Since I'm still having hangovers of the CL 7.0 adrenaline rush,
no other topic comes into mind other than the things that happened
Lian :D
Early morning of the first day, got to meet personally new found
friends *dahil kinapalan ko na lang ang mukha ko para maka carpool :D*
Che, the one Jay informed me to contact for the carpool (salamat
nga pala ulet Jay!) and her sister Anna, a Chicago based free lancer
who is savoring her last weeks of vacation here in Pinas by having
a series of photography seminars :D.
As expected, the travel time of 3 hours to Lian (appox 100 km from
Paranaque ) was enough for a short breakfast along the way + some
stop overs to keep our bladders from bursting. We made it just in
time :D
During the lecture, Sir Jerry Tieng arrived, surprisingly he was
also a participant of the workshop. I acquired my D80 + accessories
thru his online site :D *discount naman dyan....*
By past 3 pm, we are preparing to go to the site where we would apply
what Jay and Edwin discussed during the lectures. Going to Payong
Payong point we have taken a short ride by car, a short boat ride
plus a lot of rock trekking :D.
But the part where the adrenalin rush came in was when the sun was
setting, it was setting so fast, i haven’t yet found any foreground
for my composition yet, to make it worst, it was high tide! waist
deep!, *knee deep lang sa ibang participants hahaha *my camera
backpack's bottom part was wet due to the incoming little waves,
in a nutshell... i did not get a decent shot of the sun setting,
but, its alright, babawi ako ulet sa payong payong point.
going home.. at the resort, dinner was served! plus a short briefing
and a lecture was held before we hit the sack,
woke up before 5 am, as i had only 4 hours of sleep dahil sinumpung
ako ng allergic rhinithis ko! *dapat nakapag dala ako ng vicks para
ipahid malapit sa butas ng ilong ko, hehehe*. Anyhow, exited to
catch the sunrise, to try my luck on getting a decent shot in the
morning, the location was the shoreline, a short walk across the
shoreline, so when we got there, Edwin gave us some tips on proper
use of the filters, then shooting galore! then after the shoreline
shot, post processing time!
The workshop as great, it exceeded my expectations, i thought it
will just be a simple workshop on how to compose and use filters.
Experiencing first hand on how to find the perfect moment, finding
the right timing, finding the fine light, exploring, made the real
difference. Plus the use of PFE also made a difference :D
*two thumbs up isasama ko na yung thumbs sa paa ko 4 thumbs up na :D*
Kita Kits sa next shoot!
Ingatz to all :D
