My Flickr Explore

August 2, 2007

Well, of course there's nothing to brag about when only 2 of your photos made it to the Flickr Explore. There are others whose almost every photo lands on the Explore page. Nonetheless, I take pride in these photos. After all, not all "flicktrs" have photos in the prestigious page.

Both were taken in 2006 with my beloved Canon Powershot A95 - the camera that introduced me to the world of photography. Nothing fancy, nothing complicated just a point 'n shoot with creative controls: it's the indian, not the pana.

DLSU Yuchengco Hall

Architecture was the first subject I tried in photography. I shot hundreds of buildings with my A95. I am particularly drawn to buildings with posh modern style and at the other end of the style spectrum, classical design and those tall, intricately designed columns are a must. The Don Enrique T. Yuchengco Hall's classical exteriors contrast the modern interiors of the building.

Bed of Books
If there is a bed of roses, why not a bed of books? What a crazy idea. But book groups in Flickr dig it. For some odd reason.
