Getting my groove back


Its been over a month already since I pick up my Camera and did some serious shooting and even doing some snap shots with my point and shoot digicam even with my Lomo cameras. The last time I post some pictures on my online gallery was last February 16 and those pictures were shot during the first part of Feb. There are some unfinished rolls in my Film SLR and I just recently finish a roll in my LCA which I load during the last week of Feb. Its not that I lose interest in Photography I just cannot explain why I’m not shooting for the moment. I usually experience this every year when there are months that I just don’t feel it like shooting.

The photo above is one of the photo in my recently completed roll of film thanks to the trip to the beach early Friday morning which I managed to finish the roll. Hopefully in the coming days I will get my groove again and came up with some photos.

Around the world in one camera update

Its almost two years when I joined a project called "Around the World in One Camera. In case you don't know whats this project all about.

"The whole idea is to create a photo album from images taken by 36 people from around the world using the same “travelling” camera and a single roll of film. Every participant will receive the camera by mail along with a notebook. Using that camera the participant will take a photograph of anything he or she wants and will have to submit a short note, explaining his or her choice of what has been photographed. When it’s done, the camera will be sent to the next participant. The whole process will be repeated until the roll is done."

When i joined this project I thoought it will be over in a few months or less than a year but it took a long time before the traveler (as what we call the camera we are using) to reach other user. We also thought that last year that the project will be a failure as the traveler was lost for a few weeks only to resurface again. Now we have to start the project again. Just got an email from the organizer of the project that I'll be next in line to have the traveler and shoot so I'll get a hold of it in a few weeks will keep you updated when Its i my hands already till then.
