Eraserheads Live! The Final Set!

College will always be a special period in my life and throughout, I’ve come to know a lot of friends, and lived rich experiences with them. Despite old and fungi-fested negatives of photographs which never made to the scanner age, if there’s one thing that helps me relive all those years, it would be the [...]

With all the resources out there, this should quickly get you into film processing quickly. This is meant as a beginner’s How-To in developing/processing your Black and White film without the need of a darkroom. But, it should, by no means be considered as a one-top-shop for the topic.

Slowing Down and Reuniting with Film

One Way

In this day and age of digital cameras and warp-speed workflows, why would anyone want to go film? That’s a question that has been asked of me these past few weeks. I don’t know, maybe because after a stressful year at work and the associated warp-speed timelines,  I really DO want to SLOW down and [...]

3 Reasons Why Photos Stay Closetted

What good are your photos for if all they’re doing is just gathering electronic dust in your harddrive? That’s a question I frustratingly ask some of my friends who have shown me really stunning photos in their cameras and in their computers.

It’s About Time. Goodbye IT, Hello Photography.

After nearly six years, I’ve finally come to my senses and decided to live my life “normally.” Yes, I’ve decided to leave WolfPac Mobile and yesterday, was my last day. It took a lot of guts for me to leave it all behind (my constant source of stress, and yet my comfort zone as well), [...]

Grams Diner Photos

Spilled Coffee Beans

Just recently I was commissioned to shoot a diner’s menu. So shoot I did. Last friday (may 20), the new menu has been released. But aside from the menu itself, some of my photos (around 15 big big big photos) are viewable on the walls of the diner. So practically speaking, it’s an exhibit of [...]

Clouds Over The Makati City Hall (Time Lapse)

I was hoping the color of light would change dramatically but it didnt. However, subtle movement (cars, clouds) can be noticed if you look closely. :)


A Time Lapse Experiment

I’ve had my camera, a D300, for years now and it has this feature to shoot photos at pre-defined intervals. I’m practically hitting myself in the head for not trying this early on, but it’s never too late to give it a shot.

Top Reasons Why You Might Want To Get That Backup Harddisk Already

Regardless of the interests that you have, it’s most likely that you have already accumulated huge amounts of data across the years. However you put it, these data is a big part of your life already. From your college papers, your business presentations, to your accounting and tax sheets, from your technical whitepapers to personnel [...]


Deliciously del.icio.us!

For anyone who uses, at the least, two computers (e.g. a home PC and an office laptop), maintaining a common set of bookmarks can be very tedious. When a change is made on one computer, I used to export bookmarks from it and import into the other, and vice-versa, in an almost vicious cycle. It [...]

Cafes Are Not Just About Exhorbitantly Priced Coffee

Have you ever found yourself trying to work on something for hours and still ended up with nothing at all? Sometimes, the best way to actually get work done is to just walk away from it and have a change of scenery. Let’s admit it, there will always be times when you’d want to just [...]


Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Pain) and How Cycling Helped Ease It

For those who don’t know, Plantar Fasciitis is a very painful condition of the heel which is aggravated by extensive standing, walking, running, and weight-bearing (including my own) activities. It has been [...]
