Hey friends.
So.. the rest of the cool Jollibee pictures AND Main Event photos will be posted on another date... along with a host of other photos I need to post on this thing -sorry it's not in chronological order =[. Marc took my camera and shot around during Battle of the Barrios, and I have cute puppy photos!
Hmm...side note: do people prefer the slideshow (see first post) or the photos all placed one after the other with captions? I wonder which is more aesthetically pleasing.
Anyway, so today I went to a fishing pier for a few hours with my photographer friend, JR Pena. Here's a couple shots from the shoot: (slideshow version.. I figure I'll try slideshows and just straight posting ... until someone tells me otherwise, or until I get a real legit website up and running! yay.)

PS. I have a wish list going.. in order of preference, but not necessarily in order of my budget (so this is more like a "dream on" list):
1. AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED (2.9x) (i-need-a-2.8-good-overall-lens)
2. AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G OR AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G (difference in price.. difference in performance???)
3. AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G IF-ED (2.9x) . (if ever i pursue sports photography or photography in the wild/war-torn regions of .. somewhere)
ONE DAY, i'll get the first lens on the list (used or something decent so it's cheaper!). Though price-wise.. the 35mm seems more in my range for right now. Too bad it's backordered like whoa, and since it's new, I'm not entirely sure it's as good as they say.

PSS. Photography is a hobby; videography is a hobby which has made me some money/really is my forte/i should, in the end, spend more money (invest more money) in videography. don't get me started on a wish list for video equipment... (in a REAL reach of mine: combining photo/video, the 5D mk. ii. haha. i should post a sample short film or something.. shot entirely with my d90 video capabilities). <3 video editing/video-taping multi-angle events/TV reporting.. but i want to get into more creative video projects (editing put to awesome use). any ideas??
PSSS (WHAT?!): i love journalism/having a journalistic approach. that means NEWS. =] ...and finally, adieu. goodnight.
