Until the last minute, we were undecided on taking the bus to San Francisco or renting a car. It would be less of a hassle and cheaper if we opted for the bus but it would definitely be an adventure if we drove. We chose the latter and after two hours of driving, our GPS […]
The UP Men’s Basketball Team won their first UAAP game in almost 2 years last Sunday. Most other schools are aiming their sights on the final four while we were just hoping for at least one win. It was nice to see the team’s fighting spirit once again. UP Fight! We were so inspired by […]
One of our frequent regrets during beach trips is not bringing a disposable underwater camera. We always forget to buy one. While window shopping at the mall, we found a cheap underwater plastic housing called Dicapac that somehow fits our trusty Ricoh. At first I was a bit hesitant to trust an expensive piece of […]
Rule: Sync speed is the fastest shutter speed you can use with flash, period. The 5D’s flash sync speed is 1/200. At a recent wedding just before packing up, I tried experimenting with my cam’s sync speed by setting it to 1/500. I then asked our assistant Archie to illuminate one side of his face […]

… and it almost became our last place to visit. Hahaha. Just got back today from Batanes after a 2-day photo safari courtesy of Epson Philippines (thanks to Markku!) and would really like to blog about our ‘very memorable’ Batanes experience (let’s just say that the The Boat is Sinking game is no fun for […]
We realized that we haven’t been documenting our travels as much as we used to when we had a point & shoot camera because we’d rather leave the bulky dslr behind. So this year we vowed to take more personal photos and got the Ricoh GR Digital II point and shoot cam. We chose the […]
