1. Take your camera everywhere you go.
2. Use it anytime - day and night
3. Lomograph is not an interference to your life, but part of it.
4. Try the shot from the hip.
5. Approach the objects of your lomographic desire as close as possible.
6. Don't think.
7. Be fast.
8. You don't have to know beforehand what you captured on film.
9. Afterwards either.
10. Don't worry about any rules.

First Lomographs
Here are some of my first lomographs from my Fisheye 2, took this using fresh Fuji Superia X-tra 400. I enjoyed shooting with bulb setting and multiple exposure, mostly outdoor.
For more lomographs using Fuji Superia X-tra 400, view my album in multiply.
Another film that I used is the Mitsubishi MX-III 400, expired 02/2006. Shoot indoor and outdoor during night time. The following are some of my samples...

Two more rolls that I've used are Konica Super Centuria 400, expired 05/2005 (view samples) and Kodak Max 400, expired 01/2002 (view samples).
Can't express the fun and excitement of seeing my firstlomographs. Lomography is really fun, it's a freestyle photography. You don't have to think, you can just shoot and shoot and shoot!

Toy Cams
Early this week, I was checking some stuff online when I saw the post about toy cams for sale. I checked on the site at multiply and I had fun browsing the products. He's selling used Jap toy cams for a very cheap price. Some are Php 800, Php 400, there's even a set of buy 1 take 1 for only Php 450. Imagine 2 cameras sold for only Php 450. Who would not want to buy those cams? There are also some cams worth Php 1,000 and up. Since then, I've been browsing the site and choosing which cams I would buy. I only alotted Php 1,000 to spend for toy cams.

Grow
I wrote this last Tuesday... during a cold, rainy night...
when I and some of my friends are in emo mode.
hay buhay!
ikaw ang buhay ko...
when I and some of my friends are in emo mode.
hay buhay!
ikaw ang buhay ko...
ako man ang buhay mo
pano kung hindi ikaw ang buhay ko
at hindi na ito ang buhay na gusto ko
kahit ako ang buhay mo
hindi mo hawak ang buhay ko
hindi mo pwedeng diktahan ang bawat kilos ko
buhay ko 'to at alam ko ang ginagawa ko
isa ka sa nagpasaya ng buhay ko noon
pero hindi na ngayon... ;(
buhay ko 'to at alam kong hindi ka na parte nito
panahon nang ayusin mo ang buhay mo
at ibalik sa kin ang buhay na dati'y akin lang
Everything change... that's one thing we must always keep in mind. We must learn and grow from experiences coz if not, we become stagnant. We must let things flow, let life move on and be vibrant. Sometimes there are people who wanted to have their lives move, see other perspectives in life, experience different things with other people, grow and learn from pain. There are people who wants their freedom, not to be free to have another relationship but to be free to control their own lives. Not imprisoned nor confined in one place and let someone else control your life for you. There are times that they just want to grow and mature on their own. A time they need for themselves, a time to fix their persona. It doesn't mean that you're being selfish and that you're depriving others to your world, but who knows this might be the key in order for a person to be ready to face the world. This might be the time that you can say that you're complete, that you're whole again after you've been damaged by people whom you have loved before. This time in life is very important and shouldn't be miscontrued but understood by many. It's better to set someone free and let her grow than have her selfishly.

College Friends
I was supposed to be out on a shoot... (with other group of friends)
Yesterday should have been a busy day... but no! I've decided to be with my college friends, spent a little time catching up. I opted out of the TF plan...(sorry guys!) and I wasn't able to deliver the shirts. (whaaa...)
We stayed at Fuzion in Greenbelt... I actually missed some of their stories coz I came late. Haha! But it was fun just seeing them and being with them even for awhile. Cheesy!
