Monastery of Transfiguration

AEV (-2,0,+2), f22, ISO100

A friend of mine once told me there is this Monastery in Bukidnon that is one of a kind, Pyramid-shaped "what a great Architecture". This Monastery is located in San Jose Malaybalay City. My friend invited me to visit the place and I was so enthusiastic about it because I believed its going to be a very nice subject for my Photography. When I visited the Monastery, I was wearing shorts and the regulation says, no shorts. To pass through the security, I need to wear "Saya" just like Missionaries do. It seems funny but I was really wearing it. lol. Besides, I was there to pray and take photos, so its alright.

I used Lightroom and Photomatix during post processing. I hope you like it. More photos are to be uploaded soon.

Reminder: Always wear Proper Attire when visiting the Monastery of Transfiguration.:-)

Weipa Fishing Classic

June 9,2012 I was in Weipa Australia. I'm so glad to be part of their annual celebration "Weipa Fishing Classic". It was indeed a great time.

As we were waiting for our taxi service, I enjoyed the sun going down. Few minutes after the sunset, i took a shot at this car "w/o the owners permission, lol.." and it gave me a great perspective. I showed it to the owner later on and he was so amazed. I can still remember what he told me then, "Just don't sell it mate.". It was really great. I told him that i would just put it in personal use, lol.

Using Photomatix, I created an HDR image out of the bracketed (AEV -2,0,+2) photos I took. Then as my eye sees it, I concluded my editing up to this point of view. I hope you'll love this photo.

Here are some photos i took during the celebration:

Murmansk Russia

In Murmansk Russia, all the fields were red by the time i took this simple landscape. It was late August as I could remember. Color is still dry, I need more practice in post-processing. This is a passion, I can do it.
