2006 La Union Snapshots

Monday, February 25, 2008

It's Monday, and proclaimed a holiday in celebration of 22nd EDSA Revolution. No work. I should have gone to Baguio for the Panagbenga Festival. I should have... But now I'm stuck here in my small cubicle in the office. Looking at the schedule of the festival from this link, I could only reminisced those times when I went to Baguio and La Union, at Tito Tom's house. Finally, I decided to continue my 2006 Baguio City Snapshots that I had posted here a few days back. After all, I'm not going anywhere today.

From Baguio City, after we witnessed the Panagbenga Festival, we went down to Tito Tom's place in La Union. By that time, he and family lived in Paringao, Bauang. Along the way, while the bus we were on maneuvered to every corner, I was also very busy fingering the trigger. And these are few of the resultant photos down here. Not impressive, I tell you, but modest photos.


Kodak Z700 / Shutter Speed: 1/500 sec / F-stop: f/2.8 / ISO Setting: 80 / focal length: 7.2mm /flash: off / mount: handheld (Feb. 25, 2006 2:46pm)

The photo above is just one of the few scenic views along Naguilian Highway. To take a photo like this is even more challenging when you're on a moving bus. I used the faster shutter speed I can handle at 1/500 seconds combine with a wide aperture opening so I can get a sharper photo instead of a blurry one. The other one was posted sometime ago last year. It can be found from this link: http://travelogue.digitalrebel.ws/2006/11/panagbenga-festival-remembered-and.html.


Kodak Z700 / Shutter Speed: 1/90 sec / F-stop: f/2.8 / ISO Setting: 80 / focal length: 7.2mm /flash: off / mount: handheld (Feb. 25, 2006 2:50pm)


Kodak Z700 / Shutter Speed: 1/180 sec / F-stop: f/4.9 / ISO Setting: 80 / focal length: 7.2mm /flash: off / mount: handheld (Feb. 25, 2006 2:57pm)

Fishermen's Talk. Another photo below was taken at the back of Tito Tom's house. It's a nice La Union seaside back there with fishermen who would go out to sea to catch fish in the early morning or late afternoon.

Kodak Z700 / Shutter Speed: 1/350 sec / F-stop: f/6.7 / ISO Setting: 80 / focal length: 25mm /flash: off / mount: handheld (Feb. 26, 2006 11:13am)
