Photobin: New Year's Day Shots

Photography by Ryan Macalandag

What better way for a photographer to start a new year than to do a photoshoot with friends and family. This was exactly what I did. To my amazement, I got a handful keepers from the day's shoot.

Photobin: Globe Telecom Bohol 2007 Calendar Shoot

Aldner, who works at the Globe Telecom Bohol Branch called me up last week for a photo shoot. Globe is to have an internal desktop calendar which will feature local celebrations in the Philippines. July, in that calendar, would be dedicated to team Bohol. Thus, we made a photo of them dressed up in "Sandugo" costumes.



We did the shoot at the back of the Dauis Church where there is a beautiful green lawn. We tried to include the stone wall of the church as backdrop but opted for a "more cleaner" shot with the green lawn as the background.

Lighting Info: ambient light, plus bare SB-600 left of camera triggered via Nikon CLS.

It's been almost a couple months now since the pageant. But,I never got around posting these pics yet. Anyways,Sandugo season is coming and news is the Miss Sandugo beauty pageant won't happen this year. Mayor Lim just won't allow it, sources confirm. A lot of people have been debating over this issue for the past week. Some are furious why it's not pushing through while some are quite happy.

Loboc, Bohol, Philippines -- Alfonso "Nong Ponso" Varquez poses in front of a mural bearing an old picture of the Loboc Band he once was a member of. Up to this day he still has a great passion for music thus making him the best choice to be the curator of the music section of the Loboc Museum.
