When some friends invited me to go karting at Speedzone a few weeks back, visions of NFS and Gran Turismo started playing in my head. When we actually got to go racing, it’s then that you realize how hard racing really is. But the adrenaline rush was weeeeeeelllll worth it :)

Getting my need for speed fix

These were taken by my girlfriend. She’s got an eye for all things good looking no? hehe :) If AdSense cooperates, I’m looking to upgrade to a Nikon D70s come Christmas.

I like this shot because it’s one of those “there’s-a-God” shots.

Happy Mother’s Day to the bestest mom in the wholest widest world! :) Love you!

Note: The complete Cabangan, Zambales photo gallery can be viewed here.

There are still quite a few spots that hold that old-time charm and Cabangan in Zambales is one of them. Cabangan’s rolling topography is dotted with mango farms but the main attraction would have to be its sandy coastline. The 4 towns of San Antonio, San Narciso, San Felipe and Cabangan all face the South China Sea and are certified surfing destinations for both local and international waveriders.

After a few miscarriages, the Puerto Galera trip finally pushed through. Twas my first time to Puerto Galera and I enjoyed immensely, a welcome respite from my flakey urban existence. Read the rest of this entry »

Before I forget (and lest my relatives hang me for not sharing the photos to the world), here are the links to my December vacation in Isabel, Leyte:
12/23, 12/24, 12/25, 12/26, 12/27, 12/28, 12/29 and 12/30.

I must say Sharm impressed me and the entire family. That was one of the more memorable New Year dinners we had. You made Christmas complete :)

I’m coming home to Leyte. This will be a special Christmas for the family as my one and only sister is getting married. This post will be a photo diary of events leading up to the New Year. You can move between pages through the page links below.

Pure Terror: Christmas. Toy Kingdom. Domestic Airport (12/23/2004)

It’s really funny how they always try to package the Christmas season as the time of peace and goodwill. Try wading through endless waves of crying kids and ill-mannered parents at Toy Kingdom. Read the rest of this entry »

This digital photography stuff is hard. I’ve been playing with my new camera for the past 2 days to no success. I’ve set the camera to its lowest quality setting since that’s probably the setting I’ll be using more. That and the night preset mode. Sleepless Leyte Christmas nights here I come.

I took a few night shots of the area around Antel Global in Julia Vargas tonight while waiting for my parking lift mate to arrive. Apologies for the bland choice of subjects. One can’t be too picky in Parking Level 5. Read the rest of this entry »

Boss Eric sent me a few photos using the FinePix S5100. Turns out he was at one of the matches of the recently concluded WTA Tour Championships in LA. Can you say Maria Sharapova? Yup, that’s her. Still not convinced? You can confirm it here and here.

Looks like the 10X optical zoom feature was put to good use. Can’t wait to get my hands on that baby (I meant the digital camera, lest you have other obscene thoughts).
