Team Pilipinas

Do you know any RP team members? Any sport? Hook me up! This is for the road to the SEA games and the Olympics!

Basketball crazy

I admit, I’m a basketball junkie. I can watch whatever kind of basketball game, and not be bored. I look for details, I look for plays and I look for the habits of each player on the court. Maybe I can be a scout… anyway, here are some basketball photos from the last week.

Mike Cortez against Patrick Fran

Sullinger on Alaska

Rosell Ellis on Washington

Jervy Cruz 23 points, 23 rebounds. I’d be smiling as well

Support OPM! Buy original CDs!

I am an avid supporter of local artists; visually or musically… I have been lucky enough to take photos of recording artists before they make it big and most of them actually do become famous.

and Jeli Mateo

good luck to everyone!

Mabuhay Magazine

When I was a kid, I remember having only two magazines in at my tita’s house where I used to stay every saturday to play basketball. When it was raining outside, I’d rummage through her collection of magazines. And there I discovered Mabuhay Magazine and National Geographic. Fast forward to two decades later, I’m there at the offices of the same magazine whose contents made me imagine what it would be like to be there, the exotic places and the treasures of the islands we call home.

Here are a few photographs from the past few weeks…

Gawad kalinga doesn’t want your money, all we want is your time.

Zero to hero. Impossible is nothing.

Language of the image

Basketball can provide various chances to produce images that can range from a pretty courtside reporter standing out in a basketball court or a high impact shot like a tiny player outjumping everyone else.
This week, our class is about the language of the image. After this one, there’s going to be less snapshots for me. I need more images that talk, that say something.

Depth of field

While this photo probably won’t be submitted along with my photo story, it still has something to do with depth of field.

Inside the studio, DOF provides added depth to the subject rather than just flat and plain lighting. In this photo, the front part (her eyes, face and hair are in focus) then from her nose till the back are blurred out.

Again face is in focus and the hair is slightly blurred out.

Technical data is ISO 100, 1/200 and f11. Focal length is 200mm.

Bokeh

Bokeh (from the Japanese boke ぼけ, “blur”[1]) is a photographic term referring to out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens. The aesthetic qualities of the bokehs produced by various lenses are open to dispute, but it is generally conceded that an out-of-focus background image can at the very least reduce distractions and emphasize the primary subject.

More than 15000 participants trooped to Quirino Grandstand last Sunday, July 1 for the national finals of the Adidas King of the Road.
