My Six Steps to Photographing Architecture article

The Space Magazine cover

My latest article entitled, Six Steps in Photographing Architecture has been published in the latest issue of Space Magazine (August – October 2011 issue). Here, I give a simple outline of how to tackle this genre of Photography easily.

Pila: Heritage Town, Heritage Architecture, a travel and architecture article

The same issue carries my second article, this time on travel, focusing on one of the lakeshore municipalities of Laguna entitled Pila: Heritage Town, Heritage Architecture.

I photographed all photos in the two articles.

Mass at the mall in Tagbilaran

Other than the photo lecture that Zhuang Wubin will be conducting in Singapore, what I’m really looking forward to, and most excited about, for my photography work, The New Cathedrals, is this:

NOORDERLICHT 2011 PHOTO FESTIVAL!!!

Yeah, that’s the photo event in Groningen, The Netherlands. It’s the second time that I’ve submitted work for consideration and this time, The New Cathedrals was accepted, which was in line with the theme, Metropolis – City Life in the Urban Age. Looking at the list of participants, its a who’s who in the Photography world and I’m very much honored to be in the company of photographers that I have great admiration:

Peter Bialobrzeski (my mentor in Mapping Invisible Cities project, showing the slum dwellings in Manila and I was the one who accompanied him when he took one of the exhibited images)
Alejandro Cartagena
Jodi Bieber
Nadav Kander
Simon Norfolk
Sherman Ong
(met him during a photography workshop in Singapre)
Hans-Christian Schink
Munem Wasif
(had dinner with him in Malate when he visited Manila)

Unfortunately, the photo festival doesn’t have a budget for the photographer’s travel and that means, I won’t be able to be there during the opening, unless someone will sponsor round trip tickets.
