Photography: Day 6 | Stuck in traffic

Woke up on Sunday with a mindset that I have to get my shots down. Since this day, I'll be busy with attending a press screening, and meet relatives that lived in overseas, with a baby in tow. 

Travelling from home to the venue of the screening we were caught by a traffic right in front of another mall(SM East Ortigas), for some unknown reasons. I thought to myself to keep an eye out for a shot that I could use, and this is where I got the image.


About the shot:

Photography: Day 5 | Stop the car, I got to get my shot!

Here we are on the 5th day of 2019. I was already thinking of what to shoot while I was still at work.

I typically shoot during the morning as I currently shoot with a mobile phone(Huawei P9). I'm not saying that it isn't good when it comes to low light, I just want to focus on shooting in the morning.h

Shot on an overpass on C5 while I was on my way to pick up my wife from work. Yes I stopped the car and went up the overpass to get the shot.

Photography: Day 3 | An attempt for a portrait session

It is now, January 3, 2019 around 7am. I'd like to try to write before I get my photo shot. I know it seems weird but, I'd like to write this post and see how I'll construct my write up after the actual shot. Writing the intro shouldn't hurt since this is just a place holder sort of speak...

I spoken with my office mate to accompany me to help me shoot her as subject to help me practice. I have a rough idea what I'll be shooting but I'll have to see how the shooting conditions will be and time constrains.

...Continuing the write up it is now, January 3, 2019, 00:46AM.

So we went out to Metrowalk, a place filled with bars and restaurants that open before or after lunch.  We opted to shoot there since there's minimal people to interfere what we were doing.  I was very happy with the output even though our shooting time was short, we were still able to get a lot of images.

I shot with 2 cameras, 1st on my Huawei P9, 2nd on Sony A7r Mark III. I want to utilize both cameras that I had that time to its fullest during the session.

I hope I can get productive output same as this day.

Photography: Day 2 | Shall we go out for a walk

I was unable to report to work because my son has been sick since new year's eve. With the help of long hours of rest, and some meds my son felt a better. My wife and son were sound asleep around 5:00 am, so I went out for a walk to practice.

Some might say that it is too early to shoot, but if you're waiting for the first sight of sunrise, I may be cutting in close. But since I live on a hill, getting a clear view of the sky and some foliage. I shot most of that with another camera which will be featured in another post(wink wink).

I was very lucky to get back to my favorite practice spot, when no one was around. I love shooting alone.

I doubt that I'll be alone the following day since I'll have to report to work and think of something. We'll see how that shot comes...

Photography: Day 1| How the 1st day of 2019

How did I spend my new year's eve? Simple, I was at work.

Here's another year and the temptation of starting another Project 365. Where you take a photo each day all through out the year.

I was able to complete Project 365 back in 2013(I think) but failed to start it up again, in the previous years after a year of rest.

So, here I am again trying to see where I'm at with my photography and will keep it up to date as much as I can(I hope).
