Cubao Republic: Composed Right From the Light Box

Saturday, May 9, 2009

I haven't had blogged for quite some time due to hectic work schedule. I didn't even finish yet my North Cotabato Adventure series. But now that I already have my own wireless broadband at home, I am now determine to continue publishing my travels and adventures in life.

I messed up my files when I get so busy at work. To resume with my most recent series would take a tremendous effort. While I am trying to organize my North Cotabato photos, I am momentarily running this photo essay of Cubao.

One eventful night of March 24, my friends and fellow bloggers Dennis Villegas and Sidney of My Sari-Sari Store wandered around Cubao to capture noteworthy happenings that can only be witnessed after daylight turns into darkness. As Pareng Dennis puts it, Cubao assumes a different personality comes night time. If you'd been to Cubao during the daytime, the photos to be featured here would be a different and colorful Cubao of the night time.

As the title of this photo essay suggests, the photos are composed right from my digital SLR. Other than resizing (for faster web display) and +10 color saturation (for deeper color enhancement), I will avoid cropping, noise-reduction, and overly post-processing for I believe that visitors/readers/viewers of this website deserve to see what I've seen. Simply put, "what I see is what you get" (from the WYSIWYG concept).

    Nice pictures. These pictures must have been shot from the cinema lobby of the Gateway Mall, right?
