blue afternoon- jun 18 05

shot this at matapang beach. this is an afternoon shot i chose as a pseudo-night time photo. since its very difficult to shoot a night scene. VERY VERY!
i can do it but the end result isn't all that great.

its early wednesday morning and as usual i'm still awake. the life of the insomniac for me.
usually, i should be working on editing some of my photos for uploading into my photo site. i always feel good when a friend from off island see's my photos. some wish they could be here and some wish they could come back. either way, i win. they inspire me to try more and more.

wednesday is usually the Night market at the chamorro village. lots of food and lots of people selling island related items. what's nice also is a couple of the island dance groups perform. i usually go there just to practice my techniques. shooting with the most minimum of light to try to capture the best possible image i can. its harder than just pressing a button, any monkey can do that. what it really entails is understanding the current environment, assesing the technical values to get the best photo, light sensitivity, framing, determining average distance of camera to subject, etc... there's taking a photo which usually comes out mediocre and there's the well thought out photo that seems to come out at you and draws you in. thats the main difference.

here are two photos from the night market. i hope some of you who haven'thad a chance to visit there will check it out.
