However "tempting" the situation may be, huwag nalang maging "hokage".

I do freelance photography and may naka xdeal akong model na newbie 18 y/o and shes already doing car show modelling... We chatted sa fb and agreed to do a sexy shoot sa condo, una naka tank top and shorts then tank top and panty then bra and panty na lang tapos i asked her if okay topless and tatakpan naman nya ng kamay... Pumayag naman sya pero sabi nya may bayad na 1k... Sabi ko okay lang magbayad ako kung pwede nya ko i hj after, napaisip sya pero pumayag din.

So after ng photoshoot, sabi ko i hj na nya ko.... Tapos nauwi sa pag bj hahaha

Cool experience, we sometimes see each other pa, wala ng shoot pero she do the deed when we meet.

Sometimes sa car pag sinusundo ko sya

Low light shots will really benefit if you can use a tripod or even a monopod.

"TiyanPad" works for me :-)

nice one! mind sharing the exif data?

highly commercialized and dami koreans

punta ka sa Diniwid beach, walang masyadong tao dun :-)

ilan hours travel time from iloilo airport to caticlan?

4,5 hours kung may sarili kang transport, mga 6 pag bus/van/ceres

Hmm naku pero licensed naman kasi nag lagay ng activation key. Anyways thanks guys! Bobo ko sa computer eh haha ano ba mga essential software na idownload bukod sa antivirus at chrome?

depende kung para saan mo gagamitin ang pc mo, ikaw lang makakasagot nyan.

Hoping someone could help out...

Bumili kasi ako ng Hitachi 2TB SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" hoping na magagamit ko siya as external hard drive ko... bumili ako ng 3.5" HDD External case USB 2.0.. ngayon pag plug ko di siya nagautorun and di siya nalabas sa my computer, pero sinasabi ng laptop na may external device na nakaplugin naman... ang tanong ko po, 1. Bakit di siya narereflect sa My computer? And 2. Kelangan ba 3.0 din ang enclosure ko? Tia mga boss! Sana masagot po...

1. make sure na loaded ang whatever driver needed for the enclosure

2. punta ka disk management after mo ma load ang drivers, at initialize mo ang hdd na nandun sa enclosure

 

stay at Station 1 - always peaceful and stress free

 

i always stay at a beachfront hotel near the Grotto

Not only sa Station 1, may spill pa ng "guests" eh. dun mismo sa Diniwid Beach, likod pa ng Grotto, talagang secluded :-)

if you want serenity, go to diniwid beach part, or sa dulo na ng station 3, dun tahimik. part of station 1 towards station 2 and part ng station 3 after that is a bit crowded, but not much naman lalo past 11pm.

sarap ng kwentuhan nyo.

yeah, maraming na "disappoint" lalo na pag sumali sa mga photography forum, lol.

for me, i'll ALWAYS be in photography.

Why?

Because the reason I puchased a DSLR is to take better pics of my FAMILY.

So as long as nandyan ang reason na yan, di ako matitigil sa hobby na to.

Bonus nalang siguro yung paminsan-minsang event gigs, etc.

as long as properly calibrated ang monitor, no issues, be it Mac or Windows-based.

mahabang diskusyon to sa color correction, profile, etc.

I personally use a hackintosh on IPS panels :-)

natawa nalang ako.

hay buhay photographer nga naman :-)

hahaha, yung nagpa-blotter/barangay nga sa akin pag tinignan mo mga posts nya, para kang nag shoot sa 3/4 inch na GI pipe ng mga 10 ft ang haba sa sobrang kapal ng vignette.

Just happens kasi na Founder sya ng isang photo group dito sa lugar, sila ang nagpapatakbo ng photography course sa isang university at medyo napahiya yata sa sinabi ko :-P

New MAC user. I don't know how to use it yet. But i need to install office, adobe and corel. looking online for torrents but can't find any for MAC. any suggestions? no budget for the original software yet

saw your post sa Iloilo thread, followed you here.

and here's my answer:

Office https://kat.cr/microsoft-office-for-mac-2016-v15-22-crack-mac-osx-t12562380.html

as for Adobe and Corel, not sure which particular suite you are looking for?

I ALWAYS welcome criticism sa work ko, that's one way to improve kasi eh.

marami ako nakabangaan na fellow photographers. I even got hauled to a barangay "lupon" sometime last month kasi I criticised a photography teacher for saying "mas malakas ang flash output pag nag shoot ka in portrait mode kesa landscape orientation ang camera" hahahaha.

ako naman puro hobby lang talaga...yun nga lang, its a short lived one. Havent shot again since 2013, nakatago lang gears ko, buti na lang wala pang fungus.

 

honestly, i never really put my photos out publicly - not really bec im shy about showing them or not that i think they're really panget but rather ayoko manakaw yung tira at concept ko... some pinoy shooters can be really "feelingers" when it comes to their shots. Coz of this why i chose to stay away from pinoy photog groups like a plague back in SG.

Good thing you avoided them, hahaha.

Although meron din naman positive vibe kung nasa group, lalo na pag newbie. Just don't rely on the group.

the best advise I had: "Keep on shooting"

hahaha, subjective naman lahat ang photography.

for me, stress-reliever lang to, i don't care what other people say about my photos :-)

tyaga lang din ako sa Sigma 105 kasi yan lang din kaya ng budget.

kung finicky critters ang target mo, then you need longer macro lenses :-)

 

eto sample ng mga tira ko - http://manilatonight.com/index.php?showtopic=31489&p=9779581

 

nakakatamad kasi mag shoot ulit, wala ako maisip na magandang i-subject ....

and here's mine :-)

sa akin naman BPI nag time deposit ako ng 500k, basta na lang ako pinadalan ng credit card after 3months

150k deposited at my BDO savings account for three months but no approval from card application yet. May chance pa kaya?

di ibig sabihin na mag deposit ka lang ay ok na. tinitignan din nila ang provenance ng funds mo, kung may movement ba or wala or kung sa assessment nila ay meron ka talagang pambayad later on sa credit card.

I've had time dep amounting to millions (several accounts) but not ONCE na nag offer ang BDO sa akin ng credit card. Di rin naman ako nag aapply since i don't need it naman.

Usually, may makikita ka gumagala sa SM malls na mga "agents" na para dyan. A few months back, meron mga taga MetroBank yata yun sa grocery area. All you need to present initially is a PRC license.

Lately, may mga kiosks ako nakita na from MayBank naman, also offering credit cards.

I make it point to ALWAYS calibrate my monitor. The Mac has a simple calibration function built into the Display tab of System Preferences. If nothing else, do that. But best find someone who has a Spyder or a Colormunki. Set your screen to D65. Alternatively, you would set gamma to no more than 2.2. I've used 1.8 in the past because I found it gave me truer colors. That way you completely avoid the problem.

if you are in the photo 'business' it is very BASIC to have at least a calibrated monitor. and if you personally print, then calibrate that also.

all the great images you capture, and eventually share (or print) are useless if on the other end (the viewer) will not be able to appreciate it fully because of some discrepancy in colors.

now, for those na walang spyder or calibration systems, here's what some of my friends do: they calibrate their screens using the image on one of their iDevices. now, i can't verify the veracity of the claims of color on iDevices, but it's worth a try din siguro.

 

performance wise, slightly better.... probably if i have to rate it, it is around 15-20% better performance wise..... it depends on the specs of your computer.

i still find ubuntu's performance better imho.

for me, i was able to max out my pc resources by installing OsX (hackintosh), using geekbench, etc, the results were consistently higher compared to when i am on winblows or any linux platforms using the same exact hardware.

Hence, i boot pure OsX nowadays :-)
