Taken at the overpass fronting Gaisano Mall.

I happen to join a contest in our City which was sponsored by Petronas Energy Philippines and Kodak. I garnered the fifth place, sixth and seventh place. This is my first time to join a photo contest which the subject is moving. It was really a nice experience as it was moved my brain to a lot of experiment in using my camera including the panning technique.  The picture that appears in the left side of this article garnered the 5th place. I will also post the other pictures that garnered the seventh and sixth place below.

Smiling faces of the fun run participants while running.

Participants at the starting point of the fun run.

This is the sixth place and the seventh place respectively. There are sixty five entries that join in this particular contest.

All of these photos are taken by a DSLR Nikon D90 with a kit lens 18-105.

I happen to shoot this yellow decorative jar in one of the hotels in Kuala Lumpur. Shot it with Nikon D90 – a camera rumored to be faced out from the Market.  I like D90 but this will be replaced by Nikon D7000.

D90 captured the yellow color of the jar/vase.  It seems it emphasizes the circle of the jar used as handle. Anyways, whatever the title is, let the picture speaks for itself.

I woke up at around 2:00 o’clock in the early dawn just to shoot this super moon – this moon occurred last March 19, 2011.  This moon is larger and nearer to the earth. Brighter than the other full moon. This was last seen in the year 1992 and again last March 19, 2011.

Taken with Nikon D90 with my kit lens 18-105mm.

This woman is waiting for somebody to throw coins to her. Once coin is thrown, she immediately dive the coin below the water. She is very quick to dive and swim to the water to get the coin. It is my first time to experience throwing coins to pier beggar. The people around told me that they belong to the Badjao tribe. I do not know the locale of this tribe.

This photo was taken when I was in Cebu, Philippines last year when the ship we were riding was about to dock.

This is the famous Petronas Twin Towers, located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Although I was not able to perfectly shoot the towers but they are still great and interesting. They are very lovely. I wish I can go back to KL and shoot again the lovely towers.

I have tried to make this picture a perfect one for the 7th No-Photoshop Photo Contest. I made it to top six out of 40 entries. How I wish to be on the top 1? haha… According to one of the veteran photographers in Iligan – “Lack of Composition”. That is part of being an amateur photographer. When could I be a professional photographer? Only time and my shots will tell.

This may be my representation for the Christmas and New Year Seasons. Although Ribbons and the small gift wrapped with golden color on the photo are very nice and interesting to see but ribbons and the gift are not important. It is the inside that matters in a gift.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone.

She stands out as she is looking for me.I took a picture to my daughter, Jayden, as she was looking for me while she was watching the dolphin show at Ocean Park, Hongkong.

Nice to see. Very inspiring as she asked me to come down the bleacher and sit beside her and watch the dolphin show together.
