At about 7AM we finally pulled in to  Abra de Ilog Pier to begin our land journey to the town of Sablayan some 2 or 3 hours away.

Shots taken with a Canon Rebel 2000 + Kodak BW400CN.

I brought my film SLR with me today and I was just out of it. I didn’t shoot a single frame.

Down time.

So here are some more shots taken while strolling around Baguio City’s most dense artery, Session Road.

And so I’m back in the fiery pits of Manila though today wasn’t that hot thanks to the clouds.

Here are my feeble attempts at street photography, shot Friday afternoon at Session Road with my Canon Rebel 2000, mated with a 70-200 2.8 and loaded with Kodak BW400CN. I’m slowly starting to develop new composition techniques, trying to “see” in black and white.

No matter how gaudy Session Road gets, I am just simply in love with it. It’s always so busy with locals and tourists moving up and down, up and down.

I’m here in our Baguio office and I’m still in my film state of mind. Once I get this done, I plan to shoot some street stuff at Session Road.

This was shot at the gloomy halls below the Cape Bojeador lighthouse in Ilocos Norte.

Even if Baguio is old and stale, the chillier climate is very much welcome. Although I hear smoky-hot Manila is wet right now.

While doing some “summer tidying” of my files I saw this picture I took about November last year on a trip to Ilocos. I’m in a sort of film mood and lately I’ve been really itching to shoot some monos.

My shutter finger is itchy. Yearning to get out of the city yet once more.

Let’s go!
