bury me in this dress

I created a separate blog for my photography. I’ll add more photos when I have the chance. Do check out Camera Obscura. No watermarks there at least none at this time hrhrhr. I used the Grace Photoblog theme which I find very elegant and pretty.

I want to organize a photography expedition group since I don’t want to visit such places alone. I want them creepy and I want them old.

Like this Sta. Ana building

Or Diplomat Hotel in Baguio

If you know any, please leave a comment.

PS
I don’t know whom to credit for the photos so if anybody knows, comment is open.

I was about to sleep when I stumbled upon http://superhyperreal.com/ and was blown away by the photography of Jing Quek.

Aren’t they great?! Check out his website to see more of his photography.

Shoot me. I took these last March 20 and only got to upload them today. I have so many photo upload backlogs but bleh. In time, my dear. I was probably the only one in the tour who didn’t pray. Click the photo to access the album.

Been lazy lately but I finally uploaded my Tagaytay photos to my flickr account. They’re also here in my blog through a nice plugin.

The photos were taken months ago. Some are of Tagaytay Highlands and some from Sonia’s Garden.

I don’t know why I bothered putting up one but it’s up and running, my photoblog. Is kinda nice but not much photos there right now. I’m also worried about my webspace. Boo! Go visit Camera Obscura! I used Pixelpost cos of the abundance of addons and themes. FYI, I use a Nikon D80 for my photography. I don’t have any other lens at the moment except the one which came with the kit.

I’ve been obsessing over photographs of ruins in Russia ever since my friend Kris showed me a link to this lj group. I don’t know how I to describe this obsession but I just find those photos so fascinating! I even keep on telling my friends who are into photography that we should go to Ukraine and just take photos of ruined structures. I’m nuts of course. I don’t think they’re nice to foreigners there. Well that’s what I gathered after watching Everything Is Illuminated (a really good film. I highly recommend it!). Anyway, here’s a nice example of what I’m talking about.

I found more groups of abandoned lovers. Check out the following if you like this stuff:

• Abandoned
• Rural Decay
• Haunted Houses, Creepy Buildings and Other Places
• Urban Desolation
• Post Communism
• IRO? CU?TAIN

Since I couldn’t go to Russia, I decided to make a flickr abandoned group closer to home. Join my Abandoned Philippines group if you have something to contribute. I haven’t had much opportunities to take photographs of Manila’s ruins but I will soon.

P.S.

I don’t know how to put captions under photos here in Wordpress. Teach me please!

I was googling for Russian cameras when I stumbled upon a tutorial on how to make digital photos look like they were taken with a Lomo LC-A camera. So I loaded my trusty Photoshop and tried the tutorial on one of my most recent shots.

The original photo

 After a bit of tweaking, here is the result.

Is very nice, eh?

 You can try it with your own photos. Just go to the tutorial at Digital Photography School.

Actually, my photos, not me. I entered 4 photos for the Food Tour contest. I think I have a good chance but we’ll see. I’m trying to convince my friends to vote but they need to sign up for a Yehey account first and they’re a bunch of lazies.

Help me win! Vote for my photos at http://www.yehey.com/promos/trinoma/dementia.html
