Judging from the not so nice monitor here at an internet cafe here at Bora, i can imagine this capture is perfect Atty!...sayang nag ka salisi tayo, I arrived April 27=)

Avoid tilting Atty specially when your dominat subject is scapes...if those approaching subjects make the most of your foreground and becomes your dominant subject, then tilting will be appropriate...my two cents po=)

Copy, master. :) Thanks for the tip. I know the rule, just expressing myself here, hahaha! :D

Cokin filters po. ND8 on top, tobacco 2 gradient below. :)

I was lucky with this shot. There was a dawn wedding that day, and the hotel was still in the process of taking down the canopy. I begged them to keep it there until i had done a number of shots.

Thanks, sam!
Boracay has been shot so many times, and Willy's Rock maybe twice as much. But i've always wanted to shoot something differently, to my master's disapproval hahahaha! Don't get me wrong -- i wish he could critique and okray my pics more often. Critical comments would only make me better. :)

I guess your number one rule in photography is to break the rule, or have no rule at all. :) hehehe! Kudos to that! :)

Hello po, thanks for the inspiring words. I use Aperture 2, but the shots here were adjusted mostly just to reduce to reduce washouts (due to the sun) and black points. In layman's terms, minimal adjustment po. No sharpening, contrast et al.

Re filters, no training po. Photography is mostly either trial and error, or plain "let the soul take over the image".
