Despite the crowded commercial areas, they savored the sunset and welcomed the new year with beachside fireworks. Overall, a memorable and enjoyable trip.
It’s been a while since I shot these CHRISTmas bokeh shots. Had some free time after dinner and decided to do a quick shoot. In the midst of our hustle and bustle, parties and celebration, let us not forget the real reason for this season – our Lord Jesus Christ. All shots were shot RAW with my ancient […]

The Lenten season in the Philippines marks the start of summer travels. Despite travel restrictions easing, the trip to Liwliwa, Zambales took twice as long due to heavy traffic.

Overall, it was a refreshing getaway from the city hustle.

For the noodles, since we didn’t have enough time to make our own from scratch, we used spaghetti then boiled it with baking soda then we […]
I recently got a chance to acquire this pre-loved CS Nocaster. I had to part ways with 2 of my guitars to get this done. I love the U shape neck in this and how it drips with tone! The flamed maple neck is a great touch too! All photos taken with the Sony A7lll […]
Fender Japan makes some of the best value Fender electric guitars in the world. They can definitely hold their own and in many cases, are better built with better craftsmanship the their same USA made counterpart (except maybe for the Fender elite, vintage reissue and custom shop series).

It’s been a while since I last used my Rolleiflex 2.8FE2. It’s a camera that is older than me (manufactured between 1959-1960) but it’s still functioning like it should which is a great testament to the German build quality and workmanship. For this random shoot. I used an expired roll of Kodak Pro 160. Despite […]
