My FPPF Strobist Workshop @ 2 Years

It's been a hectic first quarter year and yet our March blog is found empty. Without going into tedious details on what's been going on, I'd like to highlight here that my strobist workshop with the FPPF is two years old so far! It was never easy as every workshop of mine has my whole being immersed in it. Yours truly thanks from the bottom of my heart the Federation of Philippine Photographers Foundation, Inc. and Columbia Digital Star Corp. for all the support...and my beloved participants who enrolled-kudos to all of you!

More Fun In The Philippines: Fine Arts Week!

Kung hei fat choi! What a new way to celebrate the Chinese New year by inviting family and friends to a feast of visual, orgasmic treats: The University of the Philippines' College of Fine Arts: Fine Arts Week! It's the perfect place to look for inspirations. During Fine Arts Week, nothing is weird and everything is art! Cheers!
