About me

love to take pictures of people... to capture the moment... to find beauty in ordinary things taken for granted... it's a high for me to get that...

i'm from the Philippines but i've been based in Tokyo, Japan for more than 6 years now, thus most of my photos are scenes i capture in Tokyo.

i now use an old Kiss Rebel (without autofocus) with Nifty Fifty lens. i also still use a Canon PowerShot A3400IS and an iPhone 5s.

i'm just a hobbyist and would never even dream of competing with the talent here. but my photographs are glimpses of what i find where i am and the life i live... i'm happy to have made friends who appreciate my pictures. and from what i've gathered, my writing might be better than my photography (lol)

Note: profile photo courtesy of photographer friend, Rey Fajardo. Thanks!

some people drink, some people smoke, i take pictures.......................................

    Hi. Carina

    nakita ko mga photos mo.
    Good well siyemre introduce ang pilipinas sa ibang lahi
    para naman bumisita sila sa manila diba.

    sana wag kang magsawa kakapindot ng kamera then try din sa ibang medium like black & white or experimental or editing ng photos is good also.

    till then kabayang Filipina.

    I'm Here sa Dubai for work by the way try also see my photos same website. Good DAy & Good LUCK.

    Hi Carina,
    thanks for your kind words to my bug story. Those are no ladybirds but potatoe bugs. They live in potatoe plantations and destroy the plants. They are hated by every farmer. But they look beautiful with their stripes. The story is about a potatoe bug modell who is walking up and down a catway in a model show. Her dress is covered with valuable pearls. At the end (foto 8) she is tired and foto 9 she is fllying home.
    My kind regard wiebke
