Reflections

Reflections

The receding tide leaves behind little pools of water that look gorgeous when they reflect the setting sun. The long, low wall in the shot is the breakwater.

For six days in February, this institute for higher learning transforms into something akin to Woodstock

The camera bag that doesn't scream "camera bag!"

Finally: a camera bag that doesn't scream "camera bag!"

The inside of my Crumpler "5 Million Dollar Home" camera bag. The bag's perfect for those just starting out with their first SLR (like me!), as it's roomy enough to carry a camera body with attached lens, another lens, an an external flash unit.

This bag is perfect for those who don't bring a lot of photography stuff along when traveling. The bag's roomy enough to carry a compact digital SLR with attached lens (mine carries a Canon 400D with 28-135 mm lens), another lens, and an external flash unit. It's also fully padded. As a bonus, it doesn't scream "camera bag!".

The iconic structure that represents the University of the Philippines. It was made by Guillermo Tolentino. The bronze version installed in front of Quezon Hall (shown here) is a replica, with the original being housed inside the UP Main Library.
