Ride With Judy

Once upon a time I had a "Love and Hate" relationship with the camera. "Hate",  because I don't want to be the subject of the pictures. My friends then gave me the idea that instead of being the subject, why not be the one to capture the moment. Eventually the camera and I developed a "Love" relationship.

From that brilliant idea I created my photo blog "Ride with Judy" on September 2010. It contains all the photos I took out of nowhere unedited and accompanied by a certain quotation that I think best fit with the picture. 

Eventually, I made it private at the same time I made a decision that 14th Street can only be viewed by invited readers only. That is because of a certain incident. But now, I am embracing a new life slowly and surely, I would like to go back to something I love doing. Taking pictures in a point and shoot manner but at least, I captured the moment.


There are three phases to awareness: To look, to see and to perceive. 
A camera looks,
A mind sees,
A heart perceives.

    Photography is fun, you just have to find excellent subjects. Common stuff include nature, especially walang kapagurang sunset. Haha!

    Try to capture stories from mundane things around you.

    Darling Mayenhaha! I don't update it that much too. Busy much. I don't use an SLR with those pictures, sometimes I am using the camera of my phone cause camera is so bulky saka sobrang bigat pag dala ko everyday sumasakit ang balikat ko kaya minsa phone na lang.

    Sige simulan mo na. Bilis, kahit hindi mo siya ma=update masyado at kahit itago mo muna mga pictures, then you can use them later.

    Si Judy ay bukas na. ngayon ko lang kasi napansin na sarado pa pala siya! hahaha


    Musingan Pictures ko? Add mo na lang ako sa FB kung gusto mo ng limpak-limpak na nakakasawang pictures ko. Hahaha! Pero Caution: bawal matakot ah.

    Ngayon ko lang kasi napansin na sarado pala si Judy. Kaya naisip ko buksan ko na ulit, sayang naman kasi siya. Yung mga kuha ko jan, random shots lang. basta kuha lang ng kuha.

    Yung banner naman, they're made by my friend who is a Graphic artist. Kapag ginagawan niya ako ng banner palaging may camera at girl na nakabike kasi alam niya mahal ko yung 2 yun. Tapos simple lang din, sa Photoshop niya yun ginagawa saka sa Illustrator. Oo ako nga yung nag-aaral mag-motor, para masaya. hahaha!

    HalfCrazy Taking photos of mundane things is a great idea. I have them saved on my bro's computer. I'll post them soon.


    Kitkat Oh Kitkat, we're on the same situation. I love taking pictures instead of being the subject. I don't know why.


    Ratz Yey! I know. I have an extra bicycle so come and ride with me everyday. Love you sistah!
