Been remiss blogging and shooting this past few months. I’m actually starting to loose the desire on photography, but as always, Manny Librodo’s shots awaken my sleeping passion.
So I packed up and decided to do some street photography at the Fish market here in Doha. This shoot put me in trouble not only with the [...]

Just sharing a recent shoot i had at home with my housemate Allen’s girl friend, Marie.
It’s fun to be shooting with a group of photographers, except that I don’t get to dictate the shots that I wanted to make. So despite the ever growing Doha Pinoy Shooters Flickr Group, I had to venture and [...]

Got the chance to join a studio shoot just recently. It’s actually more of a make shift studio rather than the expensive, high tech, high end studio you might be invisualizing.
We had a two light set up - one soft box and one strobe shoot on an umbrella. Participants included some of the members of [...]

It’s been an awfully long day for me, 4 am an I’m still up, with all the clattering and banging just outside my window (another building is being tore down) sleep just can’t seem to engulf me within its confines.
Anyway, I just came home from another EB shoot with some of the Doha Pinoy Shooters [...]

Been doing digital photography for more than a year now, and not once during that time was I able to get hold of photoshop to post process my shots. Was relying heavily on gimp for some post processing requirements.
Anyway, one of the benefits of photography is being able to meet new friends. Luckily one of [...]

Just posting a few shots during a sunrise shoot at Wakra Beach, Qatar.
Hope I did the strobist thing some justice. Planning to come back and shoot more as soon as my Cactus V2 flash trigger and receiver arrives.
My camera was glitching during the shoot and I can’t seem to adjust aperture and shutter speed. This [...]

Just sharing a shot from our recent meet up at the Souq Waqaf here in Doha:
Set up: One strobe camera lower right
Despite all the internet materials I’ve read for a couple of months now, I still can’t seem to get a hang of strobing, I guess the key is more practice than theory. Anyway, the slack [...]

Just posting a few shots I took during a solitary shooting night at the Doha, Corniche. I really wanted to take more shots by my camera unfortunately broke down, and I can’t seem to use the manual modes, luckily though, it got ok after I went home. Anyway, some of the shots:
