring hope in the future generation as sphere of light is shown.

Photoshooting at St Paul's Cathedral

Photoshooting at St Paul's Cathedral

Hello! Welcome to my travel blog series in conjunction with Photography blogs too! , Where i can take you to the historic and adventurous streets of London. From where hidden victorian secrets are to the adoring secret gardens in London...

A long month ago, i went to an artistic field trip to "Tate Modern". It is a gallery full of innovative and interactive art experiences and I visited to an exhibition of 'Sigma Polke' an artist that i would say; extreme, explicit and extra-ordinary. It gave me a shock, admiring and seeing his works and footage across in his life is truly bizarre. One of my favourite is his ' Untitled (Quetta, Pakistan)'   I used works as an inspiration of my 'Mystery and Imagination' project and it was an interesting thing to develop from it. Soon i'll post this later on my future blogs.

Untitled (Quetta, Pakistan)

After the exhibition, I and my fellow friends (credit them for the modelling!!) fly up to the rooftop beside the St Paul Cathedral, it has a spectacular 360 aerial view which is great for Cityscape photography! Taking snapshot from this amazing scene seems so surreal, as i would never imagine seeing an aerial view of historic and sacred landmark such as this. In this photoshoot, i chose this place as to bring the stories into the real world therefore, capturing in an modern approach were people can similarly relate to them, triggers its attraction and likeness of these series of photos. 

Until Next Time! See you soon!!

Quick Stop.. At Paris!

Quick Stop.. At Paris!

Hello! Welcome to my travel blog series, where i can take you to the most exotic corners in the world to grande scale monuments in places you can enjoy!

At the beginning of January, it was my petit sister's birthday and we had a quick stop at 'Le Paris' because she wished to see madeline (if you would know the famous 'french orphanage girl' cartoon character) I laughed with enjoyment. I was also excited as it was my first time being there and so it is great opportunity to take snaps!

Around 9pm, eventually stop at the famous 'Eiffel Tower'. My first expression was 'WOAHH' as i could have never thought it would be grand as i thought it would be. You know, what is even more magical about it, was that it glowed and sparkle at night even better was that the full moon is as bright as sun was present too and that was fantastic. I did not have much enough pictures during the night, as lighting was limited so detail in pictures was inefficient although these two pictures i took were great!

Magical Path to Disneyland 'Quick Stop'
Haha! It is not finished yet... There was another magical surprise my petit sister received! Disneyland!! she was yet lucky. Honestly, i did enjoyed the place although the weather was a disappointing as it was grey and cloudy throughout the day so as chilly too.
 On the positive note being there, felt was like a kid again, in the inside it was like there was a fiery jumping feeling that something you are excited about. As you spend for long around the disneyland, i realised the accuracy and detail to effort making this theme park amazing. It was funny as my sister thought 'magic' made this happen...

Overall, this was an exciting taster experience... In my opinion, going back at summer with friends or families ! Would be much great, bomber-tastic and blast of enjoyment. Spending at the hot beaches at France to riding a magic carpet to Disneyland. If i have another choice, i'd like to come back so what are you waiting for? I recommend you to visit this place like this for family and inner-child entertainment/experience.

I say reach for your dreams!... 

Until Next time! See you soon!

"CONNECTIONS AND ABSENCE SERIES"

On the world of siblings in this theme ‘Relationships’ it is intriguing of how and the perceptions of this related beings can portray a sense of urgency and lost. An Attachment that highlights social issues and personal issues that influences our relationships. The series made this feel a certain traces through time and yet this still images are constantly moving in our minds and thoughts. Depicting twins can be a deceiving way as we thought it could be oneself, so this questions the relationship of this… Similarity or Differences may seem to over flow contradictions of these connections and yet their expressions is a greeting of absences.

Hello! Welcome to my travel blog series, Where i can take you to the historic and adventurous streets of London. From where jack rippers murders are to the adoring secret gardens in London...

Two months ago, i went to something more of club like and artistic; In SoHo "The Photographers Gallery" In my opinion, this gallery is modern, bold and new to open our eyes and perception. 

Recently, I visited an exhibition called ' Human rights and wrongs' this takes you on a sense of place where it captivates the scene of justice and conflicts in these pictures. Most are beautiful and most are also humanely. When i entered there, feelings and thoughts are rushing as you go along with these series of pictures. and It Sure does! brings you to a place of time. 

Honestly, without journalistic photographers we won't have the truth and justice. As they tell you in black and white the scenes and stories from each person in these pictures.

Be sure you visit there, If you loved photography, art or even social sciences!

Its open doors to anyone!

Until Next time!! see you soon!!
