52 Week Project

Yeah I know I'm behind but what the heck. Rules can be broken in art anyway. I'll just be updating this post weekly. I've tried doing photo projects before all of which I failed to complete. Hoping for another ending this time around.

Week 4 - "Bokeh"

According to wikipedia, bokeh is the blur or the aesthetic quality of the blur, in out-of-focus areas of an image. Bokeh has been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light".

Week 5 - "Natural Light"

Photographer Mason Resnick defines natural light as the light that exists in the scene. Also known as ambient light, it means that no additional light was used to take the photo.
The natural light is enough to capture the subject's 
happy and bubbly character.

36 Days After

On September 2013, armed men of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) engaged the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) in Zamboanga City. Reason and motivation of the MNLF remain to be a debate. Until now different stories from different people are being told. For weeks, the fighting continued leaving thousands of people homeless. 36 days after the siege, I had the opportunity to see the aftermath.
