Uy, kailan ka nagpuntang Payatas? And for what? :)

Hmm... baka puwede nating gamitin ang iba rito for our group report in Chulogy... Baka ma-floored ang Aceveydoh sa mga photographs, whynot! :p

And well, I'm sorta averse to these kinds of subject matters... Ewan ko ba. I don't think naman you "exoticized" the children. Pero I dunno... why did you take pics ba in Payatas? :)

Last Saturday. It was a favor. And medyo nagtatampo na si Michiko sa akin. :)

Anyway, this is really not my preferred subject for photographs. But, I tried as much as possible to show the humane side of the Payatas slums. I really hope I did not "exoticize" the children. It is far from my intention. I know that when it comes to these things, there is a thin line between being vulgar and increasing social awareness.

But, if there are some photographs you think are inappropriate for public viewing, please tell me so that I can remove it asap.

Hmmm... Kunektado kaya ito sa river wild nung tinirahan mo sa Obrero? :)

Vic, can I kidnap Michiko in exchange for Casey? Inggit ako. I want to be able to take pictures as nice as these. :D

nice shots.. kids are such nice subjects noh?

viccapistrano wrote on Jan 24, '06, edited on Jan 24, '06

Haha, magtatampo si Michiko. :) You should attend a class I'm sponsoring for Heights on March 6. Siguro just to refresh what you've learned from jo avila and learn a bit more. It's an amateurs' open forum kind of class, but there are lectures.

They are nice subjects, i think, because they're less pretentious than adults. But, I wouldn't want to put it that way since I feel guilty taking shots of children in poverty. Too much an abstraction imho.

vulnerability of THE face ba ito, vic?

vic, weird. comment ko yung "vulnerability of THE face ba ito, vic?" tapos ewan ko kung sino si patch.

fongoloid wrote on Jan 25, '06

Remind me on March 6, para pumunta ako. :) And let me tag along when you go take photos! :)

@jack: ganyan minsan ang multiply lalo na kung may previous na gumamit ng computer. Vulnerability of the face? Haha, sana. Non-indifference in difference. :)

@minnie: Sure, no problem. The other speaker uses a Canon G6 so you may ask her for any information on a Canon p&s. Sige, if I find the time to take photos again I will tell you.

Feb 9-12: 10th Philippine Hot Air Balloon Fiesta in Clarkfield, Pampanga

I might go on the 11th or 12th. It depends on the "hellishness" of the hell week. :) Anyway, you can go there with your friends if you want. Astig kumuha ng photos dun especially if you have a polarizing filter to emphasize the blue sky. Here's their website:

Aiel went there before. Paging Aiel, ano? transpo mo na lang? :)

That wasn't my intended message, but it's an ok interpretation. :) It's more in the theme of "immersion" for me.

ganda ng pics ah! kailangan pa ba ng model release kapag nagpopost ng pics ng mga batang hindi mo kakilala?

viccapistrano wrote on Apr 16, '06, edited on Apr 16, '06

You don't have to, methinks. :) Most of the time, a signed mrf is needed for professional models and celebrities. But, you can always be a paparazzi. :) Once you click the shutter, it's your property already.

ah.. ok ok.. thanks! :D
